Abstract

AbstractThe Tanah Karo's natural lanscape has been known such a fertile area with a climate that is perfect for agricultural activities. The ancient Karo people used to live the old way known as the megalith culture or tradition that is always related to ancestral and animism beliefs. When Islam and Christianity started to influx and flourish, the old beiefs gradually vanished. The material culture heritage, however, shows varous influences from the past. The old well-rooted concept and element that used to live in the society has left such a strong legacy to some aspects of the culture material and tradition in the present day, especially the buiding or the symbolic ornament and the traditional building element. The agricultural life in the past can be traced back through the symbols available, which then will become proposed questions in search for answers. This paper appliesmexplorative-descriptive method with inductive reasoning. The ornaments, building materials and elements available are proofs of agricultural activities in the forms of farming. The fertile soil and conducive climate provide a perfect back up to the farming. The traditional buildings for the ancestors' skulls at Tanah Karo settlements are the perfect examples of the ancient megalith.AbstrakAlam lingkungan Tanah Karo sejak dahulu memang merupakan area yang subur dengan iklim yang menunjang kegiatan pertanian. Masyarakat Karo dahulu masih menganut kepercayaan lama yang dikenal di Nusantara sebagai budaya atau tradisi megalitik yang sering dikaitkan dengan kepercayaan yang berkaitan dengan leluhur dan animisme. Seiring dengan masuknya agama Islam dan Kristen, kepercayaan ini berangsur hilang. Namun melalui budaya material yang ditinggalkan masih menunjukkan adanya pengaruh kepercayaan lama. Konsep maupun unsur budaya yang pernah ada dan mengakar pada masyarakatnya, menyebabkan sebagian bentuk budaya material maupun tradisinya masih menampakkan hubungan dengan budaya masa lalunya. Terutama berkaitan dengan bangunan atau simbol-simbol yang tercermin dalam ornamen dan elemen bangunan adatnya. Bagaimana kondisi pertanian masa lalu dilacak melalui simbol-simbol yang ada menjadi permasalahan yang ingin diungkapkan kejelasannya. Penulisan menggunakan metode eksploratif-deskriptif menggunakan alur penalaran induktif. Melalui berbagai ornamen, bahan bangunan serta elemen bangunannya menjadi petunjuk adanya kegiatan pertanian berupa persawahan dan perladangan. Hal ini didukung oleh tanah yang subur serta iklim yang menunjang kegiatan itu. Perkampungan di Tanah Karo juga masih menggambarkan adanya tradisi megalitik di masa lalu, dengan keberadaan bangunan adat sebagai tempat menyimpan tengkorak dan tulang belulang leluhur /geriten.

AbstractGolden artifacts have different varieties and decorative patterns, such as in jewellery. The presence of golden artifacts in the past is known presently from the Dutch old record in North Sumatra. At that time, the Bataknese lived an old belief of the ancestor spirits or called the megalithic tradition. The development of gold craftsmanship is seen through the golden artifacts with the typical Batak patterns influenced by the old faith as well as external decorative patterns. The proposed question is how the golden artifacts were integrated into the Bataknese culture. The study aims at collecting more knowledge of the importance of golden artifacts in Bataknese life as well as the cultural aspects reflected on those artifacts.

Tentang artefak emas di masa lalu diketahui melalui catatan lama ketika Belanda masuk ke wilayah Sumatera Utara. Pada masa itu etnis Batak pada umumnya masih hidup dalam kepercayaan lama yang berkaitan dengan roh nenek moyang atau dikenal dengan tradisi megalitik. Perkembangan seni kriya emas terlihat melalui artefak emas dengan pola hias khas Batak yang mendapat pengaruh religi lama, dan pola hias yang mendapat pengaruh dari luar. Permasalahannya adalah bagaimana artefak emas menjadi bagian dalam budaya masyarakat Batak ? Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk menambah pengetahuan mengenai pentingnya artefak emas dalam kehidupan masyarakat Batak serta aspek-aspek kebudayaan yang tercermin melalui artefak tersebut. Untuk dapat menjawab permasalahan yang diajukan, maka metode penulisan bertipe eksploratif- deskriptif menggunakan alur penalaran induktif. Penalaran induktif berawal dari kajian terhadap data yang dapat memberikan suatu kesimpulan yang bersifat umum atau generalisasi empiris setelah melalui proses tahap analisis data. Seperti hasil karya seni lain, artefak emas mempunyai fungsi dalam kehidupan masyarakat serta menggambarkan aspek sosial, budaya, dan religi masyarakat Batak di Sumatera Utara di masa lalu.
