mystical legend of rock hanging on the island of Samosir
In addition to the legend of Lake Toba, it turns out there is one that is quite mystical land that is Legend Hanging Rock Naidoo. It is said that the stone hanging around the area was prohibited from issuing rant and indecent or be unlucky.
With a speed boat ride from the shore of Samosir Island, we were invited by the driver of the speed boat to see the hanging rock. Because of the high curiosity, we also want when asked to pull over on a cliff at the side of Lake Toba.
The cliff has a height of 20-30 meters from the lake and at the edge of the cliff we can see a stone that hangs on the cliff side. This is where all the myths or legends of rock hanging stems.
It is said that long ago there was a beautiful girl in Parapat, by both her parents she wanted an arranged marriage by a young man. What warning, the heart of the girl had been tied by another young man who became his idol. He rejected calls to parents to marry someone else and prefer her idol.
Embarrassed already said no to her parents, the girl was so moody and feel sorry for the parents as a byword in their village. After returning from the fields, the girl did not go home, but prefer pensively at the edge of Lake Toba, accompanied by her pet dog called the Gipul.
When night falls, the girl went home with an empty mind. Without realizing it, he does not see a big hole in the road, then mired fall into the hole. The dog when he saw his master fell, he barked to ask for help from others.
In the pits, the girl would prefer to die rather than endure the shame for refusing to cover others. He shouted from the pit, "Merapatlah..merapatlah."
The pit wall was docked and bury the girl. Not long ago, there was an earthquake. Land around Lake Toba fall, leaving only a pile of stones where the hole in the girl. The hanging stone resembles a human being.
It is said that in the area of the hanging rocks, visitors are prohibited from issuing harsh words and obscene because it will bring bad luck. At the base of the cliff, there is also a hole supposedly inhabited by creatures Bunian. Each festival lasts Toba, some traditional leaders give offerings under a rock hanging and in small cave where Bunian creatures originated.

Of course there are two three masterminds behind to draw lines anatomically rope.
Legendary puppeteer
In the past, Sigale-Gale was played only by one puppeteer. Last is the famous puppeteer King Gaius Rumahorbo of village Garoga, Tomok. He has performed at festivals Sigale-gale in Siantar (Simalungun) in the 1930s. In fact, reportedly Sigale-gale plays when it is the result of its own making.
King Gaius known to make Sigale-gale shedding tears and had the ability to rub Ulos (woven Batak) that previously attributed on the shoulders of the wooden puppet. Tear out the course of water flowing from the head Sigale-gale perforated. But how technically removing the still hard to imagine, because it is usually filled with a damp cloth or small containers that fit in the hollow section.
Heir King Gayus Rumahorbo said Sigale-gale played at the festival, now in the Netherlands. One doll again, according to his successor, located in Jakarta. Indeed, the National Museum in a special section of Batak culture never informed save statue Sigale-gale. Rayani Sriwidodo Lopez gave birth to a story book titled Sigale-gale (PT Dunia Pustaka Jaya, 1982) is estimated to be inspired after seeing statues in the museum.
Mystical Behind Making Sigale-gale
The story of the Statue Sigale-gale is still preserved in the village Garoga. The village is about three kilometers from Tomok, and rose toward the left fortified mountains Samosir. Mountains around it known as Naboratan which can mean "very heavy". There is a waterfall, which in the local language is called by the name of Sampuran Simangande.
The waterfalls were supposedly saving strange rocks and mountain position as a very high wall it could further add to the impression of the village known still keep the statue Sigale-gale. It turns out that the background Nature Garoga village has absolutely nothing to do with the appearance of the statue of Sigale-gale. At least in terms of materials like wood and certain ceremony for the statue Sigale-gale.
Kampung Garoga also could not be ascertained as the setting of the story Sigale-gale. This village is just one of the villages besides Siallagan or Ambarita village. Instead of information about a statue Sigale-gale ever from around Silimbat Porsea.
That day, on the porch of a house modern berarsitek, we are shown the two units Sigale-gale who are aged 30 and 70 years. A descendant of King Gaius greeted our arrival with a traditional drink wine and natinombur (grilled fish with sambal concoction Batak).
Some musicians getting ready in the second position behind lay the Sigale-gale with more instruments. About half an hour they play a musical repertoire that context is not far from Batak ritual music categories.
Usually there are seven kinds of ways musicals performed in Batak ritual. But the finished show, we focused more talked about Sigale-gale own.
