ABSTRAK
Sistem penanggalan tradisional Cina telah digunakan oleh masyarakat Cina selama berabad-abad. Sistem penanggalan ini menggunakan sistem kalender lunisolar yang menggabungkan penghitungan fase bulan dan matahari. Seiring dengan meningkatnya interaksi antara Indonesia dan Cina pada masa lampau, budaya Cina turut masuk bersama para pendatang. Salah satu peninggalan budaya Cina yang ada adalah nisan tradisional Cina yang terdapat di Masjid Pecinan Tinggi di Banten Lama. Makalah ini akan membahas tentang sistem penanggalan tradisional Cina yang terdapat pada nisan di Masjid Pecinan Tinggi Banten Lama dan informasi yang bisa didapatkan dari penanggalan tersebut.

ABSTRACT
Chinese traditional calendar has been used by Chinese for centuries. This dating system is using lunisolar calendar system which indicates both moon phase and solar year. As the interactions between Indonesia and China increasing in the past, the Chinese came with their traditional cultures and values. One of the existing Chinese relics in Indonesia is a traditional Chinese gravestone located in Masjid Pecinan Tinggi in Banten Lama. This paper will discuss about Chinese traditional dating system on the gravestone and the information that can be obtained from the inscription.

Periodical swarming of the polychaete species, named palolo in English, has been known as socially, culturally, and spiritually important event in Islands Southeast Asia and South Pacific. This study aims at exploring (1) taxonomy and ecology of the palolo and (2) mechanisms of traditional calendars in Indonesia, based on crosscultural and transdisciplinary analyses of previous studies which have been published since the early 18th Century and the authors fieldwork data. As the results, cultural events relevant to the palolo swarming geographically existed only in Lesser Sunda Islands, Moluccas, and New Guinea Island in Indonesia. It was also found that the swarming mostly occurred in February or March in these regions, but in October or November in South Pacific (e.g, Samoa). Local people predicted the time of the palolo swarming by observing celestial and lunar movements. Indigenous calendars were also based on these movements, especially heliacal rising of Pleiades or Antares. In case of Lombok Island, the palolo swarming corresponded to 20th day of 10th month in the indigenous system and people stopped counting next month after this month in waiting for the next heliacal rising. In the authors analyses, this is a sophisticated intercalation system under low astronomical technology. It is concluded that the non conscious intercalation is the key technology and the palolo swarming is the best fitted natural phenomenon for traditional lunisolar calendrical systems in Eastern Indonesia
