Abstract

The seven busts in the plaza of the Faculty of Fine Arts ISI Yogyakarta are monuments honoring the contributions of the predecessors. The seven statues hold significant cultural value within the ISI Yogyakarta community and its surroundings. However, the condition of the seven statues is currently concerning because their existence is threatened by various destructive agents. If they do not receive immediate conservation treatment, it is feared that physical damage will affect the decline in the cultural value of the statues. This research aims to explore the role of art conservation in preserving the cultural value of seven busts in the Plaza of the Faculty of Fine Arts at ISI Yogyakarta. This study focuses on the seven busts in the Plaza of the Faculty of Fine Arts at ISI Yogyakarta, with considerations of relevance, cultural significance, and accessibility as the basis for object selection. Qualitative research methods were used to understand the role of art conservation in preserving the cultural value of the seven busts, with data collection through structured interviews, field observations, and literature studies. Data analysis was conducted systematically to uncover findings related to the cultural significance and the meaning of art conservation of the research objects. The results of the observation show that the physical damage occurring not only threatens the visual beauty of the statue but also has the potential to diminish the symbolic meaning possessed by each statue. The findings of this research highlight the importance of immediate conservation actions to preserve the physical form of the statues. Conservation is not only necessary to maintain the physical condition but also to preserve the cultural significance contained in the seven busts. Based on the findings of this research, strategic steps are needed regarding the preservation of the seven busts.

Abstract

Many people's ignore two Chinese Muslim figures (Tan Eng Hoat and Tan Sam Tjai) and their relationship with the Klenteng Talang is because there are not many local ancient texts that contain them or tell about them. The only text that contains the existence of these two figures and their relationship with the Klenteng Talang is the Klenteng Talang China News. To be able to reveal again the two figures mentioned above and the Klenteng Talang, we need to look again at the Chinese news about the Klenteng Talang, Cirebon. This research aims to re-reveal the role of Tan Eng Hoat and Tan Sam Tjai in the history of the Cirebon Kingdom based on the Chinese news of Klenteng Talang and its current relationship with the Chinese temple in Cirebon. Using intertextual approach with historical method was used in four stages of work, namely heuristic, criticism, interpretation, and historiography to the writings of the Chinese News text of Klenteng Talang. Our informants consists of care takers of Klenteng Talang and official of Harbourmaster and Port Authority Office in Muara Jati. The findings indicate that there is an influence of Chinese Muslims in the history of Cirebon, one of the archaeological remains of which is the Klenteng Talang building in Cirebon.   Klenteng Talang, Tan Eng Hoat, and Tan Sam Tjai had a very close relationship in the history of the Cirebon Kingdom in the Chinese news about the Chinese Temple. Although Tan Eng Hoat and Tan Sam Tjai were Muslims who converted to Confucianism, their relationship with Klenteng Talang cannot be ignored. Tan Eng Hoat played a significant role in the early establishment of the Cirebon Kingdom. Even the idea of establishing the Cirebon Kingdom came from Tan Eng Hoat, who conveyed it to Sunan Gunung Jati. Tan Sam Tjai, who was younger than Tan Eng Hoat, also played a significant role in helping to finance the Islamic kingdom of Cirebon until the end of his life, in spite of the fact he left Islam.

Abstract

Myths, rituals and life stories are interconnected and conveyed through long-standing oral traditions, making them important cultural assets of indigenous peoples around the world. In the Mentawai Islands, myths and rituals are inseparable from the daily lives of the people. The myths are not only communicated within the community but also revealed to outsiders. This research deviates from earlier literature as it aims to explore the relationship between traditional rituals, life stories, myths and modern dynamics in the different valleys to trace the ancestral claims of land ownership. The study employed a qualitative approach. Data was collected through observation and in-depth interviews with Sikerei (shaman), clan elders and notable clan individuals in the thinly populated watersheds in south Siberut Island, complemented by a literature review. The findings show that various rituals and myths about the life journey of the Mentawai people are important to current values. Extended with a unique culture of body tattoos, botanical knowledge, sago staple food consumption combined with animal protein feasts. It can be concluded that myths have a relationship with their living practices they lived, the formation and strengthening of their cultural identities, belief systems and clan land claims in Mentawai. It suggests their indigenous knowledge can opens up a power to see what is not evident to the average mind and contributes to different shades of feeling and experiences.

