Abstract

This paper examines microorganisms causing damage to rock arts in Leang Pettae, Maros Karst Area, South Sulawesi. The damage is indicated by a layer of white sediment on the cave walls and rock arts. This research aims to identify the microorganisms that cause the damage and to determine the preservation strategy for the rock arts. Microorganism samples were taken from the area around the damaged hand stencils and figurative paintings of babirusa (Babyrousa). The samples were cultured on PDA (Potatoes Dextrose Agar) medium at the Biology Laboratory of the Agency for Borobudur Conservation. The analysis identifies fungus from the genus Paecilomyces, which thrives in humid and wet conditions, and produces protease enzymes that affect the organic elements of the rock arts. To preserve the rock arts in Leang Pettae, it is suggested to control temperature and humidity, prevent air pollution, and limit human activities inside the cave.

Abstract

The nature of archaeological data which is limited in quality and quantity has spurred us to strive to obtain, record and interpret these data. The farther the time span is from now, the more limited the data that reaches us. Data about prehistoric culture, for example, has very limited material, let alone interpret it. One of the efforts that can be done is to make an analogy to today's society that still carries out these prehistoric cultural traditions. This effort is often called an ethnographic or ethnoarcheological analogy. By looking at the practices that apply to the community, it is hoped that it can explain the meaning, function, and so on of the archaeological objects of the supporting community.

Abstract

This study aims to examine carita pantun performances in ritual contexts as observed in the Baduy community in Kanekes Village, Banten, on several occasions between 2021 and 2023. Carita pantun serves as traditional epics narrated in oral tradition performances accompanied by kacapi musical instruments. Historically, carita pantun was fully integrated into the ritual calendar and performed regularly in various regions in Tatar Sunda including West Java and Banten. Over time, it has been increasingly narrated for secular entertainment. This study explores carita pantun performances that retain a sacred function and remain deeply integrated into the life of the Baduy community. By identifying the distinctive characteristics and observing the roles of speakers and listeners, the analysis emphasizes the importance of the oral text being highly dependent on the context of the specific ritual. The analysis further enriches the understanding of the nature and structure of the carita pantun performances as a traditional ritual in West Java and Banten.

Abstract

The Pasemah Highlands in South Sumatra host a significant concentration of ancestor-worship culture remains, particularly stone chamber tombs decorated with paintings. These monuments face increasing vulnerability due to natural factors, material degradation, and human activities. This study explores the integration of Terrestrial Laser Scanning (TLS) and DStretch as a digital documentation approach and examines its implications for adaptive preservation strategies. TLS provides high-precision three-dimensional spatial data for recording site geometry and structural conditions, while DStretch enhances faint pigments and motifs on chamber walls. The findings demonstrate that combining TLS and DStretch not only enriches archaeological documentation in both spatial and visual dimensions but also generates a comprehensive dataset to support evidence-based conservation. This integration strengthens adaptive preservation by enabling condition monitoring, documentation standardization, and community engagement in heritage management. The study highlights integrative digital documentation as a methodological innovation that contributes significantly to the sustainable preservation of ancestor-worship culture sites in Indonesia.

Abstract

The Karaton Sumedang Larang is a traditional institution committed to preserving the cultural heritage of its ancestors. Among its annual rituals is ”The Nyuguh Ageng Ngumbah Keris Pusaka,” a ceremonial practice of cleansing sacred heirlooms, particularly keris and other regalia, from impurities such as dirt, stains, dust, and corrosion. The heirlooms purified (dikumbah) include the Pedang Ki Mastak, Keris Kidukun, Keris Panunggul Naga, Badik Curuk Aul I and II, Keris Nagasasra I and II, along with other sacred artifacts. This study employs a qualitative approach, with data collected through literature review, field observations, and interviews. The Nyuguh Ageng Ngumbah Keris Pusaka tradition represents an act of reverence toward the ancestors by safeguarding and maintaining their legacies. Furthermore, the keris as a cultural heirloom constitutes a distinctive feature of the Karaton Sumedang Larang, symbolizing its identity and cultural continuity.
