Rampokan
thumb thumb Rampokan is a traditional Javanese tiger fight. Panthers or tigers were released from wooden boxes and surrounded by warriors with lances trying to prevent it from breaking out. The rampokan would take place towards the end of the Ramadan. It symbolized the overcoming of evil. If the tigers and panthers succeeded in breaking the circle, it was an omen of disaster as famine. The ritual died out in the early 20th century.〔(Fengshui in China: Geomantic Divination Between State Orthodoxy and Popular Religion ) Ole Bruun, University of Hawaii Press, 2003 pages 242, 243〕 A battle between a tiger and buffalo was also often part of the event.〔http://www.academia.edu/5407176/A_Tiger_in_the_Heart_the_Javanese_Rampok_Macan〕 ==References==
