 note = {This is a preliminary report of my field research conducted
in 1975 at a rice-cultivating village near Surakarta City, Central
Java. In this paper, an attempt is made to describe the three
forms of ritual food exchange, and to analyze the components of
these rituals such as each household acting as a host; visiting
neighbours; friends and relatives; prayers; feasts and so on.
The three forms of rituals are as follows;
1) bancakan At the ceremonies concerned with birth and
growth of children, a special food with ritual meaning is given
to the neighbours' children.
2) slamatan Whenever any household wishes to beg forgiveness
and security from the God, souls of ancestors and other
spirits, a small number of neighbours are invited to sit together
to pray, and a set of foods with ritual meaning is divided and
given to them. This ritual is held mostly on the occasions of
rites of passage, ceremonies of housebuilding and on some major
days in the calendar.
3) jagong Also on every occasion of traditional ceremonies,
large feasts are held with a great number of neighbours, friends
and relatives attending. Wives and daughters of the guests bring
gifts of rice or other foods, and assist the host household in preparing
the feast. The quantity of those gifts is determined by the
rigid principle of equal exchange.
These rituals, held almost everyday, relate each household
with others on a reciprocal and egalitarian basis. , This sort of
ritual can be considered as an agency which formulates the relationship
of any individual household with others, as well as with
the God and several kinds of supernatural beings.
Through an analysis of these rituals, two themes concerningthe structure of Javanese society should be made clearer; namely,
what the dominant pattern of social relations among the villagers
is, and how those social relations are ritualized.
