Abstract

Celestial objects are always present in the form of symbols depicted in rock paintings, nekara, megalithic concepts, symbols of royal triumph and in conventional myths as can be found in the ethnographic data of several tribes in Indonesia. In general, celestial bodies, especially the sun, moon and stars are symbols whose rays are considered to be the source of life, the light of truth and justice that are expected to be able to illuminate mankind. In their development, the role of celestial bodies has shifted from a religious function to a global function that tends to be profane, which includes social and political functions. However, the presence of a symbol representing an infinite character always exists as a generator of feelings of togetherness and a deeper attachment than just a verbal formulation.

Abstract

Abstract Kuta Bataguh is administratively located in Bataguh and East Kapuas Districts, Kapuas Regency, Kalimantan Tengah. The research aims to reconstruct the characteristics of Kuta Bataguh. This research is using interpretive-descriptive method with the inductive reasoning. Data collection used surveys, excavations, interviews, and literature study. The analysis included environmental, stratigraphic, artifactual, spatial, and absolute dating analysis. Survey (surface and aerial) and excavation activities were carried out inside and outside the fence, both downstream and upstream of the Karinyau River. The results illustrate that the characteristics of Kuta Bataguh are a large permanent settlement that is split by a river. The fortified settlement of Kuta Bataguh was the leader residence of Ngaju community group (as the center of power). By referring to the pattern, function and extent of this settlement, it can be assumed that the local authorities in Bataguh are on par with early state in their socio-political organization. Abstrak Kuta Bataguh secara administratif berada di Kecamatan Bataguh dan Kapuas Timur, Kabupaten Kapuas, Kalimantan Tengah. Tujuan penelitian adalah untuk merekonstruksi karakteristik Kuta Bataguh. Penelitian ini bersifat deskriptif interpretif dengan penalaran induktif. Pengumpulan data menggunakan survei, ekskavasi, wawancara, dan studi pustaka. Analisis yang digunakan adalah analisis lingkungan, stratigrafi, artefaktual, ruang, dan analisis pertanggalan absolut. Kegiatan survei (permukaan dan udara) dan ekskavasi dilakukan di dalam dan di luar pagar benteng baik di arah muara maupun hulu Sungai Karinyau. Hasil penelitian memberi gambaran bahwa karakteristik Kuta Bataguh adalah tempat tinggal permanen yang luas dan dibelah oleh aliran sungai. Dengan berpatokan pada pola, fungsi, dan luasnya pemukiman ini, dapat diasumsikan bahwa penguasa lokal di Bataguh dalam organisasi sosial politiknya sudah setara dengan early state.
