▼ This project explores the involvement of Christian groups in Pride parades in Los Angeles, San Francisco and Sydney. Pride parades are the largest and most public expression of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex and queer (LGBTIQ) identity, capturing a diverse range of voices. Their associated festivals and parties make the parades important social events for building LGBTIQ community. As such, participation in these parades is important for Christian groups that are affirming of LGBTIQ people. However, religious voices remain the loudest opponents of the LGBTIQ movement’s claims for social and legal recognition. Anti-gay religious groups often target parades to proclaim their beliefs that homosexuality is deviant, and some attempt to prevent the parades from happening at all. In Western countries, these voices are overwhelmingly Christian. LGBTIQ Christians thus often express a sense of being caught between two extremes, and sometimes do not feel a sense of belonging in either their own religious tradition or in the LGBTIQ community. Informed by standpoint theory, this project uses ethnographic research methods, including participant-observation and semi-structured interviews, to provide a ritual analysis of Christian participation in Pride. Through the researcher’s participation in and observation of these events, three ritual spaces were identified for analysis: worship services, the fête, and the parade. In all three spaces, the groups included in this study drew on rituals and symbols from both their religious traditions and the LGBTIQ movement, and combined them to publicly express an integrated identity. The study also identifies some of the ways in which these groups navigated tensions between Pride culture and Christian culture, particularly through their responses to the commercialised and sexualised aspects of Pride. The study offers insights into the contemporary LGBTIQ Christian movement and its relationship to the broader LGBTIQ community.

▼ This thesis examines spirit mediumship in Chaiyaphum, a province in northeast Thailand. It explores the subjectivity, sociality, personhood, and religiosity of Isan people in relation to modern processes of state formation and socio-economic change. Based on long-term ethnographic fieldwork in Chaiyaphum, the thesis maps the rich pantheon and networks of spirit mediums in this province and pays close attention to ritual embodiment, performativity and personhood. Documenting the centrality of mediumship in domains that range from political legitimation to healing, the findings challenge the presumption that this form of vernacular religiosity is archaic, marginal or waning. Supernaturalism is strongly manifest in the lives of the people of contemporary Chaiyaphum and functions as a supple node for assimilating new concepts and symbolizing and negotiating new relationships in society. The thesis analyzes Thailand as a ritual state where people’s life and the state’s affairs are full of ritual practices. Spirit cults crucially contribute to state formation and nationalism. Ritual performances around historical figures that are enacted by the local people reproduce their subjection under the Thai state. Such spirit practices from the margins contain spectral power and maintain the central state’s power and the monarchy’s auratic potency. At the same time they draw the charismatic power of the central state into local circuits of sociality and meaning. In a region considered the powerhouse of state Buddhism, local spirit cults are not subservient to, undermined by, or detached from state Buddhism. They form a mutualistic relationship with Buddhism to serve people’s proximate needs. The thesis documents the intriguing world of medium-abbot, medium-monks, and spirit mediums whose techniques and authority are modeled on Buddhism, introducing the reader to a cast of practitioners whose identities disrupt the presumed hierarchies between Buddhism and mediumship. Spirit mediumship is central to the reproduction of Isan personhood in a dynamic and shifting globalized social landscape. In a region marked by high levels of labor mobility and social fragmentation, spirit mediums serve as the linchpins for recombinant forms of sociality and selfhood built around an idiom of spiritual kinship. Spirit mediumship can be considered as a contemporary vernacular of empowerment. Spirits facilitate the recognition of female desire and the enactment of extra-domestic feminine social projects. Mediumship encompasses heterogeneous forms of desire and sexuality that conflict with conventional modernist identities. As a healing discipline, mediumship illuminates a material theory of the self and comprises a corporeal technology for mending afflicted personhood through ritual enactments. The multisensory and…

