Abstract

This study aims to describe the results of Charles Sanders Peirce’s semiotic analysis of the Oncer dance. This research is a qualitative descriptive study with a semiotic approach. Discussion on semiotic analysis uses Peirce’s triadic model. Data collection was carried out through the method of observation, interviews, and documentation, while the analysis consisted of the stages of data description, data reduction, data presentation and drawing conclusions. Data validity was obtained by triangulation. The results of this study indicate the movements of the Oncer dance symbolize tactics in war, namely: 1) Tinduk (the movement of stepping forward, depicting the leave for battle, 2) Bukaq jebak (opening the door), dan 3) Kadal nengos (the movement signifies an alert against the enemy). The three dance movements have meanings. Bucu sorok represents war strategies, kroton kombol represents unity as an intact flower bud, sandat kebah represents progress as a blooming flower, and cempake randang represents the aftermath of war in which many die as a result of battle.
