Abstract

This research discusses the comparative analysis of the Mamemaki tradition in the city of Asakusa and the Barong Ider Bumi tradition of the Osing tribe of Banyuwangi. The aim of this research is to look for similarities and differences between the two traditions, especially in their performance. This research describes the meaning of tradition, history, as well as procedures for implementation and performance in these two traditions. This research used qualitative descriptive methods and library methods. The data collected comes from literature studies in the form of books, journals, websites, articles, videos and images as support. The results of this research show that Mameki and Barong Ider Bumi have something in common, namely as a tradition to ward off all evil or a tradition to repel evil. The tradition of repelling evil is a tradition of banishing bad luck and aims to bring good luck to the people who practice it. The differences between these two traditions can be seen in terms of time, place and media used. What these two traditions have in common is that they use agricultural grains, namely beans and rice. Meanwhile, the differences can be seen in terms of time, place and audience. Mamemaki is carried out to welcome the new season, namely spring, every year on February 3 according to the solar calendar. Mamemaki is done at temples because it is based on Shinto religious beliefs. Mamemaki is attended by local Japanese and foreign people to worship and travel. Meanwhile, Barong Ider Bumi is performed according to Islamic religious beliefs, namely during the celebration of Eid al-Fitr, namely the 2nd of Shawwal according to the Hijri calendar. This tradition is carried out by holding a procession along the streets of Kemiren Village with the aim of driving away the reinforcements around Kemiren Village.
