Abstract

This article discusses the daily lives of the Chinese community in Indonesia after the proclamation of independence. Chinese community had a very different life compared to when Indonesia was still under Dutch colonial rule. Especially when the indigenous community (Bumiputra) voiced the adage "Siap Sedia" (Be Prepared) to ignite the spirit of Indonesian youth as motivation to defend Indonesian independence, so that Chinese community had to evacuate to secure and save themselves from the consequences of the conflict between the Republic of Indonesia and Dutch forces. This article aims to understand the conditions and daily lives of the Chinese community, considered as part of the colonial legacy. The article uses historical research methods including heuristic, verification, interpretation, and historiography. The article generates an understanding that there is a fluctuating dynamic in the lives of the Chinese community, especially in relation to the indigenous community.

Abstract

This article examines Kuta Bara, one of the vassal kingdoms of Majapahit, with a particular focus on its localization and historical significance during the reign of Hayam Wuruk. The nature of Kuta Bara remains a subject of debate among local historians in Jember, East Java, particularly concerning its location and function. Based on written sources, some scholars have identified Kuta Bara as a Buddhist religious site situated in Cakru village. However, recent archaeological discoveries have prompted a reassessment of these interpretations, necessitating a more comprehensive historical analysis. Employing established historical research methods e.g., heuristics, verification, interpretation, and historiography, this study reevaluates existing perspectives on Kuta Bara. It proposes that rather than a religious site, Kuta Bara functioned as a trading city located in the vicinity of Kraton village. By integrating both textual sources and material evidence, this article offers a revised interpretation of Kuta Bara’s role within the broader political and economic networks of Majapahit.
