Summary

Pendahuluan

Kebudayaan merupakan sesuatu yang tumbuh dan berkembang di tengah masyarakat dan memiliki nilai-nilai dan norma-norma juga keunikan dan kelebihan tersendiri. Pada kesempatan kali ini peneliti mengkaji satu tari yang merupakan tari tradisional yang ada di Nagari Padang Laweh Kabupaten Sijunjung, yaitu tari Ratok Maik Katurun. Semenjak meninggalnya Datuak Mandaro Sutan muncul ide dari salah satu datuak nan tigo bagala yaitu Datuak Sumandaro (Datuak Rajo Adat), jika ada diantara tiga orang datuak nan tigo bagala meninggal dunia, maka pada saat itu juga akan ditampilkan sebuah tarian tradisional. Melihat peristiwa pada saat itu Datuak Sumandaro (Rajo Adat) selaku pencipta tari Ratok Maik Katurun mewariskan tari ini ke garis keturunan Datuak Mandaro Sutan yaitu cucu beliau yang bernama Indra untuk meneruskan dan mempertahankan Tari Ratok Maik Katurun agar tidak punah, dan tetap dipercayai oleh masyarakat di Nagari Padang Laweh. Tari Ratok Maik Katurun ini dahulunya hanya ditampilkan pada saat meninggalnya salah satu “datuak nan tigo bagala” atau tiga orang yang mempunyai gelar datuak saja yaitu, Issn: 2302-3201. Pendendang ratok pada tari ini adalah wanita yang sudah lanjut usia. (Wawancara: Mardanau 10 Juli 2020)
