Knowing and Understanding the Indigenous Cultures of Aceh and Aceh
Nanggroe Aceh - In Aceh living customs of Malay which later became the custom of Aceh, which regulates all activities and the behavior of citizens of syariat Islamic law. The implementation of Islamic law in this province is nothing new. Long before the Republic of Indonesia stood, precisely since the time of the sultanate, Islamic law has penetrated into the people of Aceh. In this case we will recognize and understand Aceh's customs and Aceh culture, here is the full explanation:
Dance of Aceh Adat
The traditional Acehnese dance art also has its own peculiarities and uniqueness, with features such as at first performed only in certain ritual ceremonies rather than spectacles, a harmonious combination of dance, music and literature, massively danced with limited arenas, repetitions monotonous movements in simple and repetitive motion patterns, as well as relatively long presentation times. Behind a new dance emerged in Aceh, which is a dance of lampuan. The dance is not derived from the ancestors of Acehnese society, but was created later as a greeter dance. The most famous Acehnese dance and the most important asset in world culture are saman dance, seudati dance, dance, dance, dance and raya dance. In addition, Aceh also has the art of debus that is applied through the art of dance and tadrisional instruments and modern.
Customary law aceh
Customary law and customary law of Aceh was first proposed by Prof. Snouck Hurgrounje an East Literary Expert from the Netherlands (1894) who studied Islam in Arabia. Before the term Adat Law developed, it used to be known as Adat Recht. Prof. Snouck Hurgrounje in his book de atjehers (Aceh) in 1893-1894 declared the unconfigured Indonesian people's law to be de atjehers or Acehnese customary law. Means that Aceh's customary law stands alone and its position is higher than national law and under religious law. The Acehnese decided a custom case based on the number of scholars who played an important role in Aceh. Nevertheless Aceh's customary law is not absolutely applied as is the Islamic sharia law that prevails in Saudi Arabia. This is due to consideration of the psychological factors of the people of Aceh that are far different from the Arab community.
