Professor Teuku Abdullah Sanny is a professor at the Bandung Institute of Technology, which has a high-tech Georadar system tool capable of detecting underground historical artefacts as deep as 70 meters.

On the second day of this initial research, I as a history activist of Aceh, accompanied the archaeologist of the World as well as witnessed by the people of Banda Aceh itself.

In this preliminary study, I had a lot of dialogue with Professor Sanny that the purpose of doing this underground research is the location during which there has been controversy between the Acehnese history activists, the royal community of the king of Aceh and the people with the Banda Aceh City Government, where we need to know all this time, on location of Installation Project of Waste Water Treatment Installation (IPAL) of Gampong Pande and Gampong Jawa in Kutaraja Sub-district of Banda Aceh, allegedly the development of this Project has violated Indonesian Heritage Conservation Act No. 11 Year 2010, because in the history of Aceh recording above this development project there are many ancient artifacts relics of the past, especially ancient tombstones, and this area is known in various literature History that this is a former relic of the Kingdom of Aceh Darussalam complex in the past or in the year 1205 AD .

Because of this polemic, the Government stopped the Installation Project of Waste Water Treatment Plant (IPAL) installation.

Professor Teuku Abdullah Sanny and his two experts are doing the grounding by using Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) where the tool detects various objects, especially ancient artifacts buried in the ground and analyzes how deep the buried object is in the earth.

Furthermore, the results that have been read during this archaeological activity are much early progress that has been read through the tools of Georadar, and the magnetic waves sent to the computer where in the recording are a lot of anomalies and noise, but at least the initial information has been read glance where many ancient building structures and other objects in the ground in the core area of the cultural heritage of Gampong Pande and Gampong Jawa in the Kutaraja sub-district of Banda Aceh.

The full results of this preliminary study, will be known in more detail as early as 2 weeks to come from the start date of this activity.

The purpose of Professor Sanny in conducting this research, so that the ongoing polemic between the Government and the community this location, can soon end up with scientific verification accurately and accountable.
