Penampungan Bleberan

One of the hamlets in the Bleberan Village area, Playen District, Gunungkidul Regency is a place to accommodate cultural heritage objects found throughout Playen District and its surroundings since 1998.nAccording to the data listed on the information board at the location, there are approximately 57 cultural heritage objects, consisting of 23 menhirs, 1 head, 28 menhirs, 28 stone grave crates, 2 stone grave pegs, and 3 kenong stone.nBleberan Village was designated as a place to hold cultural heritage objects in the Playen District area because in Bleberan Hamlet there were found menhirs that were still intact and in situ so they had to be preserved in accordance with the original. Menhirs are upright stones originating from a megalithic culture which is an object of worship. Sometimes in menhirs there are carvings in the shape of a human body. In general, the menhirs are plugged in an upright position, but some are supine. This type of menhirs in a supine position in Sumatra is referred to as corpse stones, rifles, or cannon stones.nSo for the people of Yogyakarta, fortunately we don't have to go far to other areas to see evidence of prehistoric life, it turns out that Gunungkidul has you!
