    Compositional Analysis O Ancient Bricks From The Seg-II Temple (Unur Lempeng), Batujaya, Indonesia
    (2016-11-08) Ali, Muhamad Shafiq Mohd; Ramli, Zuliskandar; Utomo, Bambang Budi
    The aim of this study is to determine whether the ancient bricks from Candi SEG II (Lempeng) are made from local raw material or otherwise. Candi SEG II is located in a cultivation area which has unearthed various interesting artefacts like fragments of pottery, rouletted pottery, glass beads, animal bones, skeletons and inscriptions with Palava characters. The main construction materials used to build the temple consisted of bricks, while limestone was used as the mortar. The upper part of the temple is believed to have been built using wooden structures and the roof using palm leaves. Scientific analysis on the bricks shows that local raw material was used to produce these bricks. Scientific analysis using the X-ray fluorescence technique and X-ray diffraction technique can determine the chemical composition of the bricks; among others the mineral content of the bricks as well as the major element and trace element content. The usage of local raw material also demonstrated the local wisdom in temple construction technology and also the technique in producing bricks that had existed.

    The Sultan of Perak was the heir of Sultan of Malacca after Perak State was ruled by Sultan Muzaffar who was the son of Sultan Mahmud Shah. The administration of Sultan of Perak grew along Sungai Perak and this can be seen from the tombs located along the Perak River basin from the Lower Perak River to Kuala Kangsar. Due to modernization and environmental changes, most of the graveyards are located at remote places and are difficult to access. This study was conducted to solve the problem of looking for the graveyards’ location by using ICT applications. This paper also discusses the application and procedure for mapping of the point of the graveyards’ coordinates for the tomb sites which were visited during the conduct of this study. The findings of this study will help the heirs of the Sultanate of Perak, the local authorities and the public to find and access the late Sultans of Perak’s graveyards easily and systematically