▼ This research project has investigated ways in which visual qualities enhance the evocative power of ritual objects. Through the medium of cloth and thread the project aimed to find ways in which to visually represent intangible aspects of ritual such as wonder and talismanic protection. A key element of this aim was to explore ways in which to represent ritual action in still objects. The impetus for this project came from my own experiences of Catholic ritual and its objects, however it also considered a wider range of traditions of ritual practice both religious and secular. The project was not concerned directly with the spiritual, but rather with the very human activity that surrounds it. I was interested to discover what it was about ritual objects that distinguished them from other more 'everyday' objects, that is, what made them special. In order to carry out this investigation I considered various functions of existing ritual objects. These included their ability to manifest in material form what is essentially immaterial (prayers, intentions, hopes, and sentiments); to condense symbols; to evoke a sense of wonder and awe; to separate what is considered to be sacred from the profane; to be symbolically rather than physically instrumental; and to provide manuals for ritual action. My work is located primarily with reference to the work of other textile artists such as Anne Brennan, Louiseann Zahra and Elsje King who employ cloth and thread to embody a sense of intangible presence. Reference is also made to some of the works of Annette Massager and Janine Antoni which deal directly with ritual-like practice. My contribution to this field lies in the creation of quasi ritual objects which borrow existing aspects of ritual to explore how form, colour, ornament, labour, and material can be used to enhance an objects perceived 'power'. Primary to the development of these objects was the consideration of ways in which to visually suggest ritual action. This was explored through the use of physical form; stitching as a metaphor for the intense focus and repetitive nature of ritual participation; as well as the connotations that thread has of connectedness and its suggestion of paths.

▼ The subject of this thesis is the material culture excavated from Samtavro, a unique cemetery in the Caucasus owing to its size and prolonged usage. Situated in the modern republic of Georgia, the 20-hectare site has been excavated by four expeditions since the early 1870s. With four thousand burials reportedly exposed, archaeological inquiry has demonstrated that the cemetery was used from the Middle Bronze Age until the Late Antique period. The present work undertakes the first substantial research into the results of the third and fourth expeditions. Primary evidence consists of legacy data from the Soviet-era, collected during 1976–1986, 2000 and 2002. This is supplemented by the results of the most recent excavation work, undertaken in 2008–2010. Records for all 1075 documented graves have been examined. These Samtavro tombs represent important evidence about a variety of mortuary rituals practiced at this site, and the people whom these concerned. The burials have generally been dated from the first to sixth centuries CE, during which time Samtavro was at the heart of Iberia, a notable kingdom in the South Caucasus. This spans the Roman and Late Antique periods, as well as Iberian conversion to Christianity. The region has at all times been associated with surrounding and frequently more powerful neighbours, and this extends likewise to the dates in question. Simultaneously, a range of cultural influences is apparent in Iberian mortuary rituals, as verified at Samtavro, and established regarding Roman and Parthian goods; these elicit questions regarding culture, identity, ethnicity and religion. It is possible that closer analysis of the material will reveal further cultural interactions. The evidence suggests that the southern borders of the Germano-Hunnic empire possibly extended to this region. Because the archives were so meticulously constructed, and carefully preserved, it has been possible to produce detailed information regarding the graves, and especially the material accoutrements of the burials. This is complemented by a general report about the human remains. Additionally, sample material from a number of tombs was radiocarbon dated (and some of these results are as yet unpublished), whilst other samples underwent palynological analyses (publications forthcoming). Typological, chronological and statistical analyses of the Samtavro mortuary remains have articulated defined shifts in burial practices. In total, 9 tomb types, 37 artefact types, and 320 artefact subtypes were identified. Biological sex distribution and age brackets are also presented. Funerary assemblages are overwhelmingly personal and decorative, despite the other transformations that the mortuary material reveals. A major change is detected in the late 4th century CE, when stone cist tombs replace tile-lined graves and multiple depositions, commingled and disarticulated, replace inhumations laid in the supine position. Cranial modification and secondary burial are also evident at the site. This research makes its…

