Abstract

The Correlation Between Da’a Ethnic in the Hinterlands of Gawalise Mountains,Central Sulawesi, with the Australomelanesid Population in Sulawesi. Evidences of inhabitationby early modern human that characterized by Australomelanesid race have been found in mostregion of Indonesia. They lived in this archipelago, including Sulawesi, approximately 60.000-40.000 years ago. Caves occupation in the Maros-Pangkep and open sites of settlement landscape atPasso, Minahasa, have showed us the evidence of their existence in South and North Sulawesi at thattime. But, in Central Sulawesi their traces were not present. This fact is what makes us interested inconducting this study. The goal of this study is to find the traces of early modern human populationswith Australomelanesid race character in Central Sulawesi. The method for this study is a surveymethod using ethnoarchaeology. In this research we concluded that one of the ethnic that inhabit thisregion, the Da’a, has the character of Australomelanesid race. It is possible that they are descendantsof the early modern human populations. But in the present time, they are using the Austronesian cultureand language, which introduced to Sulawesi when their speakers migrated to this island nearly 4000years ago. The discovery of this Da’a ethnic tribe not only has produced a new hipothesis, but alsostrengthen the former hipothesis about the existence of modern human at Sulawesi. Abstrak. Bukti adanya hunian dan budaya manusia modern awal berkarakter ras Australomelanesid di Indonesia adalah bahwa 60.000-40.000 tahun yang lalu telah ada jejak hunian di sejumlah kawasan di Indonesia, termasuk ke wilayah Sulawesi. Hal ini terlihat dari bukti-bukti hunian gua-gua di kawasan Maros-Pangkep di Sulawesi Selatan dan hunian situs bentang alam terbuka di Passo, Minahasa (Sulawesi Utara). Akan tetapi jejak hunian itu tidak ditemukan di bagian Sulawesi lainnya seperti di Sulawesi bagian tengah. Hal inilah yang membuat penulis tertarik untuk melakukan penelitian ini. Tujuannya untuk mengetahui jejak kehadiran populasi manusia modern awal yang berkarakter ras Australomelanesid di Sulawesi bagian tengah. Metode yang digunakan adalah metode survei melalui kajian atau pendekatan etnoarkeologi. Hasil yang diperoleh adalah menemukan etnik Da’a yang memiliki karakter ras Australomelanesid yang diduga merupakan sisa-sisa populasi manusia modern awal. Akan tetapi dalam kehidupannya sekarang budaya dan bahasanya sudah menggunakan budaya dan bahasa Austronesia yang masuk ke Sulawesi sekitar 4000 tahun yang lalu. Dengan ditemukannya komunitas etnik Da’a ini menghasilkan hipotesis.

Abstract. Prehistoric Religion Development: Gayo Communities Tradition. Religion lived out by Gayo communities has been practiced since the prehistoric period. The religion of that period isevidenced from remains of activities, among others from burial remains at Loyang Mendale and Loyang Ujung Karang Sites. Burial patterns and funeral gifts are the most apparent evidences of theexistence of religion concept during the prehistoric period. The process shows a development from simple form to more complex ones, but some aspects of ancient religion can still be found in laterperiods. In an attempt to understand it, identification of archaeological remains in forms of burial remains such as human remains, artifacts, and features are used as the focus of study, and ethnoarchaeological approach will be employed in this study on the concept of religion. Thus, in general it can be said that this attempt to understand religion will use inductive flow, which is part of qualitative research method. Interviews will also be carried out to acquire concepts of ancient religions that are still recognized among the Gayo communities. This method will generate a comprehension on religions from the prehistoric period until nowadays, with ancient conceptions that are still known among contemporary communities. Abstrak. Keberadaan religi pada masyarakat Gayo sudah berlangsung sejak masa prasejarah. Pemahaman religi pada masa itu diketahui dari sisa aktivitas yang di antaranya masih dikenali dari sisa penguburan di Situs Loyang Mendale dan Loyang Ujung Karang. Pola penguburan dan bekal kubur di situs dimaksud merupakan hal yang paling jelas menunjukkan adanya konsep religi di masa Prasejarah. Di dalam prosesnya telah menunjukkan adanya perkembangan dari bentuk yang sederhana ke hal yang lebih kompleks, namun beberapa bagian dari religi lama tampaknya masih dianut hinggake masa-masa kemudian. Untuk memahami perkembangan religi tersebut, maka identifikasi tinggalan arkeologis, baik yang berupa sisa penguburan kerangka manusia, artefak ataupun fitur menjadi pusat kajian. Dalam konsep religi akan dilakukan pendekatan etnoarkeologi, sehingga secara umum dapat dikatakan bahwa pemahaman akan religi menggunakan alur induktif yang merupakan bagian dari metode penelitian kualitatif. Sejalan dengan itu dilakukan juga wawancara mendalam dalam upaya mendapatkan konsep-konsep religi lama yang masih dikenal oleh masyarakat Gayo. Metode tersebut akan menghasilkan pemahaman religi dari masa prasejarah hingga kini dan beberapa bagian dari konsepsi lama yang masih dikenal masyarakat dalam konteks religi di masa kini.

