RE: Mapping of Nisan Aceh in Kuta Lubok, Lamreh

in #photography6 years ago (edited)

Nisan Aceh instead of Gravestone is the first thing that I found it as unique in your post. did you know that Nisan came from turkish language? anyway.. I forgot to ask you about this area before, was it affected by tsunami? when it's named as kuta, it does really mean there were dwellers despite the fact that it was a fortress, but when I observed the red and green spot.. I think no other dwellers except the army in that time.

well,... this is getting more interested to follow @ahmadzaky, I rwally want to know more ... hope that you and the team will find more evidence about the fortress and look at that Nisan/gravestone.. it must be belongs to someone from the higher class, well.. you know that not everyone in that time can afford such as beautiful gravestone I supposed.

have you all interprete the words? looks like arabic or turkish word isn't it? but it could be in acehnese too?
thank you for mentioned us in this post.. I really enjoy to read more about my homeland, at least about the ancient history and glued the pieces of time and story that has so many worm hole in it.

You're welcome kak @cicisaja. I'm glad if you like my post. in the future I will share about other things about the gravestone of aceh. to answer the questions you asked about the tsunami in the lamreh area.
this is the answer, there are some areas with low topography exposed to tsunami while graveston that located in the highlands only affected by the earthquake.
because in the past if kings and ulama died, they were buried in the highlands. to glorify and honor their spirits.

So kuta lubok not really affected by tsunami 😕 ok, that will be a great opportunity to find more information on that area. Hope that you and your team able to collect more evidences and government will help to restore all the precious treasures of our ancient history.. so, do you think, the gravestone owners probably from other place and burried there for some reasons?

It become more interesting now, will you stop using photography tag😂 heey.. why don't you try using #ccc you can find the rules in one of my post. We need to expose your post more.. and keep steem it on at least 2-3 times a week. Will find a best way to support you grow your account.
