Angon Putu Tradition from Purwerejo,Java,Indonesia


In Purworejo one interesting ritual. its name Angon putu ritual, or in the Indonesian language means "shepherd grandchildren". This ritual is performed by couples grandparents who have (at least) 25 grandchildren. Technical rituals take place as shepherd breeder ducks.

All parts of a large family: granddaughter, the child, including the law together. Then the grandfather was in the back row with a grandmother. The grandfather took the occasional whip dilecutkan to the ground. This group brought the convoy from the house to the market (I forget the name of market). In the market, the grandfather must grant all requests for her grandchildren. It is said, will come not a good thing if the request is not granted grandchildren. When finished shopping at the market, the group headed Purworejo square (square-small alunnya once!). After arriving, the group usually perform prayers in the Great Mosque Purworejo. After praying, they eat together as a sign and hope of harmony and lasting prosperity.

Grandfather and grandmother who carry out this ritual is an icon representation lan Mintuno Mimi I often hear in the introduction to the traditional Javanese wedding. They succeeded beyond hard and enjoy being together until Gusti Allah mengkaruniakan children, sons-in-law, and grandchildren get along.
