Abstract. The Preneolithic Stone Artefact of Leang Jarie Site: The Oldest Evidence of Maros Point Technology in the Toalean Culture Region, South Sulawesi. Maros Point is one type of flake tool that shows characteristics of the techno-complex Toalean from South Sulawesi. Early emergence of the Toalean Culture phase is still debated, but most experts agree that this tool only appeared no more than 4000 years ago and is positioned include with pottery or Neolithic period. The Maros Point is considered to be made by the early occupants of Sulawesi after the arrival and contact with Austronesian speakers migration in South Sulawesi. The problem is that the results of the latest research are contrary to previous opinions. This paper aims to show new evidence of excavation at the Leang Jarie Site, as the oldest Maros Point technology ca. 8,000 years ago in the Toalean Cultural Region. Maros Point is made simpler with the support flake without using reduction pattern of flake-blade technology. Flakes with an asymmetrical shape can also be utilized as long as it have a pointed and thin tip. The "backed" retouched technique is also used to maximize flakes with steep sharp edges. Thus, the phase of Toalean Culture compiled by previous studies needs to be reviewed and the presence of Maros Points can no longer be used as a marker of the youngest phase. Maros Point is produced from the early holocene or Preneolithic Period and has possibility its continuation until Neolithic period. Keywords: Oldest Maros Point, Toalean culture, technology, South Sulawesi Abstrak. Maros Point adalah salah satu tipe alat serpih yang menunjukkan karakteristik teknokompleks budaya Toalean dari Sulawesi Selatan. Awal munculnya masih diperdebatkan. Namun, sebagian besar ahli sepakat bahwa alat ini baru muncul tidak lebih dari 4.000 tahun yang lalu dan diposisikan sekonteks dengan tembikar atau masa neolitik. Maros Point dianggap dibuat oleh penghuni awal Sulawesi setelah kedatangan dan kontak dengan migrasi penutur Austronesia di Sulawesi Selatan. Permasalahannya adalah hasil penelitian terbaru justru bertentangan dengan pendapat sebelumnya. Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk menunjukkan bukti baru dari penggalian di situs Leang Jarie, sebagai teknologi Maros Point paling tua berumur ca. 8.000 tahun lalu di kawasan budaya Toalean. Maros Point dari masa preneolitik dibuat lebih sederhana dengan dukungan serpih tanpa harus menggunakan pola penyerpihan teknologi serpih bilah. Serpih dengan bentuk yang tidak simetris pun dapat dimanfaatkan selama memiliki ujung runcing dan tipis. Teknik peretusan “dipunggungkan” juga digunakan untuk memaksimal serpih dengan tepian tajaman yang terjal. Dengan demikian, fase budaya Toalean yang disusun oleh penelitian sebelumnya perlu ditinjau ulang dan kehadiran Maros Point tidak bisa lagi dijadikan sebagai penanda fase paling muda. Maros Point diproduksi dari awal holosen atau preneolitik dan mungkin terus berlanjut hingga masa neolitik. Kata kunci: Maros Point tertua, budaya Toalean, teknologi, Sulawesi Selatan

Abstract. The study of the stone grave in Anakalang aims to find out the position of the stone grave in the Sumba community. The research methods carried out were participation observation, in-depth interviews, and literature studies. In-depth interview techniques were carried out on key informants, namely traditional elders, marapu leaders (rato), leaders of tengi watu (paaung watu), and the organizers of the pulling stone ritual. The results of the study show that the stone grave is a key artifact that has served as the identity of the Sumba people since hundreds of years ago. The stone grave in Anakalang has an irreplaceable function to date even though it began to be known as cement graves. The establishment of stone graves and the ritual of pulling stones are united in the daily lives of the Anakalang people with a background of religious conceptions which are seen as ancestral heritage that must be held firmly. The variety of megalithic cultures on Sumba has penetrated the time period in a theoretical way, and continues to this day as a tradition. Sacrifice, dedication, and respect for ancestors is the answer to why Sumba people, especially Anakalang, still maintain the existence of stone graves. Keywords: stone grave, megalithic, Anakalang, Sumba Abstrak. Penelitian kubur batu di Anakalang bertujuan untuk mengetahui posisi kubur batu pada masyarakat Sumba. Metode penelitian yang dilakukan adalah observasi partisipasi, wawancara mendalam, dan studi pustaka. Teknik wawancara mendalam dilakukan terhadap para informan kunci, yakni tetua/tokoh adat, pemimpin marapu (rato), pemimpin tengi watu (paaung watu), dan pihak penyelenggara ritual tarik batu. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kubur batu adalah artefak kunci yang berperan sebagai identitas diri masyarakat Sumba sejak ratusan tahun lalu sampai sekarang. Kubur batu di Anakalang memiliki fungsi yang tidak tergantikan sampai saat ini meski mulai dikenal kubur dari semen. Pendirian kubur batu dan ritual tarik batu menyatu dalam keseharian masyarakat Anakalang dengan latar belakang konsepsi religi yang dipandang sebagai warisan nenek moyang yang harus dipegang teguh. Ragam budaya megalitik di Sumba telah menembus batas periode waktu secara teoretis dan berlangsung hingga kini sebagai sebuah tradisi. Pengorbanan, dedikasi, dan rasa hormat pada leluhur adalah jawaban mengapa masyarakat Sumba, khususnya Anakalang, tetap mempertahankan keberadaan kubur batu. Kata kunci: kubur batu, megalitik, Anakalang, Sumba

