"ABSTRAKPenelitian ini membahas mengenai pemanfaatan fauna vertebrata di situs Gua Kidang dengan tujuan untuk mengetahui jenis dan variasi fauna vertebrata yang dikonsumsi manusia serta habitatnya. Di samping itu, juga untuk menggambarkan lanskap lingkungan alam situs Gua Kidang pada masa prasejarah. Dalam penelitian ini fragmen fauna yang dianalisis sudah diidentifikasi taksa dan bagian-bagian anatomisnya. Oleh karena itu, analisis yang dilakukan dimulai dengan menyortir kembali fragmen tulang-tulang fauna yang ada, mengklasifikasikan serta mengolahnya untuk memperoleh jumlah spesimen yang dapat diidentifikasi NISP/Number of Identified Specimens bagi masing-masing taksa, dan jumlah minimal individunya MNI/Minimum Number of Individuals . Dari 8265 fragmen tulang, hanya 1378 yang dapat diidentifikasi secara anatomis dan taksonomis. Penghitungan MNI menunjukkan adanya 23 taksa yang dapat diidentifikasi sampai ke tingkat famili dan hanya dua sampai ke tingkat kelas. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa beraneka ragam fauna yang dimanfaatkan sebagai bahan makanan berasal dari habitat yang berbeda-beda. Berdasarkan jenis-jenis fauna tersebut dapat diperkirakan keadaan lingkungan di sekitar Gua Kidang pada masa prasejarah. Kata kunci: pemanfaatan, fauna vertebrata, fragmen tulang, prasejarah, Gua Kidang.

ABSTRACTThe research discusses the utilization of vertebrate fauna at the Kidang Cave site to identify the types and variations of vertebrate animals as subsistence and their respective habitats. The analysis was also instrumental in defining the natural landscape of Kidang Cave during the prehistoric era. Faunal fragments were previously analysed and identified taxonomically and anatomically. The analysis started with re sortation of faunal bone fragments, classifying and further analyzing the data to obtain the number of identified specimens for each taxon NISP and the minimum number of individuals MNI . From 8,265 bone fragments, only 1,378 were anatomically and taxonomically identifiable. The MNI calculation revealed a number of 23 taxa that were identified down to their familial levels and only two to class levels. The result of this research identified various fauna from different habitats were part of the human diet. Based on this analysis, the natural environment surrounding Kidang Cave during the prehistoric era was then predicted.Keyword utilization, vertebrate animal, bone fragment, prehistory, Gua Kidang."

"Gua Kidang is a prehistoric settlement that provides a complete description on the lifepattern and the development of technology, as well as the adaptation strategy of the dwellers tosurvive. The development of technology was supported by the intelligence of the artist and the rawmaterial provided in its neighbourhood. The manufacturing technique of tools and jewellery,found in Gua Kidang, demonstrated the effectivity aspect and unique innovation. Artifacts madefrom clamshell and bone, along with dental remains provide the insight on the variety of tools typeand advance manufacturing technique compared to the type found in other prehistoric cavedwelling in Java as well asIndonesial. Based on the analysis of the manufacturing technique andgeoarchaeological aspect, the cultural character of Gua Kidang?s dwellers was shown through thedevelopment of technology. This paper uses descriptive methods - explanatory with inductivereasoning."
