Feasts of merit were integral to the Bujuur traditional socio-cultural lives. Ikam was one such feast. Despite traditional significance, the celebration of Ikam abruptly ended with the Bujuur’s conversion to Christianity. The re-celebration of Ikam in the year 2018 is ethnographically discussed in the article in terms of changes in the spatial perceptions and attitudes with reference to Christianity and modernity’s effects on Ikam and the larger Bujuur identity. The objective is to assess the nature of cultural rejuvenations through an insider’s participatory path to present a critique on the dynamics and issues with cultural rejuvenations, perceived modernity and contemporal chauvinism. The article is premised within the Bujuur universe so that the dilemmas, observations and presentations are reflective of the narrations from within.

让我与Shabaken合影:Bujuur Naga中Ikam的反思
功勋盛宴是布朱尔传统社会文化生活不可或缺的一部分。Ikam就是这样一场盛宴。尽管具有传统意义,但伊卡姆的庆祝活动以布尤尔人皈依基督教而突然结束。参考基督教和现代性对Ikam的影响,文章在空间感知和态度的变化方面讨论了 2018 年Ikam的重新庆祝以及更大的布朱尔身份。目标是通过内部人士的参与路径来评估文化复兴的性质,以对文化复兴、感知现代性和当代沙文主义的动态和问题提出批评。这篇文章以布朱尔宇宙为前提,因此困境、观察和陈述反映了内部的叙述。
