The Ritual of Boat Incineration on the Island of Vis, Croatia: an Interpretation
Joško Božanić,Eni Buljubašić 국립민속박물관 2012 International Journal of Intangible Heritage Vol.7 No.-
In the fishing village of Komiža, on the island of Vis,Croatia, there is a centuries-long ritual of incineratingtraditional wooden fishing boats which is linked to thecelebration of a Catholic holiday. Boats are not recognisedas a part of the cultural heritage of Croatia and traditionalboats are not being produced any longer because they arenot seen to have any market value. Therefore, thecontinuation of the burning ritual is seriously threatened. It is argued here that through a re-contextualisation of theceremony within an eco-museum and through similarprojects, the boats could actively contribute to theeconomic life of the community. This issue is addressedfrom the standpoints of the endangered ritual and thecultural significance of the boat. While predominantlyinvestigating its sociological importance and theunderlying semiotic implications of the ritual, anddiscussing the anthropomorphic conceptualisation of theboat within the Komižan community, this article alsoexplores the origins of the burning ritual and similarpractices around the world. The article aims to increasethe recognition of the boat as an object of tangible andintangible heritage, namely as a product of the traditionalmaritime art of ship-building.
