  • NOTES This Article Intrinsically Interesting and Topical, with Talking
    NOTES This article intrinsically interesting and topical, with talking about one Indonesian archaeological issues that are important to the present, which is the root of the nation's diversity. The author tries to explore the diversity that since the beginning of the Holocene in Northern Sumatra in the regional context. However, there are some points that need attention or improvement revision, namely: 1. References: the author needs to update the bibliographycal references by citing the current publications regarding Neolithic of Indonesia and SEAsia in general. Since the third millennium quite a lot of new insights about past human migration in the scope of the Indonesia-East Asia. The missing actual references deviate the interpretation or statements, and on the other hand the obtained field data are forced to be applied in the old opinion. See for instance: Austronesian neolithic sites are claimed > 4000 BP in the western regions (Aceh), while the oldest date so far is ca. 4000 BP in Sulawesi, the first Austronesian arrival in Indonesian island from Taiwan-Philippines. 2. Understanding the regional Neolithic: It should be noted, at least there are two routes of neolithic migration to Indonesia. The one was by the Austro-asiatic speaking people from mainland Southeast Asia, and the other one was from Taiwan by the Austronesian-speaking people. The first one which is more plausible related to the sites studied is not mentioned by the author. In fact, viewing the old date of Takengon neolithic sites studied and the presence of the cultural markers of mainland Neolithic, the sites studied are probably related to that migration.

  • Pulau Kompei with Pulau Sembilan in the Background
    PLATE 1: Pulau Kompei with Pulau Sembilan in the background. Between them lies the northern entrance to Aru Bay. PLATE 2: Pulau Kompei Stoneware Bowl (See Appendix 1, Fig. 2D) A NOTE ON PULAU KOMPEI IN ARU BAY, NORTHEASTERN SUMATRA* E. Edwards McKinnon and Tengku Luckman Sinar The story of Pulau Kompei is intimately linked with that of Aru Bay and its immediate hinterland, an area drained by several sizeable rivers, the most impor­ tant of which is the Besitang,* 1 rising on the slopes of Gunung Mesigit on the east­ ern side of the Bukit Barisan range. We first visited the site on August 17, 1974, prompted by a reference to "Kompei" by O. W. Wolters2 and the reprinting of John Anderson's Mission to the East Coast of Sumatra, in which Kompei is referred to as Pulau Sampah tua. 3 We immediately encountered significant traces of former habi­ tation in the form of sampah tua, or ancient rubbish of the nineteenth century Malays. Although we carried out no excavations at Pulau Kompei, we did make surface collections of potsherds and other artifacts which have enabled us to give a tentative dating to at least one period of trading activity there. We were able to visit the site on three subsequent occasions up to early 1977, and our further in­ vestigations led us to believe that we had rediscovered the "Kompei" mentioned in Chinese records. We acknowledge, however, that an inconsistency seems to exist between the suggested location of the toponym and at least one of the products said to be available there.

    MAIVOIALS COLLECTED IN EASTERN SUMATRA BY DR. W. L. ABBOTT DURING 1!)03. 1906, AND UK)7, AVITIl DESCRIPTIONS OF NEW SPECIES AND SUBSPECIES. By Marcus Ward Lyon, Jr., Assistant Curator, Division of Manunals, I'. ,S. Xational Museum. INTRODUCTION. During the last eight jeavf^ Dr. W. L. Abbott has visited various localities along the eastern coast of Sumatra for the purpose of mak- ing collections of natural history and of enthnology, all of which he has ])resented to the United States National Museum. Mammals and birds have constituted by far the greater part of the zoological collections. The folloAving paper is a systematic account of the mam- mals that he has obtained in the general region of eastern Sunuitra. Thirteen new species and three new subspecies are described in it. Doctor Abbott's first visit to eastern Sumatra was in August and September, 1901. At that time he ascended the Indragiri River (see map, page 023) for a short distance and made collections of mammals from along its banks. This collection, together with material gath- ered during the same year from the near-by islands of the Rhio-Linga Archipelago, was described in 1902 by Mr. Gerrit S. Miller, Jr." It is not treated of in the following pages except in an incidental manner. The next visit of Doctor Abbott to eastern Sumatra was in August and September, 1903, when he made a small collection from along the banks of the Kateman River, a stream not far from the Indragiri which had been visited two years before. He again made a trip to the east coast of Sumatra during the period from November 15, 1905, to February 12, 1906, to Aru Bay (see map, page 621).

Biodiversitas 22: 2131-2135. Research on feeding habits of Tinfoil barb, Barbonymus schwanenfeldii was carried out in the Tasik River from July to August 2020. This study aims to determine the composition of foods consumed by Tinfoil barb fish, and the availability of natural food in the Tasik River from 3 sampling stations. Fishes were caught using a gillnet with a mesh size of 3.18 cm, then the fish samples were dissected, and the digestive tract was taken and preserved with 10% formalin. A total of 138 Tinfoil bars were caught for this study. Analysis of stomach contents found that Tinfoil barb ate phytoplankton (41-48%) as the primary food, moss (25-38%), plant pieces (13-17%), worms (2-11%) as a complementary food and few of insects (0-4%), zooplankton (0-1%) as other foods.

Water is a necessity of life for creatures in this world. No water, no life. The existence of water, other than according to the hydrological cycle, at a particular place, at a particular time, and in particular quality as well as quantity is greatly influenced by a variety of natural phenomena and also by human behavior. Properly managed water and its resources will provide sustainable benefits for life. However, on the other hand, water can also lead to disasters, when it is not managed wisely. Therefore, it is highly necessary to conduct comprehensive and integrated water resources management efforts, or widely known as “Integrated Water Resources Management”. In the same way, river management efforts as part of the river basin integrated water resources management, include efforts on river utilization, development, protection, conservation and control, in an integrated river basin with cross-jurisdiction, cross-regional and cross- sectoral approach. This book outlines how water resources development and management in several river basins are carried out from time to time according to the existing situations and conditions, Besides, it covers various challenges and obstacles faced by the policy makers and the implementers in the field, The existing sets of laws and regulations and the various uses and benefits are also discused.
