“…From 2013 to 2022 there were at least 10 undergraduate theses, 2 theses, and 2 dissertations that used the archaeobotanical approaches, ( phytolith, starch, and pollen) at Gadjah Mada University. Apart from that, there are at least four research publications conducted by Indonesian archaeologists, several of which used pollen and phytolith data (Alifah & Mahirta, 2021;Hidayah et al, 2021;Matori, 2013;Setyaningsih et al, 2019). In 2021 two publications give more detailed explanations of microbotanical analysis and its benefits (Alifah, 2017) and writing about the development of phytolith analysis (Pratama, 2020a).…”

“…Another archaeobotanical data that is rarely studied by Indonesian archaeobotanical researchers is Non-Pollen Palynomorphs (NPP). The use of NPP, especially for fossils from coprophilic mushroom ascospores in archaeobotanical research can provide information about the existence of fauna in the past, especially the types of wild or livestock herbivores (Setyaningsih et al, 2019). Nonpollen Palynomorphs are microscopic objects with organic walls whose sizes are in the range of 10-250 μm and can be found around pollen during the pollen-counting stage in the laboratory (Shumilovskikh & van Geel, 2020. This research aims to examine the development of archaeobotanical research in Indonesia and provides prospects on how archaeobotanical research can help to achieve archaeological goals, such as environmental reconstruction.…”

The application of archaeobotany has been increasing for the last ten years in Indonesia, especially for studying the prehistoric human occupation. Indonesia has incredible biodiversity in flora, and the application of archaeobotanical methods and techniques is essential for understanding people-plant relationships in the past. It is also able to support and complement archaeological results and interpretations developed from analyses of other types of material culture. This paper examines archaeobotanical research in Indonesia through available published literature. The result demonstrates archaeobotanical analyses strengthen and enhance the interpretations of archaeological data and highlight the biases in the application towards prehistoric sites. Our research suggests that more recent archaeological sites have great potential for the application of archaeobotany. This approach needs to be introduced in the early stages of all project planning and research so that suitable recovery methods can be utilized, and adequate time and finances for analyses are factored in. The availability of facilities, infrastructure, and human resources to analyze archaeobotanical data will bring more opportunities for analyses in this field.

“…They mainly feed on grasses and, less often, the herbs and leaves of many plants (Francis 2019). Domesticated water buffalo have been present in some parts of northern and western Indonesia for millennia for rice cultivation (Setyaningsih et al 2019). It is generally considered that water buffalo were introduced more recently into Indonesia's eastern islands under the Dutch colonial government's impetus and the Sultan of Bima (regional ruler) to enhance agricultural productivity in the eighteenth Century.…”

Large introduced mammalian herbivores, either as livestock or feral populations, can have important effects on vegetation and animals. Introduced herbivores can be of high conservation concern if they impact threatened native species in protected areas. We evaluated temporal and spatial trends in the relative abundance of introduced water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) and their potential to induce competition-related ecological and demographic effects on native rusa deer (Rusa timorensis) in Komodo National Park and the Wae Wuul Nature Reserve-two protected areas in Eastern Indonesia. To monitor ungulate population abundances and population growth rates of water buffalo and rusa deer, we counted their dung (a validated abundance index in these two species) along 350 permanently marked transects at 11 sites over five islands annually between 2003 and 2018. Water buffalo dung abundance varied with the site, year and their interaction. Water buffalo dung was most abundant within the Wae Wuul Nature Reserve, and their dung abundance varied considerably among sites in Komodo National Park. Water buffalo site-specific dung abundances fluctuated independently over time. In areas of high water buffalo dung densities, rusa deer altered resource use and had lower population densities than sites without water buffalo. Rusa deer dung-based population growth rates were negatively influenced by density-dependent regulation and only weakly by water buffalo dung density. Currently, managers do not control water buffalo in either protected area. Nevertheless, the benefits of control could reduce water buffalo effects on vegetation composition, watercourse integrity, or the potential to transmit disease into native ungulates.

“…Temuan tembikar dari masa Neolitik hingga masa Protosejarah di area barat laututara Lembah Kerinci bukanlah sesuatu yang mustahil sebagaimana penelitian terdahulu yang pernah dilakukan. Penelitian paleoekologi yang dilakukan oleh Setyaningsih et al (2019) (Budisantosa 2015c, 8). Situs ini berjarak dalam radius 3,5 hingga 12 km dari lokasi temuan ladi kawasan baratlaut-utara lembah Kerinci.…”

Abstract. The Latest of Archaeological Finds in the Northwest-North of Kerinci Valley, Jambi Highland: A Preliminary Report. Last decade archeological research in Kerinci area, only focused on the south of Kerinci Lake. This region admittedly has archaeological finds richly and has been reported since the colonial era. The report was followed by research working comprehensively in that region eighty years after. The research revealed that archeological finds in the south of Kerinci Lake came from the neolithic to proto-historic era. However, the finds of earthenware fragments accidentally, have discovered the new information about archaeological finds in the north of Kerinci Lake or the northwest-north of Kerinci valley. The purpose of this research is to map the distribution and describing the character of archaeological finds in the northwest-north of Kerinci valley. This research utilizes a descriptive method worked in three stages, videlicet collecting, analyze, and interpreting data. In collecting the data stage collected the primary data and secondary data. In the analyzing stage, utilized qualitative analysis by noticing form, style, and technology attributes. This research revealed that the northwest-north of Kerinci valley area has artifact finds in the form of cord-marked earthenware, red slipped earthenware, and Chinese ceramics. Furthermore, found the carving-stones (petroglyph) too. Abstrak. Penelitian arkeologi dekade terakhir di kawasan Kerinci hanya terfokus pada kawasan di selatan Danau Kerinci. Kawasan ini memang memiliki tinggalan arkeologis yang cukup padat dan telah dilaporkan sejak era kolonial. Laporan tersebut ditindaklanjuti dengan melakukan penelitian yang lebih komprehensif di kawasan tersebut puluhan tahun sesudahnya. Penelitian tersebut mengungkapkan bahwa tinggalan arkeologis di sebelah selatan Danau Kerinci berasal dari masa Neolitik hingga Protosejarah. Namun, temuan artefak tembikar secara tidak sengaja di situs Siulak Tenang pada 2010, telah membuka pengetahuan baru tentang adanya tinggalan arkeologis di bagian utara Danau Kerinci atau bagian barat laut-utara lembah Kerinci. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui sebaran dan mendeskripsikan tinggalan arkeologi di barat laut-utara Lembah Kerinci. Penelitian ini bersifat deskriptif yang dilaksanakan dalam tiga tahap, yaitu pengumpulan data, analisis data dan interpretasi. Pada tahap pengumpulan data, dilakukan pengumpulan data primer dan data sekuder. Pada tahap analisis data digunakan analisis kualitiatif dengan memperhatikan atribut bentuk, gaya, dan teknologi. Penelitian ini mengungkapkan bahwa kawasan baratlaut-utara Lembah Kerinci memiliki tinggalan artefak berupa tembikar tatap tali, tembikar slip merah, dan keramik Cina. Selain itu, juga ditemukan -batu bergores (petroglif).