Associated with the manufacture, sculptures Sigale-gale overwhelmed by mystical or spooky stories. When someone has been willing to make a sculpture Sigale-gale, meaning he is certain to be victim. After completing a sculpture, the maker would soon die. Perhaps this belief is precisely what makes sculptures Sigale-gale become exclusive and never made a lot.
Based on these events, the process of making Sigale-gale then carried out by more than one person. There are special working on the hands, legs, body parts, and head. Maybe together also ropes and kerandanya carved Batak resolved. Number of ropes on each statue are made are not always similar.
On two units Sigale-gale earlier, one of which has a towing rope 17 segments. The first ropes he said absolutely nothing. Movement of the statue took place only with supernatural powers possessed mastermind. The statue is turned on for the sake of supernatural powers in Batak tradition called a gana-ganaan and he can resemble totem. A statue of Sigale-gale maker formerly known as Datu Panggana, driven by an unseen force as well.
The materials used for sculpture Sigale-gale usually from a type of tree called Ingul and jackfruit trees. Special jackfruit tree is used for the hands and head. While Ingul tree to the body and legs. These include the type of wood timber quality and is often used to make boats. There is no symbolic significance to the choice of the second timber. Work on the sculpture Sigale-Gale can take a year.
Origin of Sigale-gale
Done workmanship statue Sigale-gale, the maker or the buyers can not place and keep it inside the house. There is a special place to keep Sigale-gale statue of ancient times. His name was called sopo healers, a playhouse in the middle of rice fields.
Tersebutlah a rich king named Mr. Rahat. He has a son named Si Manggale. These children are expected to soon get a mate. But any woman who likes always refused to accompany him.
Once, the king helped send his son to war in order to expand the empire. The child was also died in the battlefield. To honor his daughter, the king ordered a statue made similar to the child, and lively as possible. The statue was later named Sigale-gale.
But the king order for that statue was placed just a little far from home, namely in sopo healers. Later, during the ceremony of his death, the statue can be picked up for dancing beside his body. So show Sigale-Gale was once held only to a king who lost offspring. But then, the king's habit extended to every person who has no descendants.
Any person who deliberately order a statue of Sigale-gale for that reason is called papurpur sapata (sprinkled promise). When death is inevitable, Sigale-gale with the dance into a kind of dream healers who've run aground for people who do not have children until his death ceremony.
But there is another version of the story Sigale-gale. That said, a sorcerer named Datu Partaoar, wanted to have a boy or a girl. Once he found a beautiful statue in the middle of the woods, just like a girl whose body twisted fabric and earrings. He then took the girl after turning into a human statue.
His wife is also hoping against hope for is to have children gave her name with the name of Nai Manggale. He became the girl who liked population because of its softness. One time he had to get a life companion. However, like his mother, he can not give birth to offspring biologically. He also told her husband named Datu Partiktik so ordered sculptors to make a sculpture that could be dancing next to his body at one time. The statue is named Sigale-gale.
Based on the version we would dance Sigale-gale ever discovered with a couple of men and women. Sigale-gale can etymologically means "graceful". So actually see the impression of dancing dolls Sigale-gale. Either may also be their twins. Its name is the male and female Manggale named Nai Manggale.
Fortunately today Sigale-gale has not disappeared altogether. There are still some of the statues were carved out decades ago. We can still see the remnants of its appearance, although very rarely. If you want to watch live performances of traditional Batak land it, go to Samosir.
Reportedly there are four places to showing it there. Two of them are in easy reach are the tourist attractions and museums Hutabolon Simanindo Tomok. Visitors can order directly show Sigale-gale with a fee. Visitors who want to see it was not limited on the number and age.
Sometimes two or three people who are interested in, such as foreign tourists, can ask the employer to immediately play the show with musical accompaniment gondang Batak and eight to ten dancers retinue.
The delegation of school children too often been to Samosir to witness Sigale-gale in particular the duration of his musical repertoire choices. Repertoire at the two places can be tedious if it exceeds one hour. Especially now that the accompanying music had often used the audio tape recording (playback).
Atmosphere puppet dance performances Sigale-gale is very interesting and entertaining. Imagine, a doll made of wood can dance like a human. It seems like a human being if getting noticed. Doll whose height reaches one and a half meters to be given the Batak traditional costume. Even all the movements that emerged during the show create impressions of examples of human models.
His head can be rotated to the right and left, eyes and tongue can move, hands move like human hands were dancing and can reduce the lower body such as squats time dancing. Though all these moves just above the coffin, where it keeps dolls Sigale-gale after displayed or played. Why did it happen?