Abstract. Paṇai Inscription: Analysis of the Location of Paṇai Kingdom. The Paṇai Inscription was found in the temple complex in Padang Lawas. There is the word "Paṇai" written on the insciption. "Paṇai" is also written on the Tañjore Inscriptions and Nāgarakṛtāgama. The two written sources informed that in the past Chola and Majapahit kingdoms wanted to conquer several regions in Sumatra, including Paṇai. Both show that Paṇai was a potential and important area so that both kingdom wanted to conquer it. However, it is not known exactly where the location of Paṇai as referred to the two written sources yet. The research of this case has not been done much. Some researchers try to find the answer. Most researchers study it based on written sources from abroad. In this paper, through the Paṇai Inscription, the interpretation was made that the location was Padang Lawas. This can be seen from the contents of the inscriptions that wrote “Paṇai”and describe the natural conditions in accordance with the location of its discovery. This conclusion was obtained by conducting an in-depth study of the Paṇai Inscription using research methods commonly used in historical research, namely heuristics, criticism, interpretation, and historiography. Keywords: Paṇai, Padang Lawas, Bahal Temple, Paṇai Inscription Abstrak. Prasasti Paṇai ditemukan di Kompleks Candi Padang Lawas. Dalam prasasti tersebut terdapat kata paṇai. Kata paṇai juga tertera pada Prasasti Tañjore dan kakawin Nāgarakṛtāgama. Kedua sumber tertulis tersebut menginformasikan bahwa pada masa lampau Kerajaan Chola dan Majapahit ingin menaklukkan beberapa daerah di wilayah Sumatra, termasuk Paṇai. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa Paṇai merupakan daerah potensial dan penting sehingga kedua kerajaan tersebut ingin menaklukkannya. Namun, belum diketahui secara pasti di mana lokasi Paṇai seperti yang dimaksud dalam kedua sumber tertulis tersebut. Penelitian terhadap kasus ini juga belum banyak dilakukan. Beberapa peneliti berusaha untuk menemukan jawabannya. Kebanyakan peneliti mengkajinya berdasarkan sumber tertulis dari luar negeri, seperti catatan perjalanan. Dalam tulisan ini melalui Prasasti Paṇai dibangun interpretasi bahwa lokasi Paṇai yang dimaksud, baik oleh Prasasti Tañjore maupun kakawin Nāgarakṛtāgama adalah Padang Lawas. Hal ini terlihat dari isi prasasti yang menyebutkan kata paṇai dan menggambarkan keadaan alam yang sesuai dengan lokasi penemuannya. Kesimpulan ini diperoleh dengan melakukan kajian mendalam terhadap Prasasti Paṇai dengan menggunakan metode penelitian yang lazim digunakan dalam penelitian sejarah, yakni heuristik, kritik, interpretasi, dan historiografi. Kata Kunci: Paṇai, Padang Lawas, Biaro Bahal, Prasasti Paṇai

