The Musi River treasure hunters are a group of people who depend on their prey for what they get. Aji YK Putra as a photo reporter did in-depth coverage of a group of hunters on the Musi River so that they got some data about how dangerous hunting is carried out by divers by risking their lives on a breathing apparatus assembled from a compressor hose. From the data studied through Roland Barthes' semiotics, several research results were obtained which described the field conditions of hunters when diving in the depths of the Musi River.