Abstract

Modernization has shifted the meaning of the philosophy of mikul dhuwur mendhem jero or filial piety of children caring for parents or the elderly in rural Java. Changes in family structure have led to fewer children being able to care for their parents, although the value of filial piety remains in the hearts of children. It is important to explore the shift in meaning in local wisdom-based elderly care mechanisms in the context of modernization. This article aims to describe the importance of redefining the Javanese philosophy of parental care due to changes in family structure and relationship patterns.  The research used qualitative approach. The study was conducted in Bantul, Yogyakarta between May and July 2023. There eight informants involve in this study who are either elderly or caregivers. Data was collected using in-depth interview and observation. The findings show that even though there are four pattern of elderly care (family care, paid care, self-care, and social care), family care is still favor by members of the family. Material becomes a benchmark for the level of devotion to parents that they recognize together, and the role of social mechanisms is still running well, although limited. The level of filial piety of children to their parents is reflected in the quality of care and how well they pay attention. This research emphasizes the adaptation of traditional values to modern realities while maintaining the essence of children's filial responsibilities in the Javanese cultural context.

Abstract

In the digital era, social media platforms have become essential tools for educational institutions to communicate, engage, and shape public perception. This study explores the role of Instagram as an agent of socialization within the context of an Integrated Islamic School, specifically SMP IT Abu Bakar Yogyakarta. This type of research is descriptive-qualitative using a netnography approach. This research analyzes the visual and textual content posted on the school’s Instagram account, along with user interactions such as comments and likes, to understand how values, identity, and community norms are constructed and transmitted in a digital space. Findings indicate that Instagram functions beyond mere promotion; it actively contributes to the process of value internalization among students, parents, and prospective stakeholders. The platform serves as a medium for reinforcing Islamic identity, showcasing school culture, and facilitating participatory engagement that reflects the broader educational mission of the institution. Through curated content and interactive features, the school extends its influence into the digital realm, transforming Instagram into a space of informal yet meaningful socialization. This study highlights the evolving role of social media in contemporary Islamic education and emphasizes the need for intentional and value-driven digital communication strategies. It also presents a novel application of netnography in analyzing religious educational contexts, contributing to the understanding of how traditional institutions adapt to digital environments while maintaining their ideological foundations.

Abstract

This paper discusses the conflict that occurred on land owned by PT. PHP I, which was occupied by the Nagari Kapa community as their customary land. The community requested land rights in order to gain access to the land based on the Babingkah Adat customary system. Therefore, this paper analyses the nature of customary provisions in land ownership and the community's actual motives for occupying PT. PHP I's land. Using critical ethnography approach, it analyses social relations, social inequality, and capitalist hegemony in the palm oil industry. Data was collected using participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and text analysis of the perspectives of the community, traditional leaders, and the legality of land use. The study shows that the transfer of land by traditional leaders (ninik mamak) Nagari Kapa to the state (West Pasaman government) in 1997 was a statement that contained political, legal, and customary elements. Therefore, the customary framework cannot be accessed and cannot be fully applied. The customary framework cannot be accessed and cannot be fully applied. The occupation of land by the Nagari Kapa community represents their resistance and resilience to defend their land. They are not only fighting and reclaiming the land taken by PT. PHP I, but also opposing the arbitrary actions of their ninik mamak, who unilaterally handed over the land to another party. Thus, the social awareness of occupying PHP I's land is a form of aspiration and resistance by the community to reclaim their land rights..

