By using some of the research results and thoughts of Effendi Ziwar (1987), Cooley (1997), Watloly cs, (2013) about the cultural facts of the islands in Maluku. This study contributes various thoughts about the character of the Maluku islands which are still dominated by the influence of Indonesian development with the influence of Malay culture with a continental approach. This research is qualitative by using interview and observation techniques. The results of the study prove that in the Reformation era which gave birth to the Regional Autonomy Law, it was not enough to realize the development of Maluku with an archipelagic character.

Review of International Geographical Education (RIGEO), 11(4), 1706-1720. doi: 10.48047/rigeo.11.04.158 Submitted: 20-03-2021 ● Revised: 15-04-2021 ● Accepted: 25-05-2021 © RIGEO ● Review of International Geographical Education 11(4), WINTER, 2021 Introduction Since the formation of Maluku Province with an archipelagic territory, it began when the RIS was merged into the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia on August 17, 1945 and after the rebellion of the Republic of South Maluku (RMS) was crippled in 195. Then the issuance of laws and government regulations governing the formation of regions- autonomous region in Maluku. Where the Central Maluku and Southeast Maluku regions were designated as level II autonomous regions based on government regulation number 35 of 1952. Furthermore, the Ambon area was formed by Law no 15 of 1956 (Lokollo, et al, 2005:33). Furthermore, the formation of other level II regions is carried out based on the preparation of laws and government regulations related to this matter. One interesting note about this history is; when preparing the regulation on the formation of the Maluku province with various level II autonomous regions, it did not take into account the island issue that characterizes the province. The Archipelago issue which actually refers to the context of the Maluku Islands province is not actually seen as a simple discourse, but it should be a national commitment in building identity as an archipelagic country. The principle of the Archipelagic State and Province is not only directed to see the reality of the archipelago as it is, but the existence of the archipelago must be an integrated development movement that comprehensively touches various aspects. The concept of existence here is intended to arouse our humanity's awareness that: Taking sides with the individual and society as an entity that is in diversity, should be touched by a concentration of serious service movements, perhaps it is time to facilitate various policies that are pro-archipelagic communities. The development of the Maluku Islands, according to the results of the study, has a variety of aspects in developing and managing various existing resources for the benefit of the local Maluku community itself. For example, how to build peace based on the Basusudara people, the Maluku people have very representative steps to build peace through local peace mechanisms (Watloly Aholiab et al, 2016:89-92). Likewise with other aspects or fields of development. In the fields of agriculture and fisheries, there is so much wisdom that can be maximized to empower and develop Maluku on an archipelagic basis. Even though according to the results of these studies, these aspects have always received less attention and priorities for their use in developing the Maluku Islands community (Koritelu, Pattinama, et al, 2019). Sociologically, the archipelagic region has implications for the distribution of society with archipelagic characteristic patterns that are not only transcendent but also contained in immanental facts. The character of our Archipelago community is, of course, different from that of the inland people who live on large islands. If in the interior communities who occupy large islands, their nomadic character is incarnated from their ability to explore and gather, adventure from one place to another within the geographical area of the island (Watloly, Aholiab, 2007:9). On the other hand, for the archipelagic people who live on small islands, their strength and the fact of nomadicity are determined by their ability to use the sea as a connecting bridge between islands. When the sea is used as a bridge between islands (Ralahalu, 2012), it is an undeniable sociological fact that: our island communities are always faced with various risks that are potentially dangerous for the safety of their souls when they are able to solve weather challenges amidst the simplicity of various transportation facilities. existing cannot be resolved. This is an ironic fact of the present condition of the island community in Maluku. This condition then encourages the island community in Maluku to only have their guts and courage to overcome the challenges of the saman. That is why the strength of the civilization of the people who always occupy the archipelago is actually collectively also characterized by the strength of their cosmology according to the characteristics of the region and its local potential. This is actually the context of our archipelagic society in Indonesia and particularly in the Maluku archipelago (Koritelu, 2004). That is why academically, the author tries to make a universal profile of the context of the people of the Maluku islands with various aspects that must be considered in the process of developing Maluku in the future. Mapping the profile of the island community is very important because often the weakness of reforming the political structure, the bureaucratic structure of the government in Maluku is constrained by the problem of cultural diversity, social issues result in a wrong approach to the plurality of the archipelago community in Maluku. This becomes important, if we ourselves begin to think about how to build and direct the development of Maluku to achieve a degree of human civilization that we deserve to be proud of, both in the economic, political, power bureaucracy and defense and security sectors. The challenges of the times in the context of the archipelagic community that the author refers to here do not only refer to the problem of limited means of transportation and communication technology at sea, but objectively it is also intended to show that the biggest and most serious 1707 © RIGEO ● Review of International Geographical Education 11(4), WINTER, 2021 problems in the archipelagic community in Maluku are also determined by how prepared the character is. their local communities face a variety of external stimuli which will inevitably bring them together in a dynamic dynamic of unending linkage. Specifically for this last field, in the process of developing the Maluku region it is often constrained by various factors, especially the span of control which is universally a trigger factor for various weaknesses that further distance the government and various other stakeholders' targets to develop Maluku according to the existing character of the archipelago objectively. The complexity of building Maluku is also due to the plurality of local characteristics of each island and region. Therefore, how to build Maluku with an archipelagic character is a very interesting theme to be discussed academically. Theoretical Basis The concept of the inter-island sea in the understanding of the islanders in Maluku is not a chasm that separates their existence, but on the contrary, the sea that separates the island from the island is actually considered as a connecting bridge between islands (Ralahalu, 2012:32). Whereas the main challenge for archipelagic development in Maluku is not the majority of its territory which consists of 92% of the sea but on the contrary the existence of humans and islanders is ignored in the practice of island development in Maluku. This means that for the people of Maluku the Sea itself is their present throughout the ages and at any time. This is further clarified by an idea that relatively shows that: the self-concept of the archipelagic community is not a scientific (academic) concept that is formulated in the form of a scientific document, because it is more shown in the form of a self-reflection with the expression of feelings and their respective language plays. So that it can always be found that the self-expression of the islanders is reflected in the form of character, beliefs and the depth and breadth of a personality that is unique and different from one another. This is the real existence of the people of the Maluku islands (Watloly, 2013:270). The character of the Maluku islands actually rests on a form of difference that enriches the characteristics of social and cultural behavior that differ from one another. Because of this awareness of the differences in various aspects of life, the people of the Maluku islands tend to respect each other's unique forms of their various life systems with their own characteristics. For example, in terms of respect for land ownership. In general, Maluku islanders have 4 land ownership systems, namely: first: village-owned land (state land), second: clan-owned land (fam), third: house-owned land (dati land) and four: private land owned by the head of the family (heritage land). The fourth form is rarely found in rural areas, namely individual property rights, eigendom land, which was purchased from the Dutch government during the Colonial Age (Cooley, 1987:163).

