Procedure for Marriage Ceremony Of Lembak Tribe

HISTORY OF CULTURE | Procedure for Marriage Ceremony Of Lembak Tribe | The marriage ceremony Lembak tribes in general who are in Bengkulu and especially those residing in the city of Bengkulu at essentially the same, with the degree of sequence as follows:

1. Before the marriage ceremony, performed kegitatan from menindai (see compatibility), betanye (ask), or fuse violence Ngatat Tande (berasan), and Engaged (Eat Ketan),
2. Marriage Ceremony (Kerje / Bapelan), is a sequence of events began to choose kind of hesitation, Arai Concentrated (Kenduri Sekulak), Married, Night Napa, Arai Becerita (Walimahan), and until finally menyalang (wild).

Before the Marriage Ceremony

Selection of a mate on the indigenous tribes Lembak period sometime before the 1950s was still dominated by the desire of the parents (father, mother or a male or female), known as hardening tue. Then there is also the selection of a mate is expressed by the child because they are attracted to someone who conveyed to his parents, if parents wish to continue pleasing then, when parents are not pleased so parents will not continue. Despite the dominance of the parents are still strong but usually on Indigenous Tribes Lembak many parents still ask first for his child to express his desire to match with the child-so-so. The real but asked the child is actually more focused emphasis on notification only, it is because parents are more dominant dominsai. Of the two forms of mate selection is good domination parents and children expressed a desire to parents, the process is carried out starting from the fixed menindai (observing and evaluating).

Parental dominance condition is possible at that time the absence of a more liberal media for young couples to meet and mingle, it more closely. The meeting can only be done when there is a wedding hall in a short time. The dominance of parents to mate at the time of this determination will be apparent when the case on more than 24 years of age for women has not menemukankan soul mate. In cases like these active parents are very clear.

Menindai

Menindai is an activity undertaken by the families of men in observing and evaluating how the match when his son later married into the family (her son) who ditindai. Penindaian process is usually performed by male parents or male experts (such as uncle, progenitor, aunt or grandmother). In doing penindaian visible aspects include:

Family circumstances of women in the sense of family integrity and personality (Aspect Descendants). Behavior, adherence to religion, and includes rupawannya ditindai girl, Crafts and the ability of the women in cooking and so on. The conclusion of the assessment is known as Semengga (meet all criteria assessment conducted earlier).

To craft and skill of the girls in cooking over the past usually the most readily observable by the way: craft will be assessed as well as her house is always clean, neat, and made his home under the salary putung (firewood is arranged under the house, usually home in the community is the home stage Lembak) a lot around the house. To assess the ability of the cooking usually by a party of men would send Kakonan (Courier, like the aunt or grandmother) to visit the girl's home.

If according to the assessment of the family of man there is a match after talking to family on the results of observation and assessment Kakonan together then the process will proceed with betanye (ask) to the family of women. When the match was originally submitted by the child's desire to ask his parents to menindai, then the process penindaian apply as the above process. For now there is a change, which for the determination of a mate is up to the will and the assessment of children, however at this time if you have the desire with the whole village or a hamlet, the activities menindai still looks worn, although the assessment tool such as a sense of the cuisine and the existence of salary putung (wood fuel) under the house no longer exists.

Betanye (Ask)

Betanye means is the first step on the part of men to convey his passion and asked whether the women (girls) have not been marked or promised or betrothed to another man. If the intent if not then disampaikanlah / hajad, to tie an engagement with young girl in the family-tanye (asked). For that the men usually meninta time when we could come up (such intentions is to put the signs / characteristics (Ngatat Tande). At that time then we will usually receive an answer when we asked to come on the appointed day because they want to agree in advance first, for it will have to wait and come on the designated day.

Envoy at betanye which is usually around 3 or 4 people from the immediate family or a mother and father. The tool is brought Foreword complete with lime, areca nut, and so are wrapped with a white handkerchief overlay. Having arrived at a predetermined time, then at the second coming, the messenger is usually still a close family, that the intention is to Ngatat tande (Association of engagement). Characteristics / signs are usually given in two forms, namely: the form of money or valuables in the form of gold (rings).

If the mark is received when it also agreed to when it will be an engagement (attract violence / engaged), anything what is required as a condition. Commonly requested demand can be: a certain sum of (its value depends on agreements and economic conditions and the ability of men sepacara worth), buffalo or goat with the tail so pembawaanya (as is usually done infrequently, usually worth the money has been replaced with or how many pounds of meat). Keris sebila (called Tukat Up), the function of the keris is a weapon and a sign of manhood and responsibility, and sometimes required also sewar (called Pera mate) who use to be given to the shaman of the girl. Apart from that it is usually requested arrival to become engaged to the man to bring equipment such engagement: lemang, bowsprit pandanus, gelamai, and bajek (Diamonds). There are times when these additional ingredients are not asked the woman at the betrothal ceremony will cook rice only (Ketan berkuah).

