Hunting Aceh Sultanate Gravestone

in #aceh7 years ago (edited)

I take this photo when visit Historian Community activity in Aceh , @mapesa - http://mapesaaceh.com - Aceh Historical Concern Society in Gampong Pande, Banda Aceh. They work is to find Ache sultanate/kings family and ulama graveyard all over Ache.

Hmm...this is very hard volunteerism effort and i'm really apreaciate the effort. And another incredible thing is, they still using traditional tools to find the gravestone. Although hundred years old, the stone founded in good condition and still can read the message. Can you imagine that? i think this stone is one of the best quality stone ever built.

This work is very important for next generation, for save next generation memory. This effort also will bring a proof that Ache sultanate was ever have a great civilization and become a leader in South East Asia.