Peterson Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Peter V. Lape Department of Anthropology Trade and exchange exerted a powerful force in the historic and protohistoric past of Island Southeast Asian communities. Exchange and interaction are also hypothesized to have played an important role in the spread of new technologies and lifestyles throughout the region during the Neolithic period. Although it is clear that interaction has played an important role in shaping Island Southeast Asian cultures on a regional scale, little is known about local histories and trajectories of exchange in much of the region. This dissertation aims to improve our understanding of the adaptive role played by exchange and interaction through an exploration of change over time in the connectedness of island communities in the Banda Islands, eastern Indonesia. Connectedness is examined by measuring source diversity for two different types of archaeological materials. Chemical characterization of pottery using LA-ICP-MS allows the identification of geochemically different paste groups within the earthenware assemblages of two Banda Islands sites. Source diversity measures are employed to identify differences in relative connectedness between these sites and changes over time.

  • Religious Specificities in the Early Sultanate of Banten
    Religious Specificities in the Early Sultanate of Banten (Western Java, Indonesia) Gabriel Facal Abstract: This article examines the religious specificities of Banten during the early Islamizing of the region. The main characteristics of this process reside in a link between commerce and Muslim networks, a strong cosmopolitism, a variety of the Islam practices, the large number of brotherhoods’ followers and the popularity of esoteric practices. These specificities implicate that the Islamizing of the region was very progressive within period of time and the processes of conversion also generated inter-influence with local religious practices and cosmologies. As a consequence, the widespread assertion that Banten is a bastion of religious orthodoxy and the image the region suffers today as hosting bases of rigorist movements may be nuanced by the variety of the forms that Islam took through history. The dominant media- centered perspective also eludes the fact that cohabitation between religion and ritual initiation still composes the authority structure. This article aims to contribute to the knowledge of this phenomenon. Keywords: Islam, Banten, sultanate, initiation, commerce, cosmopolitism, brotherhoods. 1 Banten is well-known by historians to have been, during the Dutch colonial period at the XIXth century, a region where the observance of religious duties, like charity (zakat) and the pilgrimage to Mecca (hajj), was stronger than elsewhere in Java1. In the Indonesian popular vision, it is also considered to have been a stronghold against the Dutch occupation, and the Bantenese have the reputation to be rougher than their neighbors, that is the Sundanese. This image is mainly linked to the extended practice of local martial arts (penca) and invulnerability (debus) which are widespread and still transmitted in a number of Islamic boarding schools (pesantren).

