Abstract

The paper discusses the importance of phylomemetic visualization to approach the cultural diversity
in the social system like Indonesia, and thus revisit formal methodology regarding to the
construction of the phylomemetic tree as an inspiration lent from the phylogenic analysis. A case of
study is presented regarding to the data obtained from the diversity of traditionally inspired
building-designs in Indonesia. Some future conjectures and open future analytical works in the
anthropological studies are drawn.

Keywords: phylomemetic tree, dendrogram, cultural evolution, memetics, diversity, Indonesia.
