The main aim of this paper is to introduce researchers in social sciences, especially archaeologists, to the fundamental theory underlying all of the taxonomical reconstructions and classifications, as well as to present the historiography and methodological development of this research area.
Although taxonomy has been applied to anthropology and archaeology for a long time, most of the methodological achievements have taken place in evolutionary biology. Its use can be extended to all areas of knowledge of historical nature in which variation and diversity are constantly produced through time and space. This is also to prevent the imbalance intellectual, spiritual and physical development of the student.Taxonomy works forming groups of specimens or of any kind of object on the basis of a particular series of criteria.
Since the academic and non academic activities are integrated in one system, the assessment of academic achievements of students is combined with that of non-academic achievements, so that the whole potentiality and achievement of the student in all field during their study at UNIDA Gontor could be identified. The system is designed specially to form educational environment where students could interact with teachers to inculcate their knowledge and experiences directly. By those four centers of education students and teachers could live together under the Islamic values such as sincerity, simplicity, self-reliance, Islamic brotherhood and freedom. Like pesantren system of education, the campus of UNIDA Gontor has four education centers that consist of mosque as the center of activities Kyai, a religious leader as central figure, boarding house as the representation of family and society, and academic activities as the representation of formal education or school. This is typical of Pesantren system of education and therefore the students are under the guardian of the Head of Pesantren, usually called Kyai.
