Ganesha is the best-known deity after Trimurti in the Hindu pantheon. He is worshipped as the lord of beginnings and as the lord of removing obstacles. He is sculpted in various depictions. One of them, collected by the Prambanan Temple Museum, Yogyakarta, shows a snake and a mouse as his vahana (mount/vehicle). This image has never been found anywhere else. Therefore, this study was aimed to find out the mythological story behind that depiction and to investigate the past people’s understanding of it. This descriptive study employed an iconographic analysis to analyze the collected data. The analysis results indicate that Ganesha is revered as the protector of crop yield (the harvest deity).

TINJAUAN ETNOSEJARAH DALAM PENELITIAN ARKEOLOGI DI KABUPATEN BIAK NUMFOR
No full textArchaeological research at BN which utilizes ethno-history as one of its methods, can in fact provide important information regarding the history of the site. This information can assist researchers in determining the periodicity of the site. Sorkdi site are prehistoric, but if you pay attention to the results of the study of oral history and old texts, the conclusion points to sites of prehistoric traditions (farming traditions). Using the same method (ethnohistoric), it is pointed out that the Sowek site and Wow Sikiki Cave are also sites of prehistoric traditions. The Sowek site is similar in case to Sorkdi, while the Wow Sakiki Cave is suspected of being a prehistoric tradition site because there are no findings indicating the origin of the neolithic period. Meanwhile, if you pay attention to the old text which states that a korwar statue (perhaps a painting of a korwar statue, a statue that is always created by followers of the Koreri movement), then this clarifies the periodization of Wow Sakiki Cave as a site of prehistoric traditions.

No full textThis article discusses the arrangement of Manado city infrastructure carried out by the Dutch colonial government in 1824-1945. Manado City before being laid out and became the center of government of the North Sulawesi region was a traditional Minahasa settlement that lacked adequate infrastructure. The research method uses multidisciplinary archaeology, which combines archaeological methods with other disciplines (urban planning and spatial planning). The results showed that the arrangement carried out by the Dutch colonial government included a network of roads and bridges, ports, offices, defense, commerce, open space, and cemeteries. The infrastructure in Manado has undergone significant changes since the Dutch colonial era. Many colonial buildings that were damaged during World War II have either changed their function or been replaced by new buildings.Artikel ini membahas penataan infrastruktur kota Manado yang dilakukan pemerintah kolonial Belanda.