▼ This project investigates the depositional practices of the towns of Roman Britain. The material remains of these depositional events are characterised by the appearance of certain objects and bodies within particular subterranean features. The most common types of objects and bodies found within urban centres include complete and almost complete pottery vessels, dogs and other domestic species, infants and sometimes metal objects and personal objects. The most common feature types are shafts, pits and wells with some evidence for deposits made underneath buildings or other structures. This investigation was motivated by the suggestion that urban depositional practices may have been distinct in form and function from those found in other location types such as rural areas. Furthermore, previous research into the subterranean deposits of Dorchester and Silchester has proposed diverse cultural origins for these practices. Although suggestions have been made regarding the nature of urban depositional practices in Roman Britain, systematic analysis of a large body of data from urban locations has not previously been undertaken. Analysis of a large number of subterranean features and their contents from urban sites was compared to analyses of subterranean features from three other location types: non-urban sites, sacred precinct sites and Roman military forts. An emerging pattern of difference between the characteristics of urban deposits and those found in other locations was further tested via close analysis of the three main case studies of Silchester (Calleva Atrebatum), Dorchester (Durnovaria) and Verulamium. It was found that there was a particular set of characteristics that were common to urban depositional practices of Roman Britain. There were also distinctive changes to all of the case studies’ depositional practices during the third century AD. Furthermore, the close analysis of the three case studies also revealed that there were inter-urban differences in depositional practices, particularly in terms of spatial distribution of these features. These differences were then read for variations in processes of urbanisation and cultural change over time. Comment is also made on the nature of urbanisation in Roman Britain and how at each site the ‘Roman town’ was translated in a unique and place-specific manner.

Research Doctorate - Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)

This thesis examines the coexistence of traumatic themes and Masonic content in the work of contemporary visual artists. The project originated with a discovery of the depiction in my own artwork, produced in the context of a professional art career, of traces of terrifying early initiatory experiences in the context of a Masonic Lodge and using Masonic ritual and regalia. A number of key Masonic authors suggest that the Order draws on a mixed ancestry that contains not only the orderly and sombre rituals based on the practices of the early cathedral builders, but also initiatory rites from various cult groups of the Classical world that involve a course of severe and arduous trials. Recent research by scholars examining cult practices has indicated the existence of Masonic ritual abuse of children, based on the reports of a substantial number of survivors in western countries. Premised on this discovery, the thesis constitutes a feminist and interdisciplinary investigation into the impact of hidden fraternal initiation practices on the production of contemporary art. Examining Masonic themes, symbols and allegories in the context of the contemporary debates about trauma, the thesis initially argues that the concepts used to describe the impact of trauma on the individual psyche may be observed in symbolic form in the rites and practices of the Masonic tradition. This leads into an exploration of the work of five high profile international contemporary artists - the American artists Matthew Barney, Bruce Nauman and Paul McCarthy, an early career painter Mark Ryden, and the Australian artist Ken Unsworth - as case studies, arguing that similar traces of initiatory trauma, along with Masonic references, may be identified in their work. Incorporating insights from trauma theory, scholarly discussions of initiation rites and ritual abuse, combined with knowledge of Masonic practices, this groundbreaking study sheds new light on these artists' work, in particular, on those aspects of the work that have hitherto remained obscure and perplexing for critics. The thesis also includes an examination of my own artwork in this light.

Higher Doctorate - Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)

The objective of the research that resulted in this thesis was to establish whether the practice of concealing objects in sealed voids in old houses and other buildings, widely known in the United Kingdom for many centuries, also occurred in Australia. The supplementary tasks were to establish how widespread it was, the period in which it occurred, and whether the practice displayed the same characteristics as in the United Kingdom. These objectives necessitated the discovery, photography and recording of as many concealed objects as could be located. Distinguishing qualifying objects from random losses or strays was based upon personal experience in the field together with information derived from research in the UK and discussions with colleagues in this area of research in that country. Following on from that, my intention was to place this custom within the framework of folk magic rituals carried out in England until the early-mid 20th century. By confirming that folk magic was intricately woven into the lives of the English people a high probability that such practices were brought to Australia by convicts and settlers became evident. This research required an unusual methodology in that the virtually complete absence of any contemporary documentation, an absence of record that is recognised by UK researchers, suggested that a similar void might exist in Australian archives and libraries. My own prior extensive research into Australian domestic architecture had already failed to identify any references to such practices in this country in the literature relating to architecture, social history or the building trades in both Australia and England. The focus of the research project therefore was to find as many concealed objects in Australian structures as possible and to examine and record these finds in an effort to understand the practice from a scrutiny of the objects and the place and manner of their concealment. The discovery phase was implemented by means of media releases, radio and television interviews, published articles in mainstream and heritage media and by lectures to specialist groups, particularly archaeologists. The result of this work, extending over a period of more than six years and which included travel to Tasmania, Victoria, South Australia, Queensland and within New South Wales, resulted in the accumulation of a significant number of finds of deliberately concealed objects. These have been recorded in a National Catalogue of Finds on which this thesis is based. It was confirmed that objects, which in the context of this research include boots and shoes, garments, cats and a variety of domestic artifacts and children's toys, were concealed in Australian houses and buildings, that they were both numerous and extremely widely distributed, that the types of objects and their placements were the same as those found in the United Kingdom and elsewhere and in consequence that a folk magic custom long established in the United Kingdom was practiced…

"December 2005".

