between the east and the west. This trade
route was known as the Silk Road and it was
connecting to Europe, Middle East, Indian
subcontinent, Nusantara Archipelago,

gate of the Indonesian archipelago that was
called Nusantara in spreading Islam. A lot of

that Islam entered to Aceh since 7th century
AD. A great number of Islamic scholars and
poets brought Aceh as the largest Islamic
center in Southeast Asia. Many Islamic
universities and mosques were established.
The Islamic law called syaria has been
applied in the legal system of Aceh.

Mecca porch.

to fight hunger and food insecurity. Along with
the times, food search techniques has been
developing. It is ranging from hunting and
farming. Nevertheless, technology development
does not guarantee human from the threat of
food crisis that has been present repeatedly in
