Abstract

Abstrak. Pada saat masyarakat penutur bahasa Austronesia datang di Kepulauan Indonesia, kawasan ini bukanlah suatu daerah kosong tidak berpenghuni. Beberapa pulau di Kepulauan Indonesia telah dihuni oleh populasi lain. Akibat adanya kontak antar-komunitas tersebut mengakibatkan proses adaptasi, inovasi, dan interaksi budaya yang khas sebagaimana tercermin pada perkembangan teknologi alat kerang, teknologi pelayaran dan domestikasi hewan yang dikuasai masyarakat penutur bahasa Austronesia. Tahapan proses migrasi masyarakat penutur bahasa Austronesia di Kepulauan Indonesia dapat dirangkum sebagai berikut: terjadi intrusi budaya baru di Kepulauan Indonesia yang dibawa oleh Austronesia. Akibat dari peristiwa tersebut, terjadi perkembangan budaya Neolitik di Kepulauan Indonesia, disebabkan oleh adaptasi, evolusi dan interaksi antara masyarakat pendatang Austronesia dengan komunitas Non-Austronesia yang telah menghuni kawasan ini sejak masa sebelumnya. Interaksi antar-budaya yang intensif menyebabkan integrasi budaya Austronesia dan Non-Austronesia di Kepulauan Indonesia. Kata Kunci: Migrasi-Kolonisasi, Austronesia, Kepulauan Indonesia, Adaptasi budaya. Abstract. Austronesian Migration and Its Implication on Cultural Development in Indonesian Archipelago. When Austronesian language speakers came to Indonesian Archipelago, this region is not an empty place but had already inhabited by other population. The unique processes of adaptation, innovation, and culture interaction of Austronesian people in this new region are reflected on the development of shell tool technology, navigation technology, plant cultivation and animal domestication. In summary, the stages of Austronesian migration in Indonesian Archipelago are as follows: Intrusion of a new culture that was brought to the Indonesian Archipelago by the Austronesian people, which caused innovation of Neolithic culture in Indonesian Archipelago due to cultural adaptation, evolution, and interaction between the Austronesian speakers (the newcomers) with the indigenous Non-Austronesian communities. Intensive inter-cultural interactions have created a cultural integration between the Austronesians and Non-Austronesians in the Indonesian Archipelago. Keywords: Migration, Austronesian people, Indonesian archipelago, Cultural adaptation.

Abstract

Abstract. In Coastal Central Java, archaeological research dealing with the Hindu-Buddhist period is almost always focused on the coastal area between Kedu and Yogyakarta, which was controlled by the Matāram Kingdom around the 8-9th Century AD. Research that attempts to investigate and reconstruct the social conditions of coastal communities during the pre-Matāram period has yet to be undertaken. This paper is such an attempt. It explores Hindu-Buddhist remains in the Batang District, a district which, we believe, was an important entry point for Hindu-Buddhist traditions prior to the emergence of the Matāram Kingdom in the hinterland of Central Java. Data collected through the survey, further archaeological data relevant will be conducted descriptive analysis to answer questions in the study. The survey results have identified a number of important findings such as statues, temples and inscriptions ranging from coastal areas to inland Batang. Based on the identification of a number of archaeological findings it apparent that the area in Batang already appear influence of Hindu-Buddhist long before the emergence of the ancient Matāram Kingdom around the 8th Century AD. Keywords: Archaeological survey, Batang, Hindu-Buddha, North Coast. Abstrak. Jejak awal Pengaruh Hindu-Buddha di Sepanjang Pantai Utara Jawa Tengah: Survei Arkeologi di Kota Batang. Penelitian arkeologi di pantai utara Jawa Tengah mengenai kehidupan masa Hindu-Buddha hampir selalu dipusatkan pada wilayah antara Kedu-Yogyakarta, yang dikuasai oleh Kerajaan Matāram pada sekitar abad ke-8–9 Masehi. Penelitian yang berupaya mempelajari dan merekonstruksi kondisi sosial masyarakat di daerah pesisir masa pra-Matāram selama ini belum pernah dilakukan. Karya tulis ini berusaha melakukan eksplorasi pada masa pra-Matāram di Jawa Tengah, khususnya di Kabupaten Batang yang diduga sebagai salah satu daerah yang penting pada awal periode sebelum munculnya Kerajaan Matāram di pedalaman Jawa Tengah. Pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui survei, selanjutnya data arkeologi yang relevan dilakukan analisis deksriptif untuk menjawab pertanyaan di dalam penelitian. Hasil survei berhasil mengidentifikasikan sejumlah temuan penting seperti arca, candi dan prasasti mulai dari wilayah pesisir sampai pedalamanan Kabupaten Batang. Berdasarkan identifikasi sejumlah temuan arkeologi tersebut tampak bahwa wilayah Batang sudah mendapat pengaruh Hindu-Buddha jauh sebelum munculnya Kerajaan Matāram kuna sekitar abad ke-8 M.

