PORTALUTAMA.NET, MAKASSAR — Sejarah panjang peradaban manusia prasejarah di Sulawesi Selatan kembali mendapat pembuktian ilmiah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Penelitian terbaru mengungkap bahwa budaya Toalean, yang selama ini dikenal melalui artefak ikonik Maros Point, ternyata tidak lahir secara tiba-tiba, melainkan merupakan hasil perkembangan tradisi teknologi lokal yang berlangsung selama sekitar 40.000 tahun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Temuan tersebut merupakan hasil riset kolaboratif di bawah Pusat Kolaborasi Riset (PKR) Arkeologi Sulawesi yang telah dipublikasikan dalam jurnal internasional Archaeological and Anthropological Science melalui artikel berjudul Evolution of stone flaking technology at Leang Panninge (South Sulawesi, Indonesia) from the Late Pleistocene to the ‘Toalean’ technocomplex.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Penelitian dilakukan di situs prasejarah Leang Panninge, Kabupaten Maros, dengan melibatkan peneliti dari Departemen Arkeologi Fakultas Ilmu Budaya Universitas Hasanuddin, Badan Riset dan Inovasi Nasional (BRIN), Griffith University, Balai Pelestarian Kebudayaan Wilayah Sulawesi Selatan, Bumi Toala Indonesia, NALAR, serta IAAI SULAMPAPUA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Selama ini, budaya Toalean dikenal sebagai salah satu tradisi prasejarah paling khas di Indonesia melalui keberadaan Maros Point, artefak batu yang menjadi ciri utamanya.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Namun, asal-usul budaya tersebut masih menjadi perdebatan di kalangan arkeolog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Melalui analisis terhadap artefak batu dari lapisan tanah yang berasal dari sekitar 40.000 hingga 3.500 tahun lalu di Leang Panninge, para peneliti menemukan adanya kesinambungan perkembangan teknologi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pada fase awal, masyarakat memproduksi serpih-serpih batu sederhana yang digunakan secara praktis tanpa banyak modifikasi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mereka juga telah mengenal berbagai teknik pengolahan batu, termasuk metode bipolar yang diduga berkaitan dengan pengolahan oker sebagai bahan pembuatan lukisan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Perkembangan tersebut terus berlangsung hingga sekitar 8.000 tahun lalu ketika Maros Point mulai muncul sebagai penanda budaya Toalean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pada fase berikutnya, teknologi pembuatan alat batu semakin sistematis dengan menghasilkan artefak berukuran lebih kecil, seragam, serta memanfaatkan teknik backing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Penulis utama penelitian dari Universitas Hasanuddin, Suryatman, mengatakan hasil riset ini memberikan sudut pandang baru mengenai asal-usul budaya Toalean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Yang menarik dari penelitian ini adalah adanya kesinambungan teknologi yang sangat panjang. Budaya Toalean tidak muncul dari ruang kosong,” ujar Surya dalam keterangannya yang diterima fajar.co.id, Rabu (2\/15\/6\/2026).<\/p>\n PORTALUTAMA.NET, MAKASSAR — Sejarah panjang peradaban manusia prasejarah di Sulawesi Selatan kembali mendapat pembuktian ilmiah.
