Abstract

This study aims to understand the construction of meaning and cultural practices of the Sumbanese people through the legend of the origin of rice, using an ethnographic approach. Grounded in ethnographic theory, particularly Clifford Geertz’s view of culture as a system of interpreted meanings, this research explores how the people of Sumba interpret the origin of rice as part of their symbolic structure and life rituals. The methods employed include participant observation, in-depth interviews with traditional elders, and documentation of oral traditions related to the legend. The findings reveal that the legend of the origin of rice contains a comprehensive ethnographic structure encompassing the eight components acronymized as SPEAKING: S (Setting and Scene), P (Participants), E (Ends; purposes and goals), A (Act Sequences), K (Key; tone or spirit of the act), I (Instrumentalities), N (Norms of interaction and interpretation), and G (Genres). Through the ethnographic lens, this legend is understood as a cultural instrument that reflects collective identity and strengthens social cohesion within the community. It is hoped that this study contributes to the preservation of intangible cultural heritage and enriches the field of cultural literary studies.

Abstract

This research is based on the importance of understanding the role of women as symbols of fertility in the marriage proposal tradition of the Wewewa community in Southwest Sumba Regency. The marriage proposal tradition is not only understood as a process of uniting two families but also contains cultural, social, and ecological values that place women at the center of the sustainability of life. The purpose of this research is to describe the meaning of women as symbols of fertility in the marriage proposal tradition and to analyze it through ecofeminist studies. The method used in this research is qualitative, with data collection techniques including in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation of traditional leaders and the Wewewa community. The results indicate that women in the marriage proposal tradition are viewed as sources of life, successors to descendants, and guardians of harmonious relations between humans, nature, and culture. Ecofeminist studies demonstrate the link between respect for women and respect for nature in the lives of the Wewewa community. This research is expected to provide a reflection on maintaining local cultural values while strengthening respect for women and the environment.