Abstract

Abstrak. Salah satu wilayah yang mendapat pengaruh kolonial di Kepulauan Maluku adalah Pulau Buru, ditandai dengan pendirian sebuah benteng pertahanan sebagai salah satu pos pengawasan jalur perdagangan. Manifestasi jejak pengaruh kolonial ini merupakan indikasi awal peran wilayah Pulau Buru dalam konteks historiografi masa kolonial. Dalam konteks ini pula, diperoleh gambaran tentang kronologi dan pola okupasi masa kolonial di Pulau Buru. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini difokuskan pada data arkeologi dan data sejarah, sehingga metode analisis deskriptif dan metode analogi sejarah digunakan untuk menjawab permasalahan penelitian. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa bentuk tinggalan arkeologi yang masih dapat diamati di wilayah penelitian berupa: benteng, bekas bangunan gereja, meriam, rumah pejabat Belanda, kantor pemerintahan, bekas dermaga, mata uang Belanda, dan tempayan. Berdasarkan hal itu, dapat diketahui bahwa peran Pulau Buru pada awal okupasi kolonial berkaitan dengan kebijakan monopoli cengkih di Kepulauan Maluku. Demikian pula tentang pola okupasi kolonial, dimana pada periode penguasaan kolonial di Pulau Buru mengalami perkembangan dari Kayeli sebagai pusat pemerintahan awal. Akhirnya pada awal abad ke-20, karena pertimbangan lingkungan maka pemerintah Belanda memindahkan pusat pemerintahan ke lokasi yang memiliki kondisi lingkungan yang lebih baik, yaitu Namlea. Rentang kronologi di kota baru inipun berlangsung sangat singkat yaitu sekitar 40 tahun. Kata Kunci: Jejak, Situs Kayeli, Kolonial, Pulau Buru. Abstract. Traces of The Dutch Colonial (VOC) on The Buru Island (17-20 Centuries). One of the areas that gets the colonial influence on Buru Island Maluku Islands are characterized by the establishment of a fortress as one of observation post on the trade route in Maluku Islands. Manifestations of traces of colonial occupation pattern is an early indication of the role of the island of Buru in the context of colonial historiography. In this context, it is important to trace the material culture of the colonial period to determine the role of this region in order to obtain an overview of the chronology and pattern of colonial occupation on the island of Buru. Therefore, this study focused on archaeological data and historical data, so that the descriptive analytical method and of historical analogies methods are used to answer the research problem. The results showed that the shape of archaeological remains which can still be observed in the study area: the fort, the former church building, the cannon, the house of Dutch officials, government offices, the former dock, the Dutch currency, and jars. Based on that, it can be seen that the role of Buru Island in the early colonial occupation was related to the clove monopoly policy in the Maluku Islands. Similarly, on the pattern of colonial occupation, which in the period of colonial rule on the island of Buru have evolved from early Kayeli as the central government. Finally, in the early 20th Century, due to environmental considerations the Dutch government moved the seat of government to a location that has a better environmental conditions, that is Namlea. The range of chronology in the new city is also very short, which is about 40 years. Keywords: Trace, Sites Kayeli, Colonial, Buru Island

