Description
Summary:The data contained in the inscription is about payment or submission of King’s right in the form of material (drwyahaji) and right to collect service from people in the form of labor (buncanghaji). This research aims to know the background and meaning of drwyahaji submission and buncanghaji implementation by Old Balinese people, both as personal and member of society. This research uses qualitative approach by understanding the phenomenon experienced by the research object. The research object is people in the past so that the phenomenon of concern is behaviour, perception, motivation, action, and so on. Explanation was done holistically through description in the form of words and language, in a specific natural context and using some scientific methods. This research shows that drwyahaji was not only dedicated to The King but also to the officials and holy building. In addition, drwyahaji submission to the holy building was found before submission to The King and officials. Drwyahaji and buncanghaji were not only considered as burden because of basic reason behind drwyahaji submission and buncanghaji implementation was an expression of gratitude to God.   Beberapa data yang terkandung dalam prasasti adalah data tentang pembayaran atau penyerahan hak raja berupa materi (drwyahaji) dan hak memungut jasa dari rakyat berupa tenaga kerja (buncanghaji). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui latar belakang dan makna tindakan masyarakat Bali Kuno dalam penyerahan drwyahaji dan pelaksanaan buncanghaji, baik secara pribadi maupun sebagai anggota masyarakat. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan memahami fenomena yang dialami oleh objek penelitian. Objek yang dimaksud adalah masyarakat masa lampau sehingga fenomena yang menjadi perhatian meliputi perilaku, persepsi, motivasi, tindakan, dan lain-lain. Eksplanasi dilakukan secara holistik melalui deskripsi dalam bentuk kata-kata dan bahasa, pada suatu konteks khusus yang alamiah, dan memanfaatkan berbagai metode ilmiah. Penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa drwyahaji bukan saja dipersembahkan kepada raja, tetapi juga kepada para pejabat dan bangunan suci, bahkan penyerahan drwyahaji kepada bangunan suci lebih dulu ditemukan sebelum adanya penyerahan kepada raja dan pejabat. Drwyahaji dan buncanghaji tidak semata-mata dianggap beban oleh rakyat karena alasan mendasar dibalik penyerahan drwyahaji dan pelaksanaan buncanghaji adalah ungkapan syukur kepada Tuhan Yang Maha Kuasa.
