“…Europeans became attracted to highland megaliths early in the twentieth century (Bonatz 2012), initially in the areas of Kerinci and Sungai Tenang (Adam 1922;de Bont 1922;Witkamp 1922), but most famously on the Pasemah Plateau in southern Sumatra through the work of van der Hoop (1940). Other significant early work included the systematic survey of western Sumatran archaeology by Krom (1912), who listed 24 inscriptions and 31 other types of sites from an area covering Muara Takus in the northeast to Padang Roco in the south (Bonatz et al 2009). Despite initial interest in the highlands, archaeological interest shifted to the lowlands, and the identification of Srivijaya as a kingdom rather than a king in 1918 (Coedès 1918) spurred much research on this realm, which was famous for its wealth and learning.…”

Quaternary Palaeontology and Archaeology of Sumatra

The late Quaternary history of Sumatra has experienced relatively little attention compared to that of the other large islands in the Indonesian archipelago. The first reports of fossils from the island date to the 1880s; they were discovered largely through the efforts of Dubois in the caves of the Padang Highlands. Following these efforts, focus shifted in the 1920s and 1930s to the archaeological records of the midden deposits of northern Sumatra and the Hoabinhian cultures preserved therein. There was little new fieldwork between 1940 and 1970, but by the mid-1970s several new campaigns seemed to herald a renewed interest in the history and prehistory of the island. This enthusiasm does not appear to have been sustained, however, and work was intermittent again in the 1980s and 1990s. Beginning in the mid-1990s and extending into the first two decades of the twenty-first century, more work at existing sites and new investigations have both taken place, extending our knowledge of both the deep-time and more recent history of the island. The application of new techniques on existing sites and the exploration and excavation of new sites are making an increasingly significant contribution to understanding the role of Sumatra in human biological and cultural evolution.

“…Обрывочные сведения о «заброшенном каменном городе на высокой горе» были известны еще с XV в., но первое документальное свидетельство принадлежит голландцу Нико ласу Крому, который посетил Гунунг-Паданг в 1914 г. [Krom, 1914]. Затем памятник канул в небытие, и лишь в конце 1970-х гг.…”

1800 гг.) в книге Origines gauloises («Галльское происхождение») отмечал, что древним кельтским словом dolmin галлы именовали крупный верхний камень святилищ. Впоследствии слово «дольмин» стали использовать не только для верхней части, но и для всего мегалитического сооружения. В свою очередь, термин «мегалит» впервые введен в употребление английским антикваром А. Хербертом в 1849 г. при описании конструкции Стоунхенджа. * Интересующимся историей археологических исследований в островной части Юго-Восточной Азии адресуем статью «Пионеры тихоокеанской археологии» [Табарев и др., 2019].** Остров Сулавеси -португальское название «Целебес» (Celebes), давшее название и морю -Целебесское море (Море Сулавеси).
