Abstract

Indonesia is a country that has a variety of cultures or often referred to as multicultural. In this research, the author is interested in discussing one of the cultures in Indonesia, namely the Markobar tradition in Mandailing tribal communities. The Mandailing tribe is one of the various ethnicities in Indonesia. The majority of the people of this tribe inhabit the Mandailing Natal Regency area, North Sumatra Province. Simply put in Mandailing language, Markobar means to speak. This shows that Markobar is the local wisdom of Mandailing tribal people in the form of oral tradition. Local wisdom is a cultural element that must be explored, studied, and revitalized because its essence is so important in strengthening the foundation of national identity in facing the challenges of globalization. The question that arises next is by looking at the rapid development of technology and science whether the Markobar tradition is able to maintain its existence in the midst of globalization.

Abstract

Islam entered North Sumatra through trade routes involving merchants from the Middle East, India, and Persia, as well as traders from the Bedouin, Gujarat, China, and Turkey. North Sumatra, with significant ports such as Barus and Samudera Pasai, became a hub of trade activity and the spread of Islam. Historical evidence shows the emergence of Islamic kingdoms such as the Sultanates of Asahan, Serdang, Deli, Bilah, Langkat, and Kualuh, reflecting the local community's acceptance of Islam. The discovery of ancient tombs in various locations in North Sumatra, including Barus and other areas, indicates substantial influence from Persia, Arabia, and China. Additionally, coins from various dynasties, including the Umayyad, Abbasid, and Pandya, found at the Bongal site in Central Tapanuli, highlight extensive trade relations and North Sumatra's significant role in international trade routes. The Aceh Sultanate played a crucial role in the spread of Islam in North Sumatra, supported by historical records from Marco Polo and Ibn Battuta. The discovered coins, particularly those from the Umayyad Dynasty, feature inscriptions in Kufic script, reflecting the dissemination of Islamic messages through monetary artifacts. Research on these coins provides insight into the early development of Islam in North Sumatra and the role of trade and marriage in its spread.

Abstract

This article aims to discuss delves into the phenomenon of Sikambang pantun as a cultural heritage of coastal communities. This research aims to explore the characteristics, typology, and socio-cultural functions of Sikambang pantun within the context of life in Barus, Tapanuli Tengah, and Sibolga. By employing a historical research approach with systematic methodological stages comprising heuristic (source collection), source criticism, interpretation, and explanation this study identifies and analyzes various types of Sikambang pantun. The examined typology includes love pantun, advisory pantun, religious pantun, and other variations reflecting the richness of local cultural expression. Sikambang is far more than a traditional literary work; it serves as a significant medium of cultural communication within coastal societies. It functions as a channel for conveying life messages, a vessel for preserving traditional proverbs, a medium for documenting community narratives, an instrument of social communication, and a reflection of the lives and cultural identities of coastal communities. Its existence transcends mere poetic aesthetics, acting instead as a bridge connecting generations, transmitting noble values, and preserving local wisdom. This research provides meaningful academic contributions to understanding local cultural dynamics, particularly the literary expression of Sikambang pantun in the coastal regions of Barus, Tapanuli Tengah, and Sibolga. Through in-depth analysis, this study reveals the complexity and profound meanings embedded in each pantun, demonstrating that traditional literary art is not merely a relic of the past but a living document that continues to evolve and hold relevance.