Bibliography: leaves 327-357.

Characteristics of ritual abuse discourse – A plethora of theorists (and of differences between them) – Defining ritual abuse: differences, disputes and bad faith – Allegations, investigations and trials – Abuse accomodation and recovered memories – Moral panic and witch hunt – Witch craze – Outsiders, accusations and obligations – Accusations of ritual abuse in Australia – Witches and pedophiles – Conclusion.

Allegations of "ritual abuse" were first made in North America in the 1970s and early 1980s. It was claimed that an extremely severe form of sexual and physical child abuse was being perpetrated by Satanists or the devotees of comparably unorthodox religions. Perpetrators were often supposed to be invloved in other serious criminal activities. Allegations were subsequently made in Britain, Holland, Australia and New Zealand. The thesis examines the bitter debates that these claims provoked, including the dispute about whether ritual abuse "really happens". – The thesis also contributes to the debate by providing some anthropological insights into why these strange and incredible claims were made and why they were accepted by certain therapists, officials, journalists and members of the public. It is argued that the panic over ritual abuse was a panic about what anthropologists know as "witchcraft" and the thesis makes this argument through an analysis of the events (mainly discursive events) of the panic. The thesis in particular takes up Jean La Fontaine's argument about the similarities between accusations of ritual abuse and those made against "witches" in early modern Europe and in non-Western societies. The similarities between the kinds of people typically accused of perpetrating ritual abuse and those accused of practising witchcraft are considered, with a special emphasis on those cases where accusations were made by adult "survivors" and where alleged perpetrators were affluent and of relatively high social status. The thesis examines how supposed perpetrators of ritual abuse were denied the social support properly due to them and how accusations – and the persecution that followed – achieved certain political, professional and personal ends for survivors and their supporters. – The thesis also considers similarities between "crazed" witch hunting and the recent spread of the panic about ritual abuse throughout much of the English-speaking West. The peculiar panic about witch-like figures that occurred in Australia – especially in NSW – is examined. The thesis shows how, at a time when Australians had become very sceptical about claims of ritual abuse, activists were able to incite and affect the latest of a succession of homophobic panics in Australia.

▼ This study establishes a framework for the practice and the acquisition of mathematical knowledge. The natures of mathematics and rituals/ritual-like activities are examined compared and contrasted. Using a four-fold typology of core features, surface features, content features and functions of mathematics it is established that the nature of mathematics, its practice and the acquisition is typologically similar to that of rituals/ ritual-like activities. The practice of mathematics and its acquisition can hence be metaphorically compared to that of rituals/ritual-like activities and be enriched by the latter. A case study was conducted using the ritual metaphor at two levels to introduce and teach a topic within the current year eleven West Australian Geometry and Trigonometry course. In the first level, instructional materials were written using a ritual-like mentor-exemplar, exposition, replicate and extrapolate model (through the use of specially organised examples and exercises) based on the approaches of several mathematics text book authors as they attempted to introduce a topic new to the West Australian mathematics curriculum.In the second level, the classroom instruction was organised using a ritual-like pattern with direct exemplar mentoring and exposition by the teacher followed by replication and extrapolation from the students. Embedded within this ritual-like process was the personal (and communal) engagement with each student vis-a-vis the establishment of the relationships between the referent concepts, procedures and skills. This resulted in the emergence of solution behaviours appropriate to specific tasks imitating and extrapolating the mentored solution behaviours of the teacher. In determining the extent to which the instruction, mentoring and acquisition was successful, each student's solution 'behaviour was compared "topographically" with the expected solution behaviour for the task at various critical points to determine the degree of congruence. Marks were allocated for congruence (or removed for incongruence), hence a percentage of congruence was established. The ritual-like model for the teaching and acquisition of mathematical knowledge required agreement with all stake-holders as to the purpose of the activity, expert knowledge on the part of the teacher, and within a classroom context requires students to possess similar levels of prerequisite mathematical knowledge.This agreement and the presence of an expert practitioner, provides the affirmation and security that is inherent in the practice of rituals. The study concluded that there is evidence to suggest that some aspects of mathematical ability are wired into the cognitive structures of human beings providing support to the hypothesis that some aspects of mathematics are discovered rather than created. The physical origin of mathematical abilities and activities was one of the factors used in this study to establish an isomorphism between the nature and practice of mathematics with that of rituals. This isomorphism provides the…

