 The history of Rentak Bulian
One of the Malay culture in Indragir Hulu is Rentak
Bulian Dance. Rentak Bulian Dance is one of the leading
arts of Indragiri Hulu Regency. Rentak Bulian is a
medical ritual, which is taken from the words Rentak
Bulian. Rentak is meant to flinch or step, and Bulian is a
place to stay for creatures or spirits in the language of the

magical, and before the dance rituals are carried out several
things need to be discussed by dancers. The ritual is as follows:

virgins of beautiful who are not dirty (clean from menstruation),
and 1 (one) mighty young man who memorizes correctly the
movements and practices of each There are no dancers who are
related to the blood of all dancers who get permission from the
traditional elders of the village. Before being watched, the
dancers have been smoked with agarwood. If this dance ritual is
heeded, it will usually get harm that you don't want.
In the course of dance, the dancers will usually choose
balinese dancers by supernatural beings. Usually male
