Culture as one of the cultural preservation areas with regards to its historical value, this region is very important to be conserved in the efforts to sustain the development of cultural history and human civilization. The cultural assets in Gunungkidul Regency include the artifacts of the classical period, the Islamic period, and the historical period in the forms of menhir, sarcophagus, and megalithic structures. At least up to this moment, there are 48 historical sites and 11 villages cultural-based assets. Those historical sites are located on the riverbanks and rice fields in the sub-districts of Karangmojo, Wonosari, Semanu and Tepus. Yet, the current conservation activities have not been done optimally, causing the loss of cultural assets and sites as well, even they are not placed where they are supposed to. This is due to the lack of the education and awareness of the community about the conservation of their cultural assets.
