Abstract

This study aims to identify and describe the cultural values contained in the Kon Anin legend and to explain the role of these values in the social life of the Tuapakas community, Kualin Sub-District, South Central Timor Regency. The Kon Anin legend is an oral tradition that is still preserved and is believed to contain cultural teachings and local wisdom that influence the community's social life. This research uses a descriptive qualitative method. Data were obtained through in-depth interviews with traditional elders and community leaders, participant observation, and documentation. The results show that the Kon Anin legend contains four important cultural values: (1) belief in ancestral traditions, (2) togetherness, (3) respect for traditional leaders, and (4) local wisdom. These values are practiced in the Kon Anin ritual as a response to strong wind disturbances believed to be an imbalance of nature. This ritual functions as a medium for cultural preservation, identity reinforcement, education for the younger generation, and maintaining the balance of human-nature relationships.
