Abstract

The naming of a region (toponymy) is not merely a geographical label, but rather a linguistic artifact that stores the collective memory and cultural identity of its people. This study aims to dissect the construction of the cultural identity of the South Minahasa community through the meaning of village names from an anthropolinguistic perspective. Using a descriptive qualitative method with an ethnosemantic approach, data were collected through historical document studies, field observations, and in-depth interviews with traditional leaders (Tona'as). The results of the study indicate that the toponymy in South Minahasa consists of 8 villages, namely: Menara city, Maliku and Maliku 1, Ritey, Malanos Baru, Lopana and Lopana 1, Pinalin, Pondang, and Ranomea. These 8 toponyms fall into four main categories: (1) flora and fauna aspects (bioglyphs), (2) geographical aspects (geoglyphs), (3) historical events, and (4) hopes or theological values. The identity construction found represents the deep attachment of the Tou Minahasa community to nature (cosmology) and the spirit of ancestral heroism. The implications of this research emphasize that preserving toponymic meaning is a crucial strategy for maintaining the vitality of local culture amidst the tide of modernization.

Abstract

This study aims to identify the diversity of mangrove species in the Mangrove Ecotourism area of Sarawet Village, Likupang, North Minahasa Regency, using a molecular taxonomy approach based on DNA barcoding and an ecological approach through vegetation analysis. Vegetation data collection was conducted descriptively and qualitatively using transect and plot methods. Molecular analysis included DNA extraction from mangrove leaf samples, amplification of the matK and rbcL genes using Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), followed by sequencing and nucleotide base comparison using the Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST). The morphological vegetation analysis found six mangrove species at the research site, namely Rhizophora mucronata, Rhizophora apiculata, Bruguiera sp., Sonneratia alba, Aegiceras corniculatum, and Ceriops tagal. Meanwhile, the molecular identification results of DNA barcoding showed that the matK gene sequence in the SRA sample had a 99.98% similarity with Sonneratia alba, and the rbcL gene sequence in the SRC sample had a 100% similarity with Aegiceras corniculatum. The combination of molecular identification and vegetation analysis provides accurate data on mangrove species composition, which is highly essential as a foundation for monitoring, sustainable management, and conservation of the mangrove ecotourism area as a buffer zone.
