- Sigale_Gale abstract "Sigale Gale or Si Gale-Gale is a wooden puppet from the Batak people of Samosir Island, Northern Sumatra. Sigale Gale is a well known feature to tourists who visit the island and see it dance. During the dance, the puppet is operated from behind like a marionette using strings that run through the ornate wooden platform that it stands on enabling it to move its arms and body as well as turn its head. There are a few versions of Sigale Gale in existence but the main one sits outside one of the many traditional Batak style houses in Tomok Village, Samosir Island.The wooden figures with jointed limbs were mounted on large wheeled platforms on which, weeping, they danced during funerary ceremonies called papurpur sepata, held for persons of high rank who had died without offspring. The ritual dispelled the curse of dying childless, and placated the spirit of the deceased so that he would do no harm to the community.".
