Candi Bawah Laut - temple under the sea .flv

Kepala Balai Arkeologi Denpasar, I Wayan Suantika, mengaku belum menerima laporan soal penemuan candi bawah laut di Selat Bali. "Sama sekali belum ada laporan soal temuan itu," kata Suantika di Denpasar, hari ini.


Namun, Suantika agak meragukan temuan yang dirilis di beberapa situs Internet. Sebab, menurut dia, agak mustahil bentuk candi bisa utuh jika berada di bawah laut selama bertahun-tahun. "Kalau candi terbuat dari bata atau batu, rasanya mustahil bentuknya utuh seperti itu," kata Suantika saat melihat foto candi yang dimuat di jejaring sosial Twitter.


Suantika menyatakan, kemungkinan temuan terhadap candi di wilayah Selat Bali, terutama di Gilimanuk tetap ada. "Sebab memang ada arkeolog yang menemukan candi di wilayah Cekik, Gilimanuk. Namun, usia candi itu termasuk muda yakni abad 17-18," ujarnya.




Suantika menduga, jika memang benar ada candi yang ditemukan di Selat Bali, kemungkinan candi itu jatuh ke laut karena abrasi atau faktor alam lainnya. Namun, Suantika berjanji akan menindaklanjuti temuan ini.


Jika temuan ini memang benar, Balai Arkeologi Denpasar akan memastikan apakah temuan itu memang berada pada wilayah Bali. "Sebab, jika lebih dekat dengan daratan Jawa, itu sudah menjadi kewenangan Balai Arkeologi Yogyakarta atau malah diteliti Direktorat Bawah Air Departemen Kebudayaan dan Pariwisata," Suantika menjelaskan.


Sebelumnya, situs jejaring sosial dihebohkan dengan isu temuan candi bawah laut di Selat Bali. Direktorat Bawah Air akan segera meneliti temuan ini.

Head of Archaeology Denpasar, I Wayan Suantika, claimed to have not received reports about the discovery of the underwater temple in Bali Strait. "Absolutely there has been no report about the findings," said Suantika in Denpasar today.

However, Suantika somewhat dubious findings were released at several Internet sites. Because, according to him, somewhat unlikely form of the temple can be complete if it is under the sea for years. "If the temples are made of brick or stone, it was impossible to form a whole like that," said temple Suantika when viewing photos posted on social networking Twitter.

Suantika states, chances are the findings of other temples in Bali Strait region, particularly in Gilimanuk remain. "Because there are archaeologists who found the strangling of the temple in the region, Gilimanuk. However, the temple was included younger age ie 17-18 century, "he said.


Suantika suspect, if it is true there is a temple that was found in the Strait of Bali, the possibility that temple fell into the sea due to erosion or other natural factors. However, Suantika promised to follow up these findings.

If this finding is true, Denpasar Archaeology Institute will determine whether the findings were indeed located on the territory of Bali. "Because, if Java is closer to the mainland, it has become the authority of Yogyakarta Archaeological Center or even Under Water Directorate investigated the Department of Culture and Tourism," Suantika explained.

Previously, the social networking site commotion with the issue of findings under the sea temple in Bali Strait. Under Water Directorate will immediately investigate these findings.
