Abstract

Background: Fortresses are cultural heritages that hold significant historical and archaeological value, as they reflect the social, political, and military dynamics of the past. Baubau City, known for its rich historical legacy, preserves numerous sites that remain underexplored, including Sorawolio II Fort, located to the east of the Buton Palace Fortress. Objectives: This study aims to identify the archaeological remains at the Sorawolio II Fort site and to analyze the function of the fort based on physical evidence discovered on-site. Methods: The research employs a qualitative descriptive approach using the Theory of Archaeological Space as the analytical framework. Data were collected through field observation, documentation, and literature review. Results: The findings indicate that Sorawolio II Fort features two bastions, five windows, and 26 observation holes distributed along the fort walls. Additionally, six cannons were discovered, supporting the hypothesis that the fort served a defensive purpose. Conclusion: Sorawolio II Fort functioned as a defensive and security structure, as evidenced by its architectural elements and archaeological artifacts. This study underscores the importance of preserving historical remains in Baubau City. Keywords: Sorawolio II Fort, archaeological space, historical remains, defense, Baubau City, bastion, cannon

Abstract

Background: The Buton Palace Fortress is one of the most significant heritage sites of the Buton Sultanate, with physical remains such as fortifications, cannons, and royal tombs that still reflect the power and socio-political structure of the former sultanate. Objective: This study aims to identify and describe the archaeological remains in the form of sultans’ tombs located within the Buton Palace Fortress complex. Methods: The research employs an environmental approach, utilizing data collection techniques such as field observation, literature review, interviews, and documentation. The data were analyzed using morphological and contextual approaches. Results: The findings reveal that the Buton Palace Fortress continues to symbolize the enduring legacy of the Buton Sultanate, as evidenced by the preserved structures and royal tombs within the fortress. The spatial distribution of the tombs is irregular, influenced by the personal wishes of royal families to be buried within the fortress and by the political context of the respective periods. Conclusion: The sultans' tombs within the Buton Palace Fortress represent a continued symbol of royal authority and sacred values in local culture. The irregular distribution pattern of the tombs reflects social and political factors that influenced burial placement.