▼ Based on an ethnographic study of the religious life of ordinary people in the town of Dongpu, this research explores the relationships between: religion and state power; Chinese ritual (li, 礼/禮) tradition and Christian culture; and religion and intangible cultural heritage in contemporary China. This research found that both the practitioners of Chinese rituals and the Christian community deploy tactics to resist and negotiate with the hegemonic official culture through spatial and religious practices in their everyday life. Chinese ritual practices dedicated to deities and ancestors are defined as idol worship in the doctrine of Christianity and denigrated as feudal superstition in the official discourse of scientism, materialism and atheism. The contrast between Christianity as an orthodox religion and Chinese ritual practices as feudal superstition contributes to the religious hegemony of Christianity over the Chinese ritual tradition, thus rendering most Chinese rituals as lacking in status, although some Chinese rituals have gained legitimacy as intangible cultural heritage. The practice of intangible cultural heritage in contemporary China is subject to the global heritage movement spearheaded by UNESCO and China’s domestic political, cultural and economic agendas. Ordinary people deploy tactics to negotiate with the local/state power in response to the practice of top-down imposed intangible cultural heritage, thus gaining the legitimacy of practicing these rituals. This research presents a poetics of ordinary people’s everyday life. The religious life of ordinary people is foregrounded and exerted as a self-evident entity and heterogeneous culture. This study demonstrates that everyday life can become a cultural experience of alternative modernity and an arena of cultural autonomy. Religious life is never simply equivalent to the homogenising ambitions of any power, such as capitalism, atheism or materialism. The practice of intangible cultural heritage is a process of selecting the ‘heritage in perception’ (i.e., heritage identified and safeguarded based upon UNESCO’s Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage) from the ‘heritage in essence’ (i.e., heritage as the self-evident foundation of ordinary people’s everyday life). The safeguarding of intangible cultural heritage channelled from top-down may give rise to cultural hegemony due to the classification of intangible cultures into superior and inferior resources according to the official discourse of developing an ‘advanced culture’ and the principles of a market economy. The expert-centred mechanism of intangible cultural heritage identification rules out the cultural autonomy of genuine inheritors of intangible cultural heritage. Additionally, the identification of the intangible cultural heritage as a narrowly understood territorial property causes conflicts between nations and regions. This may stop the transmission of cultures among ordinary people and undermine UNESCO’s initial agenda of promoting the cultural diversity…

▼ Neonatal male circumcision has been practiced for centuries. Contemporary debate is dominated by those who claim circumcision is necessary for health reasons, and those who argue that it violates autonomy and inflicts harm. Jews are beginning to interrogate their ancient ritual and question whether it is a necessary violence, and whether this violence can be absolved? The purpose of this dissertation is to consider the relationship between circumcision, violence, and morality. My research problem asks: Because circumcision is violent, does it necessarily mean that circumcision is immoral? Is there another way of conceptualising circumcision that thinks violence differently? In other words, can something that is violent be ethical? My questions are: 1. What is violence? What are the typical features and attributes of violence? 2. What is circumcision and why is it practiced? What moral commitments guide the practice?3. How does Jewish ritual circumcision reveal the limitations and possibilities of conventional understandings of violence?What implications does Jewish ritual circumcision have for those who consider circumcision as violent and immoral?To address these questions, I adopt textual method of analysis that is inspired by Jacques Derrida who defines text as a means of accessing the world. This perspective allows me to treat circumcision as a text. I look at three different versions of this text: proponents of circumcision, anti-circumcision activists, and Jewish ritual circumcision. My argument uses different perspectives on violence (such as Sigmund Freud and René Girard, along with Derrida), in addition to a range of Jewish scholarly texts (such as the Torah, Talmud and a Kabbalistic narrative). I argue that contemporary arguments about circumcision exhibit attributes of division, externality, and inflexible moral values, and my intervention into the debate seeks to explore how we can think of the violence of circumcision beyond opposition or externality. I argue that the Jewish ritual allows us to think of violence as generative, such that there is violence inherent in the making of text, and the making of bodies.