Bangunan-bangunan yang berfungsi sebagai rumah tempat tinggal pemilik kebun, bangunan kantor perkebunan, pengolahan getah karet, dan mausoleum, serta artefak genteng lama dan botol Eropa merupakan petunjuk keberadaan pemukiman di perkebunan karet Hindia Belanda di Bogor. Pola pemukiman perkebunan tersusun atas bangunan tempat tinggal pemilik kebun misalnya landhuis atau kantor perkebunan yang dikelilingi oleh tempat tinggal pegawai dan pekerjanya, tempat pengolahan karet. Adapun mausoleum ditempatkan berjauhan dari pusat pemukiman. Kata kunci: Bogor, Hindia Belanda, Pemukiman, Perkebunan Karet. Abstract. The Settlement Pattern of Rubber Plantation Areas from the Dutch-Indie’s Period in Bogor. This article is based on a notion that Bogor is an area rich in potency of plantations during the Dutch-Indie’s Period. However, there has not been an article that discusses what were the settlements in the rubber plantations in Bogor during the Dutch-Indie’s period like and how were life there at that time. Based on such thought, this article will reconstruct the settlement patterns in the rubber plantations through their remains, by conducting literature study, archaeological and environmental surveys in the research area, analyses, and synthesis between archaeological and historical data. The depiction of the settlement patterns in rubber plantations in Bogor can be physically proven through their archaeological remains. Buildings that were functioned as residences of plantation owners, administration building (plantation office), rubber-latex processing building, and mausoleum, as well as artefacts in forms of old roof tiles and European bottles are indications of the presence of settlements in Dutch Indie’s rubber plantations in Bogor. The settlement pattern consists of residence of plantation owner, known as landhuis, plantation office surrounded by residences of plantation workers, and rubber-latex processing building. Mausoleum is located far from the centre of settlement. Keywords: Bogor, The Dutch-Indie, Settlement, Rubber Plantation.

Abstract

Abstrak. Konflik warisan budaya Situs Gunung Padang merupakan isu baru yang muncul pada 2012, akibat perbedaan dalam memaknai warisan budaya. Bagi kalangan arkeologi, Gunung Padang hanyalah situs megalitik “biasa” yang dikenal dengan istilah punden berundak. Tetapi bagi Tim Terpadu Riset Mandiri, Situs Gunung Padang adalah piramida dan diduga berusia jauh lebih tua dari Piramida Mesir. Konflik horisontal Gunung Padang adalah konflik perbedaan paradigma arkeologi yang berdampak pada perbedaan pandangan dalam menafsirkan keberadaan tinggalan budaya. Konflik tersebut, merupakan konflik murni yang terbatas pada ranah kepentingan Ilmu Pengetahuan tanpa ada intervensi oleh berbagai faktor, termasuk faktor politis. Disisi lain arkeologi sudah lama menjadi ajang pergulatan pemikiran para ahli. Salah satu faktor penyebabnya adalah karena kajian pokok arkeologi bersifat post-facto yang terjadi tidak sekarang, tetapi ratusan bahkan ribuan atau jutaan tahun silam. Pada sisi lain, namanya pengetahuan itu sebenarnya bersifat relatif dan subyektif, karena telah dipengaruhi oleh berbagai kepentingan. Oleh karena itu, pengetahuan yang benar atau realitas masa lampau itu tidak ada, yang ada hanyalah pengetahuan masa lampau versi masyarakat masa kini. Perdebatan dalam ranah ilmu pengetahuan merupakan hal yang biasa. Jika konflik Gunung Padang dapat diselesaikan dengan benar, justru akan memberikan manfaat, salah satunya mendorong ke arah perubahan yang lebih baik. Kata kunci: Gunung Padang, Megalitik, Konflik, Perbedaan, Pemaknaan. Abstract. Horizontal Conflict Regarding A Cultural Heritage: The Megalithic Site of GunungPadang. Conflict about a cultural heritage, Gunung Padang Site, is a new issue that surfaced in 2012 due to different views in interpreting a cultural heritage. To archaeologists, Gunung Padang is a “typical” megalithic site, which is known as terraced structure. However, to Tim Terpadu Riset Mandiri (Integrated Team of Independent Research), it was a pyramid much older than the ones in Egypt. The horizontal conflict about Gunung Padang is a conflict caused by different archaeological paradigms, which impacted on different views in interpreting the existence of cultural remains. It is a purely conflict, which scope is limited to the domain of Academic purposes with no interventions from various factors, including political factor. Archaeology has long been an arena of debates by experts. One of the reasons is because the main study of archaeology is post-facto – does not happen in recent time, but hundreds and even thousands and millions of years ago. On the other hand, knowledge/science is relative and subjective in nature because it is influenced by various interests. Therefore there is no true knowledge/science or reality of the past. What exists is knowledge about the past according to present-day people. Debates in knowledge/science domain are natural. In fact, if the conflict about Gunung Padang can be resolved in the right way, it will be a benefit, among others it will lead to a change for the better. Keywords: Gunung Padang, Megalithic, Conflict, Difference, Interpretation.
