Berkala Arkeologi is a biannual journal by Balai Arkeologi D.I. Yogyakarta, published every May and November each year. This journal seek to promote archaeological research, as well as to share those research to the public. Our first edition was published on March 1980, and we have grown since then. Starting from a journal with general topics, and now we have concentrated on a more specific topic, archaeology. Since 2012, Berkala Arkeologi has started to use online system for their management. Since 2015, Berkala Arkeologi has been accredited by the the Indonesian Institute of Sciences (LIPI) with their decree number 641/AU2/P2MI-LIPI/07/2015.

Lepra adalah penyakit kronis pada manusia yang dapat menular. Penyakit ini menyerang kulit, membrane mukosa, saraf periperi, mata, tulang dan testis yang disebabkan oleh Mycobacerium leprae. Beberapa penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sejarah manusia akhir-akhir ini, lepra telah tersebar diseluruh dunia. Oleh karena itu, sangat penting untuk meletakkan kasus lepra pada peta persebaran penyakit dalam rangka membangun pengetahuan yang lebih luas, tidak hanya berkenaan dengan persebaran penyakit itu sendiri melainkan juga untuk menganalisis persebaran manusia modern. Tujuan dari studi ini adalah untuk mendeteksi penyakit infeksi lepra pada populasi kuno guna mengetahui relevansinya dengan sejarah penghunian di Indonesia. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode makroskopik berdasarkan metode dari Ortner dan Aufderheide & Rodriguez-Martin untuk mengidentifikasi lepra pada cranium dari specimen LL1/5 dari Lewoleba, pulau Lembata. Antikuitas LLI/5 berdasarkan C14 adalah 2900+-160. Hasil pengamatan menunjukkan bahwa LLI/5 menderita lepra semasa hidupnya. Beberapa penelitian tentang penyakit infesksi, termasuk lepra, menyimpulkan bahwa kemunculan lepra berkaitan dengan migrasi manusia, dalam hal ini persebaran manusia modern. Beberapa penelitian telah membuktikan bahwa persebaran lepra konsisten dengan sumber manusia modern yaitu Afrika Timur. Persebaran lepra jyga sesuai dengan jalur persebaran manusia modern dari Afrika. Berdasarkan hal ini disimpulkan bahwa karena lepra tersebar sesuai dengan migrasi manusia, hal ini berarti bahwa lepra dapat menjangkiti populasi kuno di Indonesia. Hal ini disebabkan karena Indonesia adalah salah satu jalur migrasi persebaran manusia modern.

Lately, the decline in the understanding of Pancasila and Bhinneka Tunggal Ika as the identity and ideology of the Indonesian nation has become a central issue that we must solve together. Diversity in ethnicity, religion, race, and customs owned by the Indonesian nation has been perceived and understood since thousands of years ago, diversities which were starting to be joined together during the Majapahit era. Mpu Tantular in his infamous Kakawin Sutasoma has written ?bhinneka tunggal ika tan hana dharma mangrwa?, an idea about unity in diversity. From then on, this idea has grown into nationalism spirit, which eventually became a tremendous force to repel the Dutch colonialist. Therefore these diversities must be maintained and preserved. Through a study about the past, archaeology has a role in protecting and preserving the cultural diversity to unify the nation.

In 2013, Center for Archaeological Research of Yogyakarta has found a human remain in Cluster F, Liangan site, Temanggung, which named as individual of Liangan F1. This study tries to reveals biological and cultural aspects which recorded on this remain by bioarchaeological approach. Biological aspects are including; age estimation, sex determination, population affinity, and pathology or health condition. Meanwhile, cultural aspects are including antemortem cultural practice which associated to dental modification, and perimortem taphonomy as evidence of funeral practices or burial procedures. Study on human remains from Liangan settlement site of Ancient Mataram Kingdom has opened our knowledge to understanding culture and human behavior which develop during the historical period of 9th-10th century AD in Java.

In 2014 there was found two "enigmatic" specimens of mandible, which named as Semedo 3417 and 3418. Both mandibles are morphologically similar but twice bigger than common primate?s jaw. In this research, we use morphology and morphometric analysis to determine the species identity and taxonomic position of those specimens. For comparison study we use some samples from Homo erectus (Java and China), Gigantopithecus (blacki and bilaspurensis), Australopithecines (robust and gracile). Based on morphology and morphometric characters on the mandible and teeth, it is concluded that Semedo specimen tends to be close to Gigantopithecus blacki. The discoveries of Gigantopithecus fossil in Java has implication on some research problem, especially regarding the adaptation pattern of this species which known only found at high latitudes environment. Furthermore this discovery has reinforced the perspective that tropical environment has a very high biodiversity, particularly on primate fossils.
