Abstract

In the context of the cultural ritual traditions of the Banda people, this abstract aims to investigate the transcendent meaning of feeding the sea. This research was conducted in Banda District, Regency, Central Maluku. A philosophical approach is the basis of the research methodology used in this paper. The research results show that the traditional ritual of feeding the sea in Banda is still carried out and has transcendental, religious, ethical, and mystical meaning. This shows the harmonious relationship between humans and the Creator, fellow humans, and the universe. Understanding symbols such as sacredness, togetherness, and the balance of nature (the sea) is used as part of the politics of community hope to ensure that the village community desires to avoid disasters and dangers, as well as the potential benefits of the sea for the lives of the Banda community. This study shows that the ritual of feeding the sea creates social, cultural, and economic identity and strengthens the spiritual connection and highest religious values of the Bandan community. Taking a deep understanding of the transcendental in the ritual of feeding the sea means following transcendence and becoming one's identity as a Bandanese people.

Abstract

This study aims to trace the historical roots of cultural openness in the Banda community, describe its concrete manifestations in social life, customs, architecture, and culinary practices, and analyze its continuity in the era of globalization. The research employs a descriptive qualitative approach with ethnographic-historical methods, involving literature review, participatory observation, and in-depth interviews with traditional leaders and community members. The findings reveal that the cultural openness of the Banda people was shaped through trade networks, intermarriage, religious missions, and colonialism, resulting in an inclusive cultural heritage. This openness is reflected in social tolerance, the integration of religious values into customary practices, the fusion of local and colonial architecture, and cuisine influenced by various nations. Amid the currents of globalization, despite facing the challenges of cultural homogenization, the Banda community continues to uphold the values of openness through social practices, traditions, and local cultural preservation. This study affirms that Banda’s cultural openness is not a passive attitude toward external influences, but rather a selective and reflective process that constitutes an essential identity for Indonesia’s multicultural society.
