Abstract

This study examines the uniqueness of the history and meaning of traditional houses in Moramam Village, Alor Barat Daya District, Alor Regency. The research method used is a qualitative method with an ethnographic approach, involving direct observation, in-depth interviews with traditional elders, and related literature studies. The results showed that the traditional house in Moramam Village has a distinctive architecture that reflects the cultural identity of the Alor community. The structure of the building, which consists of strong wooden pillars, symbolises the resilience of the community, while the conical roof reflects the harmonious relationship between humans, nature and ancestors. In addition, the traditional house also functions as a place for traditional ceremonies and community deliberations. Thus, the traditional house in Moramam Village is not just a place to live, but also a centre of social and cultural life that has been passed down from generation to generation. This research is expected to be a reference in the effort to preserve traditional houses as part of the national cultural wealth. In addition, this research also reveals various challenges in the preservation of traditional houses, including changes in people's lifestyles, the influence of modernisation, and lack of attention from related parties. Therefore, collaborative efforts between the community, government, and academics are needed to maintain the sustainability of traditional houses as a local cultural identity.

Abstract

Otvai Village is one of the villages in Northwest Alor District which is known as the largest clove producer in Alor Regency, with a land area of 198 hectares and a fairly high production every harvest season. The abundant potential of cloves makes Otvai Village have a great opportunity to develop the agro-tourism sector as a form of economic diversification based on local resources. This research aims to analyze the potential of cloves as a leading commodity, identify opportunities for agrotourism development, and review the supporting and inhibiting factors that affect its implementation. The research method used is qualitative descriptive by examining data on the potential of natural, social, economic, and village infrastructure. The results of the analysis show that Otvai Village has the main strength in clove production, a natural landscape that supports plantation tourism, and the existence of local cultural elements to support tourism activities. However, several obstacles such as damage to road infrastructure, low tourism support facilities, and lack of promotion are the main challenges in agrotourism development. This study recommends strengthening tourism village governance, improving infrastructure, and diversifying processed clove products as a community-based agro-tourism development strategy.
