Abstract

Abstract. Interpretation of Serpent Decorative Patterns in the Panataran Naga Temple: A Peircean Semiotic Study. Decorative patterns are an integral component of temple architecture. Their presence is to depict the identity and significance of a temple. Among the various decorative patterns, mythological creatures such as serpents are typical features used in temple architecture. This is evident in the Naga Temple located in the Panataran Temple Complex. This research examines the decorative patterns found in the Naga Temple, along with their meanings, which can be linked to the function of the Naga Temple. This effort was undertaken by interpreting the meaning of the decorative patterns at Naga Temple using Peirce’s Semiotic theory, referencing the story of Samudramanthana from the Adiparwa Book. It is important to note that the presence of serpent motifs at Naga Temple does not entirely depict the Samudramanthana story. This argument is supported by the absence of the depiction of Asuras, which are integral to the Samudramanthana narrative. However, the presence of a serpent figure in the decorative patterns of the Naga Temple symbolises the mythology surrounding serpent creatures. This is related to the serpent being a sacred intermediary creature between the upper and lower worlds. The interpretation of the serpent decorative patterns then influences the function of the Naga Temple. Through the presence of signs in the form of serpent decorative patterns, the Naga Temple can be interpreted as a “connecting place” that bridges profane and sacred activities in the worship rites within the Panataran Temple Complex. Keywords: Naga Temple, Serpent Decorative Patterns, Semiotics, Connecting Structure   Abstrak. Ragam hias merupakan salah satu komponen dalam arsitektur candi. Keberadaan ragam hias menjadi sebuah penyerta yang dapat menggambarkan identitas dan pemaknaan sebuah candi. Diantara variasi ragam hias, makhluk mitologi berupa naga menjadi ragam hias khas yang digunakan dalam arsitektur candi. Hal ini tampak pada Candi Naga yang berada di Kompleks Percandian Panataran. Penelitian ini menelisik bagaimana variasi ragam hias yang ada di Candi Naga, beserta pemaknaannya yang dapat dikaitkan dengan fungsi Candi Naga. Upaya tersebut dilakukan dengan menginterpretasi makna ragam hias di Candi Naga menggunakan teori Semiotik Peirce dengan mengacu cerita Samudramanthana yang terdapat pada Kitab Adiparwa. Keberadaan ragam hias Naga pada Candi Naga tidak sepenuhnya merupakan penggambaran atas cerita Samudramanthana. Argumen tersebut didukung fakta bahwa tidak adanya penggambaran Asura yang menjadi pelengkap cerita Samudramanthana. Ikon naga sendiri dalam ragam hias di Candi Naga merupakan tanda dari adanya mitologi mengenai makhluk naga. Hal ini berkaitan dengan hewan naga yang menjadi makhluk perantara dunia atas dan bawah yang disucikan oleh masyarakat. Adanya interpretasi ragam hias naga tersebut kemudian mempengaruhi fungsi Candi Naga. Oleh sebab itu, Candi Naga dapat dimaknai sebagai “tempat penghubung” yang menghubungkan aktivitas profan dan sakral dalam ritus peribadatan di Kompleks Percandian Panataran.

Abstract

Abstract. The Use of Tombstone Statues: Pre-Islamic Cultural Influence in Islamic Cemetery Complexes in The Bugis Ethnic Region, South Sulawesi. Unlike several previous studies that focused on the discovery and distribution of tombstone statues in the Makassar ethnic region, this research specifically examines the  influence  of  pre-Islamic  culture  on  the  use  of  tombstone statues  in  the  Bugis  ethnic  area,  including  Barru,  Bone,  Pinrang,  Sidrap,  Enrekang,  and  East  Luwu Regencies. The study was conducted with the desk study method, reviewing various literature sources that  document  the  presence  of  tombstone  statues  in  the  Bugis  ethnic  region,  including  the  research reports  of  Archaeological  Center  (Balai  Arkeologi),  scientific  articles,  books,  theses,  dissertations, technical  study  reports,  conservation,  and  zoning  report  from  the  Cultural  Heritage  Preservation Office  (Balai  Pelestarian  Cagar  Budaya),  as well as other online reference sources. This research reveals that the use of these tombstones was suspected to be the influence of pre-Islamic culture, which had developed strongly in the previous period. This is evidenced by the discovery of megalithic statues in  several  areas  in  South  Sulawesi  and  its  neighboring  province  in  Central  Sulawesi,  which functioned as ceremonial media and representations of ancestral spirits. Keywords: Tombstone Statues, Bugis Ethnic, Islamic Cemetery, Pre-Islam   Abstrak. Berbeda dengan beberapa penelitian sebelumnya yang fokus terhadap penemuan dan sebaran nisan arca di wilayah Etnis Makassar, penelitian ini secara khusus mengkaji pengaruh budaya pra-Islam terhadap temuan nisan arca pada kompleks makam Islam di wilayah Etnis Bugis, meliputi Kabupaten Barru, Bone, Pinrang, Sidrap, Enrekang dan Luwu Timur. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode desk study, dengan melakukan penelahaan berbagai sumber pustaka yang memuat kehadiran nisan arca di wilayah Etnis Bugis, baik itu pada laporan penelitian Balai Arkeologi, artikel ilmiah, buku, skripsi, tesis maupun disertasi, laporan studi teknis, penyelamatan, dan zonasi Balai Pelestarian Cagar Budaya, serta sumber referensi lainnya yang tersedia secara daring. Penelitian ini menghasilkan informasi bahwa penggunaan nisan arca di wilayah Etnis Bugis diduga sebagai pengaruh dari budaya pra-Islam yang telah berkembang kuat pada periode sebelumnya. Hal tersebut dapat dibuktikan melalui penemuan arca megalitik di beberapa wilayah di Sulawesi Selatan dan provinsi terdekatnya di Sulawesi Tengah yang berfungsi sebagai media upacara dan representasi roh nenek moyang. Kata kunci: Nisan Arca, Etnis Bugis, Makam Islam, Pra-Islam