Abstract

This study uniquely examines the role of indigenous communities in turtle conservation in Skouw Yambe Village, Jayapura City, Papua, by employing a descriptive qualitative approach. Unlike previous research, this study provides an in-depth analysis of local community conservation practices specifically focused on four turtle species: green turtle (Chelonia Mydas), hawksbill turtle (Eretmochelys Imbricata), loggerhead turtle (Caretta Caretta), and leatherback turtle (Dermochelys Coriacea).  Unlike previous research that predominantly offered superficial, descriptive accounts of conservation activities, this study delves deep into the complex socio-ecological mechanisms that underpin community-driven environmental preservation. By applying qualitative approach, this study utilizes an integrated methodology of in-depth interviews and participatory observation. A total of nine informants were purposefully selected for this study, representing diverse perspectives within the indigenous community of Skouw Yambe Village. The study reveals a systematic traditional knowledge system for species identification and conservation practices, demonstrating how indigenous communities in Skouw Yambe Village effectively use intergenerational ecological knowledge to protect and manage local turtle populations The conservation process encompasses three critical stages: egg collection, incubation, and hatchling release, occurring between January and May each year. It demonstrates that turtle conservation in this location transcends mere species preservation, representing a manifestation of cultural values and environmental ethics. The community-based conservation model harmoniously synthesizes traditional ecological wisdom with modern conservation methodologies. The approach aims to prevent species extinction, protect coastal habitats, strengthen social cohesion, and empower local communities. The conservation initiative is supported by three fundamental components: high community awareness and participation, synergistic collaboration with government and non-governmental agencies, and conducive natural habitat conditions. Despite challenges such as plastic pollution and coastal erosion, the Skouw Yambe indigenous community has developed an adaptive conservation strategy. The study concludes by emphasizing the urgent need to recognize and support indigenous communities as ecosystem guardians, highlighting the potential of this community-based conservation model as a comprehensive reference for similar programs, while acknowledging the unique socio-ecological characteristics of each region.

Abstract

Indonesia, with its diverse ethnicities, has a meaningful culture to support children's growth and development. This study will examine ethnoparenting of Minangkabau ethnic group, termed manjujai. A qualitative approach was used, conducted in Nagari Kasang, Batang Anai District, Padang Pariaman Regency, West Sumatra with data gathered from in-depth interviews with 20 informants, direct observation of interactions between children, parents, and extended family members. The findings reveal that manjujai serves as an effective medium for strengthening children’s character. This tradition is expressed in various forms such as chants, songs, and simple games that holistically stimulate children’s cognitive, motoric, emotional, and spiritual development. The Minangkabau's extended family system, which is based on a matrilineal structure, reinforces the effectiveness of manjujai by making early childhood caregiving a collective responsibility of the larger family network. Despite concerns about the tradition's potential extinction as a result of modernization, manjujai is still actively practiced in Nagari Kasang, demonstrating the community's social structure and collective awareness of the importance of cultural identity preservation. Thus, Minangkabau ethnoparenting in the manjujai tradition represents a sustainable caregiving practice that positively contributes to child development.

Abstract

This study examines the tradition of nyekar makam Dewi Sekardadu as an element of collective memory in the coastal community of Sidoarjo, Indonesia, focusing on its transformation from a sacred spiritual practice to commercialized cultural tourism. Unlike existing literature, which generally focuses on traditional practices as static cultural artifacts threatened by modernization. This study reveals how the nyekar tradition dynamically adapts through economic integration while maintaining community relevance, introducing a new perspective by showing how collective memory sites can serve dual functions as both unifiers and dividers of communities, with some locations claiming authenticity a phenomenon that has been under-explored in Indonesian cultural tourism studies. Using a qualitative approach, this study was conducted in Kepetingan Village (Buduran Subdistrict) and Wunut Village (Porong Subdistrict) in Sidoarjo. Data was collected using in-depth interview with ten informants, consisting of two traditional community leaders and eight local residents who directly participate in the tradition, supplemented by participatory observation. The study shows significant transformations where spiritual values now account for only 15% of the tradition, while entertainment and economic aspects are dominant. This tradition operates as a habitus within the social arena of coastal communities, where various forms of capital (cultural, symbolic, social, and economic) interact and convert within the context of modernization, while the tomb of Dewi Sekardadu has become a contested site of memory, reflecting the complex dynamics of collective memory. This study contributes to an understanding of how collective memory is dynamically reconfigured through the interaction between changing social habitus and evolving economic arenas, representing adaptive mechanisms rather than threats to authenticity in Indonesian coastal communities.
