Abstract

This research focuses on the history and architecture of Bagas Godang in Huta Godang Village, Ulu Pungkut Sub-district, Mandailing Natal Regency, and the meaning of its ornaments. The purpose of this research is to understand the historical background and architectural details of Bagas Godang and the meaning of the various ornaments contained in it. The method used is descriptive qualitative, with data collection through direct observation, interviews, and analysis of documents, books, photos, and videos. The results showed that the current Bagas Godang is the second building built by King Junjungan Lubis and the people of Huta Godang, after the previous building burned down without knowing when exactly the event occurred. Bagas Godang is characterized by Mandailing architecture with wooden construction, rectangular in shape, supported by an odd number of large timbers, and consists of a vestibule, living room, sleeping room, and kitchen. The roof is in the form of a dolok-arched tarup, with a wide door that makes a loud sound when opened. There are 26 types of ornaments that reflect traditional symbols and create an official agreement on the decoration of Mandailing traditional houses. This research provides an in-depth insight into Mandailing's cultural heritage and traditional architecture.

Abstract

This research examines the historical arrival of Islam in Pagaran Bira Jae Village, Padang Lawas Regency, North Sumatra, and explores its development in the realms of economics, education, and Islamic heritage. The arrival of Islam in this area is significant, as Pagaran Bira Jae was one of the first regions in Padang Lawas to embrace the religion. The spread of Islam in Pagaran Bira Jae is closely tied to trade activities, and prominent religious figures like Sheikh Jired and Malim Mudo I played a crucial role in its dissemination. The research also links the Padri War and the influence of West Sumatran and Tapanuli ulama in shaping religious growth. In terms of physical heritage, Pagaran Bira Jae and Pagaran Bira Julu house several religious institutions, including mosques, surau, and madrasahs, as well as Islamic relics such as the tomb of a saint named Jired, which bears Arabic inscriptions and Pallawa script, possibly from Gujarat, India. This study employs historical methods to provide a comprehensive understanding of the local Islamic legacy.

Abstract

This study explores the historical significance and cultural legacy of the Negeri Padang Kingdom, located in Tebing Tinggi City, Sumatra. The research seeks to answer how the material and immaterial heritage of the kingdom continues to shape the region’s identity. Using a qualitative approach and historical methodology, data were collected through in-depth interviews with local historians and community elders, field observations at heritage sites, and analysis of archival documents. The findings reveal five major historical relics that remain central to the local cultural landscape: the Negeri Padang Royal Palace, Nur Addin Mosque, the Royal Family Cemetery, the Balai Kerapatan (Council Hall), and Padang Stadium. Each site carries deep symbolic and historical meaning, reflecting the kingdom’s social, religious, and political influence in the region. The study underscores the importance of these sites in maintaining cultural continuity and identity among local communities. Furthermore, it contributes to broader scholarly efforts in preserving and documenting regional history and cultural heritage in Eastern Sumatra. The research not only enriches the historiography of local kingdoms in Indonesia but also emphasizes the urgency of safeguarding such legacies amid rapid urban development and modernization.

Abstract

This study examines the role of the Indonesian Islamic Student Movement (PMII) Medan Branch in the Reformasi movement of 1998–1999, a pivotal moment in Indonesia’s democratic transition. While previous scholarship has predominantly centered on student activism in Jakarta, this research addresses the relative neglect of regional dynamics, particularly the contributions of PMII in Medan. Utilizing a qualitative approach and case study method, the research draws on in-depth interviews with three key activists who were directly involved in the reform movement. The findings reveal that PMII Medan played a significant role in mobilizing mass demonstrations, conducting political education, building inter-organizational networks, and engaging in policy advocacy. These strategies illustrate the characteristics of a critical-transformative movement, emphasizing collective consciousness, organizational resilience, and strategic collaboration. The study underscores that regional student organizations such as PMII Medan were not peripheral actors, but integral agents in shaping Indonesia’s national reform agenda. These insights contribute to a more nuanced understanding of local agency within the broader historiography of Indonesian democratization.