Abstract. Natural Disaster in The Past in The Islands of Moluccas: The Knowledge and Development For Archaeological Studies. Natural Disaster is a phenomenon that is a part of Indonesia’s regional characteristics. Earthquakes, volcanic activities, and floods are periodical experiences for the people living on these islands. The geographical characteristics of Indonesia that is located in the collision area of active plates, and is part of global volcanic chains are the natural factors that make this region vulnerable to natural disasters. Hence, during the last decade alone a number of major natural disasters have occurred. Cultural historical studies of the region also recorded natural disaster phenomena in the past. Most of the events might have minor impacts, but several natural disasters of the past have resulted in loss of civilizations. As part of the vast groups of islands at the corner of the Southeast Asia Archipelago, the Moluccas faces similar situation. This region is vulnerable to natural disasters. Geographically constructed as an archipelagic region, the Moluccas had witnessed a number of disaster events in the past. This article tries to discuss the natural disaster phenomena in the Moluccas by framing the issue in the archaeological and cultural historical perspectives. Bibliographical study has been adopted as an approach in this research. This study found that natural disasters have become an inherent element in the cultural historical development of the region. Furthermore, several past events have become the key factors in the cultural historical process of the islands. It is expected that this preliminary research will positively contribute to the development of natural disaster mitigationmodel in the Moluccas. Abstrak. Bencana alam adalah fenomena yang senantiasa melekat dengan Kepulauan Indonesia sebagai suatu kawasan. Gempa bumi, aktivitas vulkanik hingga banjir telah menjadi pengalaman periodik dalam kehidupan masyarakat di wilayah ini. Karakteristik geografis Indonesia yang berada pada pertemuan lempeng-lempeng aktif serta bagian dari mata rantai vulkanis global adalah faktor natural yang membuat kepulauan ini rentan bencana. Tak heran selama satu dekade terakhir saja beberapa bencana besar telah terjadi. Studi sejarah budaya juga mencatat tentang fenomena bencanaalam pada masa lalu di Nusantara. Ada yang memiliki dampak minim, namun ada juga yang berakibat hilangnya peradaban. Sebagai bagian dari himpunan luas pulau-pulau di sudut tenggara Asia, Kepulauan Maluku dihadapkan pada situasi serupa.Wilayah ini juga rentan terhadap bencana alam.Dengan karakteristik wilayah yang juga arsipelagik, Kepulauan Maluku menjadi saksi atas aktivitas alam yang terjadi di masa lalu. Tulisan ini mencoba mengamati fenomena bencana alam pada masa lalu di wilayah Kepulauan Maluku dari sudut pandang arkeologi dan kajian sejarah budaya. Studi pustaka dipilih sebagai pendekatan dalam kajian ini. Hasil penelitian menemukan bahwa bencana alam telah menjadi fenomena yang melekat dengan perkembangan sejarah budaya di Maluku. Beberapa di antara bencana masa lalu tersebut bahkan menjadi faktor kunci dalam proses sejarah budaya di wilayah ini. Diharapkan kajian pada tahap mula ini dapat menjadi sumbangan pemikiran arkeologi dan kajian sejarah budaya dalam pengembangan model mitigasi bencana alam di Maluku.
