Kabasaran is a traditional Minahasan war dance from North Sulawesi in Indonesia, which is performed by several men cladded in red costume, wielding sword or spear with shiled. The kabasaran dancers daily work as farmers or security guards in the Minahasan villages. But if their village are in danger of being attacked by the enemy, the dancers will turn into ''waranei'' or local warriors.〔(【引用サイトリンク】work=Indonesia Kaya )〕 According to Minahasan custom and tradition, the status as village ''waranei'' (warrior) is hereditary. Which means kabasaran dancers should be the descendants of the kabasaran elders as well. Not all Minahasan men have the opportunity to become a kabasaran dancer; because it is hereditary. Each dancer also has a weapon which is also inherited from generation to generation, this legacy weapons are used during dancing.〔 In general, the basic structure of the dance consists of nine kabasaran dance moves (''jurus'') using sword (''santi'') or nine moves using spear (''wengkouw''), also the stance moves which consists of two steps to the left, and two steps to the right. The dance is accompanied by percussion instruments such as gongs, drums, or ''kolintang'' called ''Pa 'Wasalen'', while the dancers are called ''kawasalan'', which means "dancing by imitating the movement of two fighting roosters".〔 The name ''kawasalan'' then turn into ''kabasaran''. ==See also== * Cakalele 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kabasaran」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
