Abstract

Application Cultural Resources Management in Archaeology as a Discipline. Cultural Resource Management (CRM) attempt to manage the related cultural resource in respect with the interest of many parties. In broader sense, CRM positioned the people as an integral part of the process of managing archaeological resources. In order to be able to wisely accommodate such interest and prevent the eruption of conflicts, it is necessary to involve many parties--in planning, implementing until evaluating--in the CRM perfonnance. Therefore, the CRM performance tends to stress on the effort of problem solving and to seek the best and the most reasonable solution. In regard to the above context it is obvious that there is a difference between the performance of CRM and archaeology in general. The performance differences between the two are noted on new dimensions developed in the CRM perfom1ance which cannot be found in that of archaeology. The new dimensions are related to external aspects of archaeological interests such as economy, education, tourism, community, politics and regulation. In other words, the CRM performance concerns with the heterogenic interest of stakeholders. Such concept of performance is not observable in the broad-spectrum of archaeological pe1 ormance, which is likely to focus on the aspect of material culture preservation. Hence, the performance of CRM does not terminate at the preservation of material culture instead it also involves the benefiting of material culture in respect to the ability to disclose the social significance of cultural heritage in the life of the people, which is the essence of perfonnance CRM.

Abstract

The Weda Ceremony in East Java: New Studies on the Dinoyo lnscripsion. Most scholars are of the opinion that the inscription ofDinoyo, dating from 760 AD, is closely related to Chandi Badut. The god Putikeswara from the inscription is similar to the Siva lingga of the temple. The statue of Agastya mentioned in the inscription is also found at Chandi Badut (Bosch 1924, Poerbatjaraka 1926,. de Casparis 1942). Other scholars change their view. Based on the architecture, B. de Haan fixes the date of Badut around the 8th-9th centuries AD, later than the inscription. Vogler gives a date of the early tenth century which is according to him, later than Prambanan. Both still follow the view that the Dinoyo inscription is of a Hindu characteristic. After studying the inscription of Dinoyo, writer of this paper comes to the conclusion that it owns Vedic characteristics: the rites mentioned, like havis, caru and snana, the variouS'1Jriests and personage leading the ceremonies, Agastya a vedic priest, as the highest venerated personage while at Chandi Badut he is only one of Siva's followers, the rites which are carried out seem to be based on the Somayajfia
