Abstract

The Liyangan site is located in Liyangan, Purbosari, Ngadirejo, Temanggung, Central Java, Indonesia, was buried by material from the eruption of Mount Sindoro and reappeared due to sand mining activities in 2009. Based on the archaeological data found, the Liyangan Site has a very complex function with indications of traces of worship, settlement, and agriculture activities from a long period of time between 5th to 10th centuries AD. At the Liyangan Site, several buildings made of wood were found in a state of charcoal, whose remains can still be seen. The discovery of the remains of this building is very interesting if it is related to the function and character of the Liyangan Site which is very complex. The writing of this article aims to inform the aspects of the form and raw materials found in wooden buildings at the Liyangan Site. This study uses the archeoforestry method, which aims to reconstruct past life based on material remains with a forestry approach. Based on the analysis of data found in 2012, 2018, and 2020, it can be seen that the form of wooden buildings at the Liyangan Site consists of houses or residences, and rice barns, with raw materials derived from palm trees, bamboo, petung bamboo, puspa, jamuju, and pasang. The discovery of the remains of wooden buildings at the Liyangan Site provides information about the form of residences and rice barns during the Old Javanese period, as well as the reasons for choosing the use of wood as the construction of the building.
