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. Explorative-descriptive writing method with inductive reasoning is used to get an answer to the problem being proposed. Inductive reasoning begins at the study of data that can give a general conclusion or empirical generalization after data analysis stage process. Golden artifacts are just like pieces of art that bear a unique function in the society as well as describing such social, cultural, and religious aspects of the Bataknese in the ancient North Sumatra.AbstrakArtefak emas cukup beragam jenis dan pola hiasnya, di antaranya digunakan sebagai perhiasan. 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.

Abstract‘Borotan’ is a Batak Tobanese vocabulary meaning “stake”, to which an animal is tied before being sacrificed in a traditional Bataknese ceremony. ‘Borotan’ physically looks like a simple piece of wood but it bears a profound interpretation and has become an important part of reconstructing the religious aspects of the ancient Bataknese. Thus, this writing aims at explaining the religious importance of ‘Borotan’. The religiousness being discussed here is its interpretation of form and function in the religious activity in the past and present. Inductive reasoning is expected to produce an answer to the problem question through the analysis of the observed variables. The observation results show that the Bataknese try to communicate with the divine power in the ceremony to create two-way communication, vertically and horizontally.AbstrakBorotan merupakan istilah kosa kata Batak Toba yang berarti kayu pancang, tempat hewan diikat sebelum dikurbankan dalam sebuah tradisi upacara adat Batak Toba. Secara fisik borotan terlihat sebagai kayu biasa saja, namun secara pemaknaan sangat dalam dan menjadi bagian penting dalam usaha merekonstruksi aspek religi masyarakat Batak masa lampau. Maka tujuan dari tulisan ini adalah untuk menjelaskan bagaimana borotan dilihat dari aspek religiusitasnya. Religiusitas dalam hal ini adalah pemaknaan borotan terkait bentuk dan fungsinya dalam aktivitas religi masyarakat Batak masa lampau dan hingga terkini. Melalui kerangka pikir induktif diungkapkan jawaban atas permasalahan tersebut dengan menganalisisnya berdasarkan variabel pengamatan yang dibuat. Dari hasil pengamatan dapat disimpulkan bahwa masyarakat Batak berusaha mengadakan komunikasi dengan kekuatan adi kodrati sehingga dalam kegiatan upacara terjadi hubungan dua arah yaitu secara vertikal dan horizontal.

Typology Analysis

Archaeological researches in Indonesia have discovered a number of various historical and archaeological artifacts that belong to cultural heritage. As historical evidences, this cultural heritage is an important source of the plural information and messages of the past life of our society. It is remarkable that this cultural heritage has some problems for example problem of typology, function, meanings, and the other for the society. Studying the problems, it is interesting to do research on its function as a teller of the past history that contained various aspects of the life of our society that not yet studied until today. By learning the problems, this research goal is to find the answer of the problems. To reach this goal, we do this research gradually by collecting data through literature study and field observation along with interviews. The next step is analysis carried out through methods of typology analysis, contextual, functional analysis, ethno archaeological and ethno historical approach. Finally the result showed that the function of our cultural heritage is as teller of the many-sided aspects of the past history of our artifacts such as technological aspects, social, and religious aspects but it is impossible to get full completed information due to some reasons. Keywords: archaeological and historical artifacts, cultural heritages, teller of the past.  AbstrakPenyelidikan arkeologi di Indonesia sudah berhasil menemukan artefak sejarah dan arkeologi yang beraneka ragam, yang tergolong sebagai warisan budaya.
