Abstract

The Bongal site in Central Tapanuli preserves important archaeological evidence of early interactions between the Indonesian Archipelago and the Islamic world during the 7th–10th centuries CE. Excavations at the site have yielded a range of early Islamic artifacts, including glass beads associated with Fustat and Nishapur, Umayyad and Abbasid coins, rings bearing Arabic inscriptions, bronze perfume containers, glazed earthenware and glassware from West Asia, as well as medical and chemical instruments. This study aims to reconstruct the earliest presence of Islamic civilization in Indonesia by examining the role of Bongal as a port within the Indian Ocean trade network. The research employs a literature review, comparative analysis with archaeological findings from West Asia and Southeast Asia, and direct observation of collections housed at the Museum of the History of the Qur’an of North Sumatra. The results indicate that Bongal functioned not only as a distribution center for aromatic commodities such as camphor and benzoin, but also as a conduit for the transmission of technology, religious symbols, and Islamic material culture. These findings support the conclusion that the early Islamization of Indonesia occurred primarily through peaceful commercial interactions, positioning Bongal as one of the earliest gateways of Islamic civilization in the archipelago.

Abstract

The autonomous status of Malang City, established at the beginning of the twentieth century, brought significant changes to urban space and community life. These spatial changes are evident in the emergence of leisure spaces designed to accommodate a European lifestyle. The development of various forms of entertainment, supported by related facilities, represented an effort to serve the needs of the elite classes who migrated to Malang in large numbers. As a result, entertainment venues and leisure spaces fostered new forms of European-style leisure activities.This paper examines the formation of leisure spaces as representations of social class in Malang City, the relationship between leisure spaces and European communities, and the transformation of urban society in connection with leisure practices. The study employs historical methods and relies on primary sources drawn from contemporary newspapers. Publications such as Indische Courant, Java Bode, De Locomotief, and Soerabaijasch Handelsblad functioned not only as historical records but also as media for promoting leisure spaces. Using leisure class theory, this study analyzes the socio-cultural practices that took place within leisure spaces and contributed to the shaping of urban areas during the Dutch East Indies period. Dutch colonial power, as reflected in leisure and entertainment spaces, underwent significant changes following the collapse of colonial rule and its replacement by Japanese occupation. Nevertheless, Dutch colonial influence continued to shape the character of Malang. The social and urban transformations that occurred in the city reflected the growth of consumerism and entertainment culture. Ultimately, the emergence of entertainment venues in Malang became a symbol of colonialism, marked by distinctive patterns of inclusivity and exclusivity.

Abstract

Nitisemito was one of the indigenous entrepreneurs who successfully established a modern kretek cigarette industry in Kudus during the colonial era. Through the adoption of modern machinery technology, innovative marketing strategies, and large-scale labor management, the Cap Bal Tiga cigarette company grew into a giant in the cigarette industry of its time. Due to this company, Nitisemito's name has been enshrined as a symbol of indigenous entrepreneurship in the early 20th century. Nitisemito's success in managing his family cigarette industry demonstrates the potential emergence of an indigenous bourgeoisie amid a colonial economic structure that tended to hinder the growth of local entrepreneurs. However, the sustainability of this business experienced a decline in subsequent periods. This study aims to examine the process of the emergence of Nitisemito's business empire while explaining the factors underlying its collapse after the founder's death in 1953. This research employs historical methods, encompassing heuristic stages, source criticism, interpretation, and historiography. Historical data were obtained from archives, written sources, and interviews with Nitisemito's heirs. The results of this study indicate that the company's decline was not solely caused by changes in post-colonial economic conditions but also by internal family issues. These internal conflicts primarily related to leadership succession problems, the absence of an institutionalized management system, and tensions in relations among core family members and the extended family. This situation was further complicated by colonial political pressures on indigenous entrepreneurs and the lack of structural support for the sustainability of the Nitisemito family cigarette industry. The collapse of Nitisemito's business exemplifies the failure to form an indigenous bourgeoisie in Indonesian economic history.

Abstract

Slaves have been part of the social structure of 17th-century Batavia since its inception. The multi-ethnic and multi-religious slaves, who encountered Christian Europeans, shaped social life, particularly the religious aspects. This study aims to demonstrate the spiritual practices (Christian) imposed on slaves in 17th- and 18th-century Batavia. This study applies historical research methods using classical sources from the Protestant Church (Gereformeerde Kerk) in the books De Gereformeerde Kerken in Nederland and De Protestantsche Kerk in Nederlandsch-Indië. The results of this study show that slaves owned by Christians continued to fulfill their status and function as economic pillars of Batavia's society. On the other hand, slaves also received equal rights in the implementation of their religious practices. Slaves in Batavia converted to Christianity and freedman due to the Calvinist teachings internalized by the Protestant Church during this period, which proclaimed the equality and freedom of slaves. The slaves who became the personal property of Christian masters were those who lived out their domestic duties and activities. Christian slaves were provided with Christian instruction and moral standards to receive complete spiritual care, including the Sacraments of Baptism and Holy Communion. Therefore, the phenomenon of slavery in Batavia was not only a socio-economic issue but also raised Christian ethical-moral issues.
