Tapak peleburan besi purba di Sungai Batu (Ancient iron smelting site at Sungai Batu)

Bersambung daripada Tapak arkeologi (Archeological site of) Pengkalan Bujang.

Continued from Tapak arkeologi (Archeological site of) Pengkalan Bujang.

Dalam perjalanan ke Kedah hujung minggu lalu saya juga pergi lagi ke tapak arkeologi Sungai Batu.

In the trip to Kedah made last weekend I also went againt to Sungai Batu archeological site.

Namun tidak seperti lawatan terdahulu di mana saya cuma pergi ke tapak-tapak di bahagian utara jalan raya (lihat artikel Tapak arkeologi (Archeological site of) Sungai Batu, Kedah dan  Lagi tapak arkeologi (More archeological site of) Sungai Batu, Kedah  yang dibuat 3 minggu lalu) kali ini saya pergi yang di belah selatan juga)

Still unlike the previous visit where I only went to the sites on the northern side on the road (look at the articles Tapak arkeologi (Archeological site of) Sungai Batu, Kedah dan  Lagi tapak arkeologi (More archeological site of) Sungai Batu, Kedah  made 3 weeks ago) this time I also went to those on the southern side).

Secara rata tapak-tapak di sini adalah untuk kerja-kerja peleburan besi.

In general the sites here are for iron smelting works.

Ada yang sudah dibuka seawal 387 Sebelum Masihi!

There are those which were opened in as early as 387 Before Christ!

Tapak arkeologi (Archeological site of) Pengkalan Bujang

Hujung minggu lalu saya ke Kedah lagi lalu melawat tapak arkeologi di Pengkalan Bujang.

Last weekend I went to Kedah again and so visited the archeological site of Pengkalan Bujang.

Sebenarnya saya pernah ke sini 8 tahun lalu. Cuma ketika itu mungkin saya kurang menghayati kepentingan tapak sejarah lama seperti ini. Lihat artikel The ruins of Pengkalan Bujang di blogspot BERPETUALANG KE ACEH.

Actually I've been here 8 years ago. It's just that at the time maybe I did not truly appreciate the importance of such an old historical site like this. Look at the article The ruins of Pengkalan Bujang in the blogspot BERPETUALANG KE ACEH.
