Abstract

Pada masa proto sejarah, kondisi topografi kurang memungkinkan terjalinnya distribusi tembikar secara kontinyu dan dalam jumlah besar ke dataran tinggi Toraja. Kondisi tersebut direspon orang Toraja dengan mengembangkan kandeang dulang. Hipotesis ini didukung oleh alasan topografis, arkeologis, etnografis, vegetasi dan tipologis. Kandeang dulang yang terdiri dari 3 tipe dengan 9 variasi tipe, memiliki peranan penting bagi orang Toraja. Aspek fungsinya tidak sebatas sebagai wadah makanan semata tetapi lebih dari itu, terintegrasi ke dalam sistem penguburan, identitas budaya, stratifikasi sosial, dan estetika.During the proto history, topography condition was not allows intertwining of pottery distribution continuously and in large numbers to the Toraja highlands. This condition was responded by Toraja society by developing kandeang dulang. This hypothesis was supported by topographical, archaeological, ethnographic, vegetation and typological. Kandeang dulang consisting of three types with 9 variations of type, have an important role for the Toraja society. Aspects of the function is not limited merely as food containers but more than that, is integrated into the system of burial, cultural identity, social stratification, and aesthetics.
