Jingi Tiu


Meanwhile, other islands include Sawu Island. This island was inhabited by immigrants who then also inhabited Raijua Island. As in many other areas in Indonesia, on this island betel is very popular, as is palm wine made from palm oil, and the sap is drunk directly from the tree.

The people of this island, now known as the Sabu tribe, are also known to attach great importance to their genealogy & names are chosen to avoid repeating names in genealogies which are read during ritual performances such as at funerals, where the relationship of the deceased to their ancestors is remembered. Memorization of genealogies has also been observed in neighboring cultures, in Rote & Kedang. Jingtiu is the name given by Portuguese missionaries during the evangelization in 1625 to the beliefs of this tribe.

Quoted by SeputarTangsel.Com from Flores Terkini, initially the mone ama / religious leaders did not understand the literal meaning of genios which they said was jingtiu. Jingi Tiu is a polytheistic religion, with Gods of Earth, Sea & Sky, as well as many other lesser spirits. They believe that Uli Rae is guarding the right side of the village's east gate while Maki Rae is guarding the left side of the village's east gate.

The dabba ana ceremony is like the floor washing ceremony in Daik Lingga, Riau Islands province but with different procedures and meanings. The tali manu dabba ceremony is traditional in the form of cockfighting which is held for 2 days in a traditional calendar year in an arena called dara nada. In response to the importance of human rights due to the extinction of the next generation, if inter-tribal warfare continues, the ancestors changed war between humans to war between animals, namely chickens.

The traditional pemau do made ceremony is held for 3 consecutive days. The bui ihi hole prayer ceremony involves bringing betel nuts to the ancestral graves to honor the spirits of the ancestors. According to Seba's theory, there is a time division of 1 year with 12 months, each month there is a permanent work almanac which is pioneered & carried out by Mone Ama.

The month of Daba Akki falls in February - March. The Banga Liu month falls in April - May. The month of Ari falls in June - July.

The Jingi Tiu believer is Riwu Ga, who at that time made the announcement while waving the red and white flag around the city of Jakarta in a Jeep driven by Sarwoko. Riwu Ga was raised by Soekarno's family during his marriage to Inggit Garnasih in 1934 at the age of 18 when he was detained in Ende & finally released by his family with the traditional Jingi Tiu ceremony. Another independence figure is Julian Hendrik / known as Ludji He by the local community who was appointed as a pioneer of independence by the Minister of Social Affairs Sapardjo in 1980 during the Soeharto government.

Indonesia is a large country with an area of ​​5,193,250 km2 consisting of many islands, including Sumatra, Java, Kalimantan, Maluku & many more. Batak is a tribal group that inhabits most of North Sumatra. Batak Toba is one of the Batak ethnic groups originating from this province. Batak Toba does not have to live in the Toba geographical area, even though their origins are Toba. For example, the majority of the indigenous population of Silindung are the Hutabarat, Panggabean, Simorangkir, Hutagalung, Hutapea & Lumbantobing clans. Likewise, the Nasution clan, which mostly lives in the Padangsidimpuan area, is related to the Siahaan clan in Balige, of course these two clans are descended from the same ancestor. Ugamo Sipelebegu is the religion of this tribe before the arrival of Islam & Christianity to Batak land. The belief in the spirits of the dead which is also called Sipelebegu , means people who worship & give offerings to spirits. Pele is giving food/honoring, b

Pesisir's Animism

Image
Islam is thought to have entered through the east coast area, although there are assumptions from the west coast, especially in the Pariaman area, the Arcat and Inderagiri areas on the east coast have also become Minangkabau port areas & the Kampar River and Batang Kuantan have their origins in the Minangkabau inland area. The arrival of the Pesisir Tribe to Barus caused the ousting of Tamil traders who had traded in the city for hundreds of years before. The next wave was a group led by Sultan Ibrahimsyah who came from the South Coast. The Dutch East Indies government employed many of them to fill teaching and government positions. Pesisir / Pasisi means the area on the edge of the ocean. The name Pesisir Tribe for this group was never known until the 20th century. In the 2000 population census, the Pesisir people were classified as a separate ethnicity that was different from the Batak. In its development, the term Pesisir Tribe was used more to emphasize the political interests

Many studies have been carried out on the Minang tribe, both looking at the traditional arts, customs, and folklore that developed in Minangkabau. Like the Nias & Enggano tribes, the Mentawai tribe are supporters of the Proto-Malay culture who settled in the western archipelago. The new concrete road built this year may only be around 3 - 5 km long. It is not uncommon for a household to get fish, it will be processed into bamboo and can be heated for consumption over the next 10 days. They usually get other daily needs through trade relations with outsiders, especially from the city of Padang. Meanwhile, Sipora Island has gardens and rice fields managed by indigenous residents and people from other tribes who have transmigrant status. Furthermore, Pagai Island has more of a wood industry environment & service civilizations that work in the wood industry. Animism/belief in spirits has existed in several regions in Indonesia since time immemorial. Before getting to know Christian
