Museum Santet!

Saturday, November 22, 2008 by Eddy Fahmi

Museum Kesehatan

Museum Santet, menyelamatkan dan memelihara warisan budaya, tradisi dan sejarah kesehatan nusantara, dan dunia.

Museum Kesehatan Dr. Adhyatma, MPH - Depkes RI, di jalan Indrapura ini mungkin nggak banyak dikenal orang. Padahal koleksinya nggak kalah unik lho dibanding House of Sampoerna. Bahkan, nggak banyak yang tau bahwa di Surabaya ini 'ada' museum bertema kesehatan. Tapi kalo ditanya tentang Museum Santet, mungkin beberapa pernah dengar.

Jadi, sebenernya apa benar santet itu ada? Apakah praktik tenung itu nyata? Di Museum Kesehatan ini saya lihat sendiri benda-benda yang nggak masuk akal itu, bahkan foto bayi yang tampak penuh tancapan paku di dada dan perutnya, dan rontgen penampakan gotri di dalam tubuh manusia, ha!

Aksesoris & Aura

Pengetahuan tentang santet sebenernya cuman sebagian koleksi Museum Kesehatan ini. Banyak juga informasi tentang budaya, dan sejarah perkembangan dunia medis yang bisa dipelajari. Lengkap mulai dari praktik pengobatan dari daratan Eropa dan Mesir kuno, hingga teknologi-teknologi modern dunia medis dan proses daur ulang sejumlah peralatannya.

Pengobatan dari Barat

Alat Kontrasepsi


Penjelasan Ilmiah Tradisi Leluhur

Pada aspek budaya, mungkin orang pernah tau tradisi kurungan bayi atau kebiasaan 'kerokan' untuk mengatasi masuk angin. Tapi, apa maksud tradisi mengurung bayi tersebut? Atau adakah penjelasan ilmiah dari praktik kerokan? Atau itu hanya sugesti/mitos saja? Ingin tau kenapa keris bisa menyembuhkan penyakit? Di Museum Kesehatan ini kita bisa belajar banyak. Karena memang Museum Kesehatan ini diharapkan mampu menjadi media pendidikan atau pembelajaran bagi masyarakat umum maupun masyarakat ilmiah yang perduli terhadap upaya kesehatan.

Selain tinggi nilai manfaat ilmiahnya, Museum Kesehatan juga potensial jadi situs wisata yang menarik. Dengan sedikit sentuhan pemasaran mestinya banyak orang yang penasaran liat koleksi eksotis binatang-binatang yang bermanfaat dalam upaya pengobatan, binatang-binatang lain yang beracun, atau koleksi jailangkung dan ninik towok di museum ini, atau desain celana anti perkosaan, hahahaaa... Tapi saran saya: tidak perlu takut apabila anda menemukan peta penampakan makhluk halus di sekitar kompleks museum ini. Museum ini sudah 'relatif' aman. Yah, paling tidak, demikianlah yg pernah diomongkan mas pemandunya.

Catatan: Museum Kesehatan dikelola oleh petugas pegawai negeri dari Sub Bidang Jaringan Informasi dan Perpustakaan Pusat Penelitian dan Pengembangan Sistem dan Kebijakan Kesehatan, jadi kalo pas tanggal merah ya ikut libur. Sekedar pertimbangan momen kunjungan. Sedangkan harga tiket masuknya sangat murah, hanya 1.500 rupiah saja.

Museum Kesehatan Dr. Adhyatma, MPH - Depkes RI
Jalan Indrapura, no. 17, Surabaya.

Candi Tikus

Thursday, May 01, 2008 by Eddy Fahmi

Candi Tikus

First, I must thank Astri, Jimmy, Hilman, and all friends at Wisata Surabaya Community. Without these people, it would be difficult for me to visit Trowulan. And it would be even more difficult to learn the history and culture of the Majapahit Kingdom.

In Trowulan, we visited Pusat Informasi Majapahit (The Museum of Trowulan) and some ancient archeological sites. One of these interesting sites is Candi Tikus.

