Preservation of Andun Dance in South Bengkulu. Andun dance is one of the dances of South Bengkulu’s people, which is currently less popular. This dance is a form of cultural and traditional art in South Bengkulu that still exists and has Islam and traditional nuance. In a marriage ceremony, for example, this dance is performed for seven days and seven nights. For those with a modern view, the Andun dance is a series of long and tiring processions and should be abandoned or modified. However, because it has become a custom and tradition, most people still carry out this long procession until now, even though it requires a lot of time and money. Andun dance is now less attractive because there are so many foreign cultures that enter South Bengkulu people, especially its young people. Andun dance is also getting worse because the places to express this dance are decreasing in number. For example, South Bengkulu people’s traditional marriage rituals are usually held for seven days and seven nights. Still, at present, the practices held are not carried out that long. Andun dance, which is currently experiencing ups and downs, has not been able to regrow the community’s interest and youth. This research focuses on how the efforts to preserve the Andun Dance in the people of South Bengkulu. One of the efforts made by the government is to carry out the Andun dance festival. In several leading schools, Andun dance is taught as extracurricular activities. The efforts made by the community regarding the preservation of the Andun dance are deliberating so that the Andun dance can be performed by the middle to lower class communities. Besides, artists also carry out preservation efforts by providing guidance or training for Andun dance to their students.Keywords: preservation; Andun dance; South Bengkulu

Islamic Values

The philosophical values contained in the building of the traditional marriage of the Malay community of the City of Bengkulu are a reflection of the socio-cultural relations of Malayness with Islamic values. Historically, Beng- kulu Malay Islam was an incarnation of acculturation and assimilation between Muslims who came to Bengkulu. The position of the process of acculturation of Islam in Bengkulu Malay society, became very significant as the basis of the cultural process of Bengkulu society until now. Acculturation of values and internalization of Islamic values is very func- tional in shaping philosophical values in the custom of marriage of the Bengkulu community. This is expressed in every stage of the traditional marriage, there are ritual processions that are inter-related with local wisdom, Islamic values and other Islamic philosophical meanings.

The article provides a semiotic analysis of the modern Georgian Orthodox icon depicting the Georgian Saint, the patron Saint of the city of Abo Tbileli. A Georgian Saint of Arab origin is depicted standing on the Metekh bridge against the background of the city itself. Every detail in the icon has a symbolic meaning and is subject to semiotic analysis. This applies to the Georgian cross in the hands of St. great Martyr, the Golden halo above his head, his robe (turban, chiton and himatiy), the landscape (river, mountains and gardens) and the city itself and its buildings (churches, towers, bridge), the sky above his head. The features of the iconographic style are considered. The main source is the hagiographic work of the medieval Georgian author Ioane Sabanisdze “Martyrdom of Abo”.

The hereby text is a short study on the relationship between architecture and jewellery. In the first part, it presents the history of occurrence of architectural forms in jewellery from antiquity to present day in the European culture. The second part delivers the examples of contemporary artefacts, particularly rings with microarchitecture. The analysis of the collected examples proves that architecture – its form, construction and detail − is a motive of decoration willingly used in jewellery design, often of a symbolic meaning related to the household or the temple (wedding rings, ritual rings). Nowadays, especially in the 21st century, microarchitecture in jewellery often emerges with reference to the place of origin, i.e. the famous building being, most frequently, the commemoration of a journey, able to bring back the memory of a visited city. The architectural jewellery, whose meanings and functions are the subject of the hereby study, has undergone many transformations throughout history. Even though it has transitioned from simple to complicated and decorative forms, from precious and rare to cheap and popular objects of mass production presenting the miniature replicas of buildings, the jewellery nearly always symbolises the city. Much less often the jewellery design occurs with reference to the metaphorical meanings of buildings as a representation of permanency (the tower in Alessandro Dari’s jewellery) or marital union (the house and the temple in Jewish rings).
