Barong Bali
“BARONG” merupakan peninggalan kebudayaan Pra Hindu yang menggunakan boneka berwujud binatang berkaki empat atau manusia purba yang memiliki kekuatan magis. Diduga kata barong berasal dari kata bahrwang atau diartikan beruang, seekor binatang mythology yang mempunyai kekuatan gaib, dan dianggap sebagai pelindung.
Tari Barong melukiskan tentang pertarungan kebajikan (dharma) dan keburukan (adharma) yang merupakan paduan yang selalu berlawanan (rwa bhineda). Karena itu Barong merupakan benda sakral yang sangat disucikan oleh masyarakat Hindu Bali.
Tarian ini merupakan peninggalan kebudayaan Pra Hindu yang menggunakan boneka berwujud binatang berkaki empat atau manusia purba yang memiliki kekuatan magis.
