Abstract

This study aims to describe Mechanical Solidarity in the Antar Pakatan Tradition in Sambas Malay Ethnic Weddings in Singaraya Village, Semparuk District, Sambas Regency using a qualitative approach with a descriptive method, employing observation, interviews, and documentation for data collection. The findings indicate that collective activities play a crucial role in these weddings, where the local community actively participates in various event stages, such as venue preparation, cooking, arranging dishes, and serving guests, reflecting strong values of family bonds and mutual cooperation (gotong royong). The Antar Pakatan tradition showcases a strong collective awareness, with the community working harmoniously, prioritizing communal interests over individual ones, maintaining unity through cooperation, collective commitment, and a shared focus on the event's success and tradition"™s continuity. Furthermore, this tradition reduces individualism and fosters active participation, where a sense of togetherness and collective responsibility ensures that individuals prioritize community well-being over personal interests, strengthening unity and enhancing the quality of the tradition in uniting the community.

Abstract

Ar palm plants have benefits for the Banjar people, but their utilisation is not widely known in local wisdom-based ethnobotanical studies. This study aims to describe 6 aspects of ethnobotanical studies of sugar palm plants in Banyu Irang Village, Bati-bati District, Tanah Laut Regency, South Kalimantan. This research is a field research using snowball sampling method with data collection techniques of observation, semi-structured interview, and documentation. The results of botanical studies show that this plant is a palm tree with fibrous roots and erect trunks. Ethnopharmacologically, aren palm plants are used for traditional medicine, especially to aid digestion and detoxification. In ethnosocio-anthropological studies, aren palm plants are used in various traditional ceremonies and mystical beliefs, such as its fibre rope that is believed to ward off misfortune. In ethnoeconomic studies, aren palm plants can be made into various processed foods, such as brown sugar (gula habang), a drink called banyu lahang, and kolang-kaling. In ethnolinguistic studies, local people call this plant by the term Hanau, which has been passed down from generation to generation. Ethnoecological studies show that palm trees thrive in riverbank and swamp environments. This research is expected to contribute to the conservation of palm trees while maintaining the local wisdom of the people of Banyu Irang Village.

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to understand the implementation of the Batumbang Apam ritual in Malay ethnic weddings in Banjar Serasan Subdistrict, East Pontianak District, using a descriptive qualitative approach. The study involved three informants: one key informant and two supporting informants. The findings indicate that the Batumbang Apam ritual consists of three stages. The initial process includes preparing and cleaning coconut fronds and sugarcane stalks, preparing apam cakes and other complementary cakes, and arranging seven sheets of fabric for the bride and groom to sit on. The core process involves reciting the Yasin prayer and circling the coconut fronds seven times in succession. The final process consists of a collective prayer led by the ritual guide and communal dining with invited guests. The ritual serves several functions: socially, it strengthens family bonds through mutual assistance and togetherness; religiously, it reinforces faith in Allah, seeking His blessings for safety and smooth proceedings; and environmentally, it highlights the use of natural elements such as water, air, trees, and soil, with coconut fronds and sugarcane stalks symbolizing divine creation. Symbolically, the apam cake, with its sweetness, softness, and richness, represents the hope that these qualities will be present in the couple's married life, while the strong and resilient nature of coconut fronds symbolizes the wish for the couple to have endurance and longevity in their marriage.

Abstract

 The Nyolat traditional ceremony is a form of culture as a system that becomes a habitus in the Uud Danum Dayak community. This habitus has existed for a long time by the ancestors and until now it has become a culture that has always been maintained. Changing times are indeed recognized as a challenge to the existence of maintaining that ancestral tradition. However, this is not a reason to eliminate a culture that has been rooted since ancient times. Its uniqueness as one of the traditions becomes its own uniqueness as the local wisdom of the indigenous Dayak Uud Danum community. The philosophical meaning or symbol of the message that is about to be expressed becomes the fruit of the philosophical reflection of humans wanting to express their relationship with nature and Mohotalak (God). Also at this level, the Nyolat traditional ceremony, which is a symbol and uniqueness for the Uud Danum Dayak community, is an important part of seeing a deeper correlation to human death. This means that humans do not only reach death, but after humans die, they will experience a further pilgrimage to eternal Betang (Heaven) to unite with Mohotalak (God). On the same occasion, the expression in the form of representation of the Nyola traditional ceremony is a form of expression of love for the family, accompanying or praying for their deceased relatives so that they will receive forgiveness and be accepted in the presence of the Existing One of all that is.

Abstract

The original title of this book is "Ethnography: Step by Step (Fourth Edition)" written by David M. Fetterman, an experienced practitioner and professor of anthropology. David"™s work not only provides a detailed step-by-step guide to conduct ethnographic research but also offers insightful conceptual and theoretical discussions alongside contemporary issues. It is no wonder that the book may fill the lack of the Indonesian language (bahasa Indonesia) book on ethnographic research methods, hence I recommend this book to all Indonesian ethnographers and anthropologists who teach ethnographic research and writing.
