In order to create a believable world for the animated content. Concept art for the animation are created through the process of studying literatures about Celebes Sea maritime history and field observation on Celebes Sea region. In this paper, the concept art being discussed is limited to the environment of the animated world along with some of Its property such as houses and boat, however there are minimum visual data on related literature and unmaintained artifacts / model from field observation. There- fore, visual language has to be decoded through historical text in the literature and also through visual research on available artifacts / model of the property.

Graphic Representations

The paper presents a reflective overview of the recursive relation between the archaeological practice of picturing Scandinavian rock art in printed works since the mid-19th century, and how archaeologists have constructed its meaning. There seem to be an intimate connection between graphic representations of rock art and an interpretative bias towards the mimetic qualities of images. When picturing rock art, the identification of motifs is prioritized at the expense of the materiality of rock art. Ultimately, the production of graphic representations has influenced the antiquarian alteration of the archaeological remains. Today, major Scandinavian rock art sites are frequently painted red, with the purpose of highlighting the engraved imagery for visitor legibility. This practice transforms the materiality of stone into a visual language of graphic representations.

The Impact

The article provides a new version of Frank Broeze’s definition of maritime history by putting it in a framework of a sea. It gives a critical approach to the various histories of the seas and oceans that use the sea as a setting and not as a dynamic agent of change. It argues that the true history of the sea is a maritime history that entails maritime activities: on the sea (seamen, ships, navigation, sea trade, war, piracy); around the sea (maritime communities, islands, port cities, shipping, shipping-related, fishing and touristic businesses); in the sea (fishing, maritime resources, environment); because of the sea (maritime transport systems and entrepreneurial networks, maritime empires, international and national maritime institutions and policy); and about the sea (maritime culture and heritage, the ideology, myths and poems of a sea, the impact of the sea on art).

Natural history dealers' shops offered colour, interest and occasional sensation to the people of mid-nineteenth century Sydney. This essay examines the nature of shop-front natural history enterprise in this period, and its significance in the history of the city and the wider colony. It begins by discussing dealers and their businesses, going on to argue for the role both played in the ongoing process of colonisation. In particular, it highlights the contribution made to those aspects of territorial appropriation which were taking place in the imaginations of Sydney's inhabitants.

In the text, it is indicated that knowledge of gender equality and of roles performed in various cultural and civilizational realities consist of various myths and stereotypes. Cultural and civilizational activity of women is determined by the institutional level of public sphere entities (such as the church, schools, state authorities, political parties, social organizations). In most cultural environments, women are situated in the background in paternalistic environment. Profeministic declarations (starting from 19th century till nowadays) do not change the situation of women. The forces that change gender inequality are following: the development of human rights and the ongoing process of globalization.

Final Group

This volume aims to continue the expansion of maritime history beyond the narrow definition - ‘the study of ships’ - to include all people involved in seagoing activities. The volume consists of eleven articles exploring the people of Northern seas, spanning the seventeenth to nineteenth centuries and primarily focused on Europe. They were originally presented at a 1992 Finland conference of the Association for the History of the Northern Seas. The articles are broad in scope, and are collected here with the intention of stimulating further academic research into the lives and histories of the people of the Northern seas, which the editors, at the time of publication, consider under-examined. The articles are divided into three sections, the first examining livelihoods dependant on the ocean; seamen, fishermen. The second group examines maritime mercantile communities; merchants; shipowners; shipbrokers. The final group examines maritime culture, encompassing the navy and the coastguard.

Historical Investigation

The underlying notion of this research was to investigate the Batik Latoh as one of maritime cultures of the Lasem community involved in the study of maritime history. The study of Indonesian history many times examined the events occurred on the land, even though more than half of Indonesian area covers the ocean. As the alternative of historical study, there is historical investigation based on maritime culture. This is a crucial issue recently since the area of Indonesia is mostly covered by the ocean. One of maritime history studies is the existing maritime potency in Lasem area. The batik of Lasem has the unique color of light red. The infiltrate of outside influence affects the pattern and color of batik. Batik latoh (genus of seaweeds/green algae) was the result of cross cultural of coastal Lasem people on the north coast of Java.