▼ There has been an increase in the use of Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) in cancer populations, with reported higher prevalence rates in women than in men. Men with a variety of cancers have been understudied in CAM research, as well as the contribution and involvement of their significant others, like close family members or/and close friends. The aim of this thesis was to investigate the use of CAM in men after a diagnosis of cancer. Specifically, the research aimed to explore how significant others impact on men’s decisions to (continue to) use CAM, how they negotiate, talk, and practice CAM in everyday life, and how this affects their interpersonal relationship. A mixed methodological approach with two independent but related studies addressed the research aims: one quantitative study (survey) and one qualitative study (semi-structured interviews). The results are presented in two published and three submitted papers that contribute to our understanding of CAM use in men affected with cancer and how their CAM uptake is shaped by their social networks. Paper one reports the results of an integrative review of the literature, and indicates that significant others of patients with cancer often act as information seekers, advocates, and/or role models in patients’ decision-making about CAM. Despite the limited number of reviewed studies about familial involvement available, the results suggest that there may be important interpersonal consequences following patients’ decision to use or not use CAM, that need to be further explored. Paper two reports the results from the Study 1 survey involving 403 Australian men affected with cancer, a convenience sample of consecutive patients visiting two public and two private outpatient cancer clinics in Metropolitan Adelaide. The results indicate that the majority of male cancer patients (61.5%) have experience with CAM at some point during their cancer treatment, while more than half of the study sample (52.9%) were currently using CAM whilst receiving conventional medical treatment. It was also shown that family were the most frequent providers of information about CAM, and were significantly more often involved in patients’ discussions about CAM use than medical professionals. Papers three, four, and five report the results of Study 2, involving qualitative analysis of 43 semi-structured interviews with 26 men and 24 significant others, thereby exploring in-depth participants’ perceptions and experiences of CAM. Paper three indicates that men with cancer use CAM for individual and social/interpersonal reasons, a unique category augmenting those previously discussed in the literature. Discourse analysis highlighted how the interpersonal dimension impact on men’s decisions to uptake CAM, and how the use of CAM functions to connect the male cancer patient with his social network. Paper four reports on the variations of significant others’ involvement in men’s CAM uptake and maintenance, and indicates that CAM is sometimes practised as a shared and/or private… Advisors/Committee Members: Eliott, Jaklin Ardath (advisor), Wittert, Gary Allen (advisor), Olver, Ian N.

▼ This thesis is an ethnography of the indigenous religion, education system and social organization of the community living in the central mountains of Sikka Regency on the island of Flores in Indonesia. The question that has motivated my research is ‘how are the ideas and practices of this community’s indigenous cosmology taught and learned so to persist with continuity through generations?’ In answer I explore the ways in which cosmological ideas and practices are taught to be valued as truth as they are embodied during the practical activity of ritual. This study advances a performative theory of ritual education through a combination of Gregory Bateson’s theory of the ecology of mind and Roy Rappaport’s theory of ritual and sanctification I begin with a critical examination of the representations of the community in question that have been made by scholars and neighboring populations. I argue that these representations wrongly imply a static and bounded community. Instead, I contend that the community is constituted by dynamic village and clan relationships anchored on sentimental and structural forms of individual belonging to particular villages and clans. This belonging is principally developed through individuals’ adherence to the indigenous cosmology, locally called Adat. I continue by discussing the educational methods by which this cosmology is perpetuated. Ritual language lessons concerning education insist that from an early age community members participate fully in daily religious life (particularly in the practice of ritual) under the guidance of close family. I then describe the learning environments found in childhood, marriage and mortuary rites. Following Bateson, I argue that during ritual contexts participants ‘deutero-learn’ embodied skills that are patterned by previous experiences, and generate the future conditions, of these same ritual contexts. In addition to traditional educational settings, the Adat cosmology is now taught in Indonesian primary and high schools in ‘local content curriculum’ classes. I compare Adat education based on participation in ritual with that of modern schools, and I argue that in the classroom the indigenous cosmology is abstracted from its performative underpinnings. Adat is embodied differently in ritual and school contexts, and the tensions caused by these differences lead to transformations in Adat knowledge. I end this thesis by contextualizing my findings with national discourses of indigeneity and intercultural education.
