  This research aims to identify hygeralai from a historical aspect as one of the local types of local knowledge that lives in the indigenous community of Luang Island, Maluku Province, Indonesia. This research uses a qualitative research method with a historical approach. Data collection techniques in this research through in-depth interviews, field observations and literature studies. The analysis technique used in this research is historical analysis. The results of field research show that the etymology of hygeralai began as a sign of identity, a sign of ownership, a sign of territorial boundaries and used by the ancestors of Luang Island at that time. In its development, it underwent changes related to several attributes and organization when Protestant Christianity entered. The results of exploration in the field show that the etymology of hygeralai is also influenced by the environment and geography. This is evidenced by its affiliation with one of the plants that grow on Luang Island, the koli tree. From this affiliation material, it is also important to display the position of Luang Island in the division of flora in Indonesia according to Wallacea and Weber line. Thus, we can analyze the history of plant movements used by the ancestors in etymology of hygeralai. The hygeralai research results from this historical position are then compared in general with other terms in Maluku related to environmental and natural resource management. The results of this research contribute to local history, especially the management of natural resources based on local wisdom in coastal communities and border areas.

  Is there a historical dimension to digital pedagogy? The evidence suggests yes! Is the IT historical aspect an immanent part of a digital pedagogical study on the use of artificial intelligence? This question is more complex to answer. A multifaceted theoretical analysis that approaches the studies from a bird's eye view reveals that knowledge of the historical background is essential for presenting even the most modern topics. We cannot look at artificial intelligence otherwise than as a product group of IT sciences that makes its user think: in what way and to what extent is it human, in what way and to what extent is it helpful, where are the limits of its artificiality. This study aims to prove, primarily by grasping at some of the helpful handholds of the rich methodology of hermeneutic reading, that without quality historiography there is no theory – and without the dialectic of theory and historicity– without this fertile duality – there is no practically usable science supporting education. The Hungarian digital pedagogical literature is a diverse repository of the use of the historical aspect – and our analysis also reveals that AI does not have a unified history so much as „stories”. Traditions without which the current tendencies would be incomprehensible.