Implementation betanye (ask) for the time being already loose, and this process tends to have been lost, it is because bertanye process can be performed by both partners, because they have the media to meet (associate or in a language called dim Lembak Mate and communicate with each other's heart .

When the men had been agreed then the talks will dilajutkan the determination about when to schedule the men can come again to deliver the requested it (engaged). Demand in the engaged condition by requesting a keris is rarely done (as customary provisions only) and the demand for livestock such as buffaloes, goats, cows and others made in the form of meat (batai) pounds or so has been replaced in the form of money. To sebilah sewar currently not found again. Additional requests such as lemang, bajek, gelamai and others at the moment will bertungan had almost disappeared, including the Inland Lembak area. If there was an agreement both parties either through the first process or through a subsidiary it will dilanjukan engaged in the process.

Engagement

As explained above, that in earlier times Lembak society in choosing a partner is only through the agreement of parents or known by the term violence tue, where after there is agreement between both parties then both tied in rope engagement is characterized by the presence of (tande) from party men. However, in line with the times and the number of interactions between media flunky girls then this option is no longer dependent on their parents, where when they already feel there is a match to step up to the level of marriage and the single parent immediately apply to the parents of the girl. In the event this application is usually straight talk about marriage and the implementation plan does not take too long, as it also determines how much money delivery requested by the family of the woman.

Engaged night / attract violence.

After a day and time agreed upon arriving engaged, then the men would come to be engaged to carry what has been agreed (mainly in the form of money, while barupa items such as buffalo and pembawaanya) will be submitted when requested by the girl. Apart from delivering the requirements to be met, then at that time also discussed when to schedule a wedding done, for the determination of the schedule at the time as a benchmark is when the harvest period. If the engagement is still in one hamlet (village) then katuas (depati / stakeholder), priests, preachers and bilal women should wait at home or be in the entourage of family men. If between the two candidates differ hamlet then the male carrying indigenous leader, imam and preacher, and so on.

In ancient times the personal engagement that related quite a lot because to carry or deliver the desired requirements such as a few hundred rods lemang, betel leaves and flowers, cake (Joda) as bajek and so requires a lot of people. In addition to that included in the father was engaged as well as mothers. At night the parents engaged men did not participate, because they've let go (surrender) to Rajopenghulu to perform the engagement. Engagement at this time are a little loose, because there are two models of engagement: the first as the old custom in which the engagement to do well before marriage, and the second engagement was held just days before the wedding called Eat Ketan (engagement kerje so).

Kerje engagement so this is often done because of the sudden with the shortness of time or it can also occur because of an accident or be incorrect (pregnant before marriage). If the reason for the shortness of time and cost it before getting engaged kerje done so just put a sign (trait). Time engaged in the past usually done well before the implementation of marriage (can be in six months or more). Engagement is beginning implementation of the planting season. In the engagement period is six months or a year is usually the male, when the prospective in-laws began to fall into the fields, men, women will help families to open fields ranging from cutting, planting (sowing) and when it is harvest helped lift yields ( rice) from rice fields to the village (home). Similarly, the women will help the families of men to harvest (ngetam) in the fields.

On the night engaged dagger usually has not been submitted and will be submitted after completion of the marriage ceremony. When the engagement period through the month of fasting in the past three days ahead of the fasting man delivering food ingredients such as meat, fish to prospective wife (fiance), while the women will deliver dishes from ingredients that have been provided with trays of water with lime (citrus Water juice is boiled and mixed with potpourri) of rice powder with 4 colors as the material for Belanger (clean bath / shampoo). Giving terebut ngida known. Three days before the Eid party also male escort food and cakes are also a day before Eid will be rewarded with the lemon water. By the man who put the lime water will be distributed geleta little by little the family nearby. The current ordinance is rarely seen, even if there are only a part of women who deliver food to the men using the hamper.

After running it for face engagement weddings are usually held back consultations between the girl and the servant of the certainty of time and everything should be prepared. When you have found an agreement Rajopenghulu then contacted again to inform the implementation plan, if the deal does not change the time / agree then on the facing Rajapenghulu advance to request permission to tell and we usually bring a quart of chicken and rice. At this time the procedure is already not as tight as before (even rare).
