<![CDATA[The purpose of this study was to describe the meaning of the balla lompoa symbol Galesong in the Makassar tribe while still looking at the geographic context behind the shape of the balla lompoa house. This type of research is qualitative descriptive using an ethnographic approach with a perspective of symbolic interaction. The results of this study indicate that the symbols on balla lompoa have a meaning that is guided by the philosophy of the Makassar tribe, namely sulapa appaka (square). The form of balla lompoa Galesong Makassar tribe is also motivated by the location of the Galesong region which is the coastal area of the Makassar Strait. The meaning and value of the balla lompoa is very relevant to be used as a source of material in the Culture Geography Course, Department of Geography, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Makassar State University.]]>
