Abstract
Keris production has now passed its golden age in the kingdom. Keris is no longer understood as a stab weapon, but a symbol of social status. The owner of a keris is usually limited to the court environment and collectors. This is why the existence of the keris as an artifact and cultural heritage has shifted. The interpretation of the meaning of keris as a national cultural heritage that has aesthetic value and a symbol of social status has become an interesting object of study. This paper is the result of research that criticizes the paradigm that only views keris as a mystical object. This research examines the understanding of the keris in Pusaka Keris magazine by using the hermeneutic method in an effort to reconstruct and reproduce the meaning of keris in the interpretation circle.