F., MALLE D., LATUPEIRISSA C. Ch. E. and SIWA I. P. Department of Animal Husbandry, Faculty of Agriculture, Pattimura University Abstract Maluku has been well known as an archipelagic province consisting of small islands which are rich in natural resources such as exotic animals. Moa buffalo, Lakor goat, and Kisar sheep are local genetic resources of livestock from Maluku which have been endorsed by the Ministry of Agriculture of the Republic of Indonesia to be protected, conserved, and sustainably utilized for human welfare purposes. These three species have been a part of the local people life as food, income, savings, and organic fertilizer sources. Formulation of the Grand Design for the development of these species was completed in 2013, which includes some strategic policies for the development. Real follow-up actions in forms of research should be designed covering various aspects to accelerate the achievement of the development of these potential local livestock. The research aspects that should be considered are local human resource capacity strengthening, genetic quality improvement, animal feedstock development including local forage and pasture quality improvement, animal diseases control, animal waste-based bioenergy development, product and post-harvesting handling, and policy and regulation aspects.

Introduction 1. As is generally known, the term 'Malay' is used for a wide range of linguistic varieties (Steinhauer 1980, 1987, forthcoming; de Vries 1980): it covers structurally distinct standardized varieties (Indonesian, Malaysian), dialects and dialect chains (along the east coast of Sumatra, the coastal areas of Borrieo and in the Malay peninsula), and, finally, a number of pidginized varieties (such as Bazaar Malay) and 'creoles'. The latter arose in urbanized centres where people from different linguistic backgrounds met and settled. These people presumably used a reduced form of Malay as their common means of communication, which subse- quently became the mother tongue of the next generations, again devel- oping into a fully fledged language. One such creole arose in Ambon town some 400 years ago (cf. Steinhauer forthcoming).2 This Ambonese Malay (henceforth AM) is only distantly related to the many Austronesian local vernaculars which are still spoken in most of the villages throughout the Moluccas (cf. Blust 1978; Collins 1983, 1985; Ekris 1864-65; Hoëvell 1876, 1877; Stresemann 1927).

This is a literature review about local history of Jakarta and multicultural attitude. In the context of local history of Jakarta, ethnic Betawi as ethnic origin Jakarta is formed from the process of inter-ethnic assimilation imported by the Dutch colonial government in its political and economic interests. In its development, the Betawi ethnic group continued to strengthen and succeeded in establishing their own distinctive identity as well as disturbing with other ethnic groups in Indonesia, although in their present development their existence is decreasing due to development interest which is not able to open wide room for Betawi ethnicity itself because various causes. The Betawi ethnic group has a strong identity concerning Betawi cultural heritage such as strong religious soul, respect for diversity, friendly, homoris, helpful, open, tolerant to differences and so on. As a part of Jakarta's local history, ethnic Betawi history can be explored as a source of inspiration and a source of awareness in instilling multicultural souls in Jakarta, as a metropolitan city with increasingly diverse ethnicity towards social life within the framework of peace and harmony.

  • The Birds of Babar, Romang, Sermata, Leti and Kisar, Maluku, Indonesia
    Colin R. Trainor & Philippe Verbelen 272 Bull. B.O.C. 2013 133(4) New distributional records from forgoten Banda Sea islands: the birds of Babar, Romang, Sermata, Leti and Kisar, Maluku, Indonesia by Colin R. Trainor & Philippe Verbelen Received 5 July 2011; fnal revision accepted 10 September 2013 Summary.—Many of the Banda Sea islands, including Babar, Romang, Sermata and Leti, were last surveyed more than 100 years ago. In October–November 2010, birds were surveyed on Romang (14 days), Sermata (eight days), Leti (fve days) and Kisar (seven days), and on Babar in August 2009 (ten days) and August 2011 (11 days). Limited unpublished observations from Damar, Moa, Masela (of Babar) and Nyata (of Romang) are also included here. A total of 128 bird species was recorded (85 resident landbirds), with 104 new island records, among them fve, 12, 20, four and three additional resident landbirds for Babar, Romang, Sermata, Leti and Kisar, respectively. The high proportion of newly recorded and apparently overlooked resident landbirds on Sermata is puzzling but partly relates to limited historical collecting. Signifcant records include Ruddy-breasted Crake Porzana fusca (Romang), Red-legged Crake Rallina fasciata (Sermata), Bonelli’s Eagle Aquila fasciata renschi (Romang), Elegant Pita Pita elegans vigorsii (Babar, Romang, Sermata), Timor Stubtail Urosphena subulata (Babar, Romang), the frst sound-recordings of Kai Cicadabird Coracina dispar (Babar?, Romang) and endemic subspecies of Southern Boobook Ninox boobook cinnamomina (Babar) and N. b. moae (Romang, Sermata?). The frst ecological notes were collected for Green Oriole Oriolus favocinctus migrator on Romang, the lowland-dwelling Snowy-browed Flycatcher Ficedula hyperythra audacis on Babar, the endemic subspecies of Yellow- throated (Banda) Whistler Pachycephala macrorhyncha par on Romang, and Grey Friarbird Philemon kisserensis on Kisar and Leti.