Abstract

Abstract. Subak as Bali Civilization Fortress. The degradation of nature has potential to weaken the harmony between humans and their environment in a number of subak. Subak culture is only effective at the level of the superstructure, but the level of implementation is that subak have begun to be degraded due to land conversion, transfer of professions, poor economies, and young people who do not want to continue subak tradition. The purpose of this research is to see the existence of subak civilization then creates the policy strategy to develop Subak’s role as an ecological civilization tourism destination. The effectiveness method was used to see the existence of subak and AWOT Method as subak developing strategy to an ecoculture-tourism. Based on the results of effectiveness analysis and AWOT, it shows that subak culture as Bali civilization at the superstructure level is still exists and strong. However, at implementation level, there had been a weakening especially in urban areas. The implementation and preservation of the Sarbagita community based on the three components study was quite effective even for the superstructure component into a very effective category with an effectiveness value of 83.84%. So the components of the superstructure need to be maintained as a fortress of civilization in Sarbagita. However, the components of the social structure and infrastructure had quite low values, which are 59.55 percent and 50.32 percent respectively, which was included in the effective category but located in critical value. So it needs to improve level of social structure and infrastructure so that the three components of the subak civilization run effectively. Keywords: AWOT, subak civilization, effectiveness Abstrak. Degradasi alam berpotensi melemahkan harmonisasi antara manusia dan lingkungannya di sejumlah subak. Budaya subak hanya efektif pada tingkat suprastruktur, tetapi dalam implementasinya subak telah mulai terdegradasi karena konversi lahan, pengalihan profesi, ekonomi miskin, dan kaum muda yang tidak ingin melanjutkannya. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk melihat keberadaan peradaban subak, kemudian strategi kebijakan dalam mengembangkan peran subak sebagai tujuan wisata peradaban ekologis. Metode efektivitas digunakan untuk melihat keberadaan subak dan metode AWOT sebagai strategi pengembangan subak untuk wisata peradaban ekologi. Berdasarkan hasil analisis efektifitas dan AWOT menunjukkan bahwa budaya subak sebagai peradaban Bali di tingkat suprastruktur masih ada dan kuat. Namun, pada level implementasi telah terjadi pelemahan, terutama di daerah perkotaan. Pelaksanaan dan pelestarian masyarakat Sarbagita berdasarkan tiga komponen (sebutkan komponennya) yang diteliti efektif bahkan untuk komponen superstruktur masuk kedalam kategori sangat efektif dengan nilai efektivitas sebesar 83.84%. Sehingga komponen superstruktur perlu dipertahankan sebagai benteng peradaban di Sarbagita. Namun untuk komponen struktur sosial dan infrastruktur mempunyai nilai cukup rendah yaitu berturut-turut 59.55 persen dan 50.32 persen yang termasuk dalam kategori efektif tetapi berada pada titik kritis. Sehingga perlu dilakukan perbaikan pada tataran struktur sosial dan infrastruktur agar ketiga komponen peradaban subak berjalan efektif. Kata Kunci: AWOT, peradaban subak, efektivitas

Abstract

Abstract. The development of archaeological theory is inseparable from the evolution of cultural thinking in global society. This two way relationship can develop both synchronically and diachronically. Archaeological sites and artefacts are often used to legitimize various opinions and beliefs. In the colonial period, the interpretation of archaeological objects was often biased by racial, religious, and ethnic perspectives. The postcolonial paradigm emerged in criticism of white supremacy hegemony. However, even in the era of post-colonialism, prejudice practices continue to occur. The perspective of neo colonialism can still be found today. Archaeology, and the sciences generally, are considered a neutral field however, it regularly plays a central role in symbolic personifications of identity, pride, and political propaganda. Similar controversies can also be seen in the museum field. The discourse of repatriation between ex-colonies and 'universal museums' often devolves into extensive controversy. Resolution for many of these disputes remains out of reach due to the lack of equal cooperation and communication between respective parties. On the other hand, there are a number of countries that impose very strict regulations on foreign research (or ban it altogether) to protect their historical legacy. This policy unfortunately, often hampers the development of research and collaborations in the country. In effect, archaeology will never be completely separated from its various interested parties, and so efforts to harmonise academic, ethical, and political interests must be pursued.      Keywords: postcolonial archaeology, paradigm, nationalism, repatriation     Abstrak, Arkeologi dalam Pembentukan Negara: Persimpangan dalam studi postkolonial arkeologi. Perkembangan teori arkeologi tidak terlepas dari evolusi budaya berpikir masyarakat global. Hubungan yang saling mempengaruhi secara dua arah ini dapat dilihat secara sinkronik maupun diakronik. Situs dan artefak arkeologi kerap digunakan untuk meligitimasi berbagai macam kepentingan. Pada masa kolonial, interpretasi terhadap benda arkeologi kerap diselimuti oleh bias ras, agama, dan kesukuan. Paradigma postkolonialisme hadir sebagai kritik terhadap hegemoni berpikir supremasi kulit putih tersebut. Namun kenyataannya, bahkan di era pasca kolonialisme, praktik serupa masih kerap terjadi. Cara pandang neo-kolonialisme masih dapat ditemui hingga saat ini. Arkeologi tidak hanya ditempatkan sebagai bidang ilmu yang netral, namun masih menjadi salah satu isu sentral sebagai simbol personifikasi jati diri, harga diri, maupun propaganda politik. Kontroversi serupa juga dapat dilihat di ranah permuseuman. Wacana repatriasi antara negara exkoloni dengan ‘universal museums’ selalu menuai perdebatan yang panjang. Perselisihan ini kerap kali tidak berujung pada suatu solusi karena salah satu pihak cenderung menutup pintu dialog. Di sisi lain, tidak sedikit pula negara-negara yang menutup atau memberlakukan regulasi yang sangat ketat (atau bahkan melarang sepenuhnya) terhadap penelitian asing demi melindungi kekayaan sejarah mereka. Kebijakan ini tidak jarang menghambat berkembangnya penelitian di negara tersebut. Kenyataannya, arkeologi tidak akan pernah sepenuhnya lepas dari berbagai kepentingan, namun usaha untuk menyelaraskan kepentingan akademik, etik, dan politik harus terus dilakukan.     Kata Kunci: postkolonial arkeologi, paradigma, nasionalisme, repatriasi