Candi Tikus Candi Tikus Candi Tikus

Candi Tikus is located at Dusun Dinuk, Desa Temon, Kecamatan Trowulan, Kabupaten Mojokerto, Propinsi Jawa Timur, Republik Indonesia.

The story of Candi Tikus was started with the finding of a temple miniature at a public cemetery. Thus the finding led to the excavation of Candi Tikus at 1914 when Kabupaten Mojokerto was ruled by bupati R. A. A. Kromodjojo Adinegoro.

The site was named Candi Tikus (Temple of Rats) because in 1914 there was an epidemy of rats attacking rice field. Thus from the search of rats nest, this archeological site was discovered.

Calculated to be built in the 13th or 14th century, this temple is used for ritual bathing facility (petirtaan). And also considered as cosmos constelation balancing for the spiritual area at the west side (Siti Hinggil).

Candi Tikus Candi Tikus Candi Tikus

The temple was constructed using red brick material at the depth of 3.5 metres below ground level. Rectangular in shape with each side measured as 22.5 metres. The complex of Candi Tikus is very vast and located at one point of a man made irigation canal which is connected to Kolam Segaran. The building of this temple looks like mount Mahameru from the Hindu mythology which is believed to be associated with the spring of holy water (Tirta Amerta).

The temple's construction is formed in multi level terraces. Formation at the north side of the temple has steps downward to the ritual bathing facility. The ornaments at the sides of the steps is already badly damaged. At the first terrace, there are eight temple buildings. At the second terrace is the main temple, surrounded by eight smaller temples. This is the construction that is believed to look alike mount Mahameru. Along the foundation of the temple there are ornaments shaped like makara head and petals of padma flower. The ornaments are made of stones and are used as jaladwara (water tunnel) of the temple. Water from that location is believed to be the holy water.

But, if observed from a peculiar point of vew, the geometry of this temple is quite interesting! In my fantasy, this temple's construction can also be considered as a docking station or runway for aerial transportation medium with 'vertical take off and landing' capability, hehe. But by that time, harrier was not yet in mass production. So, does it make sense if we have had visits from guests from other planets in the past?

Anyway, in the era of Dutch Colonialism, Candi Tikus have had a restoration. Some restoration projects noted in history are: the reerection of main temple tower using cement, and the building of drainage canals to the west using tunnels. And then at the era of National Development, Candi Tikus was again restorated by Direktorat Perlindungan dan Pembinaan Peninggalan Sejarah dan Purbakala by the project of Pemugaran dan Pemeliharaan Bekas Kota Kerajaan Majapahit at 1984-1989.

Well, this note is just a part of the recent Trowulan travel. Please correct me if I missed anything or there is any mistakes in historical notes. Notes on other archeological sites will be published in the following post (but that is not a promise, hehe).

jalan jalan hari pahlawan

Tuesday, November 13, 2007 by Eddy Fahmi

tanggal 10 november 2007 kemaren temen2 milis wisata surabaya bikin acara jalan2 di kota pahlawan. nengok situs2 tua di surabaya, sekaligus mempelajari sejarahnya. makasih makasih banyak pd cak jimmy dan ning astri yg sudah bersedia repot2 jadi panitia.

acara jalan2 kemaren start dari kantor pos besar kebonrojo, terus ke gereja kepanjen, kompleks museum/monumen tugu pahlawan, arca joko dolog, balai pemuda (plus dapur umum/bengkel muda surabaya), sampek finish di kedai es krim jadul zangrandi.

lalu seperti apa menariknya acara jalan2 kemaren? cak angki sudah bikin laporannya disini. jadi aku nggak usah banyak cerita lagi, cukup bantu nge-drive traffic aja kesana hehe. yg penting diperhatikan juga, catetan cak salim soal kesalahpahaman sejarah 10 november 1945. did you know... arek2 suroboyo sebenernya kalah di pertempuran itu? satu lagi, peristiwa perobekan warna biru bendera belanda di hotel oranje itu sebenernya tidak terjadi pd tanggal 10 november 1945, itu kejadian tanggal 19 september. dan sejumlah fakta lainnya yg mungkin sempat slip dari memori bisa ditengok langsung di blognya cak salim.

kalo dokumentasi fotografinya, bisa ditengok di multiplyku:
