Abstract

This research examines the transformation of the Mangalehen Tuor tradition in Mandailing ethnic wedding ceremonies after migration to Medan City. This tradition has undergone significant adaptation in the context of rapid urbanization and intercultural interactions in urban environments. Changes in the implementation of traditions, such as adjustments to the time and place of implementation, as well as changes in participation and delivery of advice, are the main focus of this research. Factors influencing these changes, such as urbanization, intercultural interactions, the influence of the younger generation, economics, and technology, are analyzed to understand the dynamics of cultural adaptation in a broader context. Despite undergoing transformation, efforts to preserve Mandailing cultural values ??remain a priority, reflected in cultural education efforts, community activities and technology integration. This research provides insight into how ethnic communities manage and maintain their cultural identity amidst the ever-growing challenges of globalization and modernization.

Abstract

This study employs qualitative methods with a historical approach to analyze the influence of culture and society on the development of Batik Langgam Medan design. The historical approach is used to systematically collect and evaluate data related to past events that have shaped the evolution of Batik Langgam and its future potential. The findings reveal that Batik Langgam was established in 2008 by Hj. Rafika Johani, S.Ag., with the name "Langgam," meaning style, model, as well as ideas and creations derived from the local wisdom of North Sumatran ethnic groups. Initially, Batik Langgam specialized in producing souvenirs and batik featuring traditional North Sumatran motifs. The history and evolution of Batik Langgam have been significantly influenced by both Malay and Javanese cultures. The motifs of Batik Langgam Medan represent local adaptations of Javanese batik, incorporating elements of Malay heritage, Batak motifs, and environmental influences such as geometric and floral patterns. This study concludes that Batik Langgam Medan serves as a dynamic representation of cultural interaction, reinforcing its role as a symbol of evolving cultural identity in response to social and economic changes.
