Lamoa


Salu is usually used to name mountains, rivers, and other geographical toponyms, but none use it for the island to the south. The Hikayat La Galigo has become widely known to the international audience after being adapted into a theatrical performance I La Galigo by Robert Wilson, a director from the United States, which began to be performed internationally in 2004. This epic is probably older and was written before the Mahabharata epic from India.

Only part of Galigo has been translated into Indonesian and there is no complete version in English available. However, this epic still provides historians with an overview of Bugis culture before the 14th century. The formation of the Bone Kingdom was in 1330 which began with the arrival of Tomanurung Ri Matajang Matasilompoe who united 7 communities led by Matoa.

Manurung Ri Matajang married Manurung Ri Toro giving birth to La Ummasa Petta Panre Bessie as the second Arumpone. His sister married La Pattikkeng Arung Palakka who gave birth to La Saliyu Karampelua as the third Arumpone. The marriage of Batara Guru with We Nyili Timo is considered a symbol of the reunification of 2 large families from the To Riu tribe with the To Liu / Luwu / Luwu Kingdom tribe which originated from 1 ancestor To Pongko, who had long been separated & scattered due to the diaspora.

The Togian archipelago dialect is more similar to Pososcli than to Parigian, while so far we have only noticed minor differences with Pososch in Todjosch. The Sausu people speak Baree because of course their tribe is the Baree tribe, the word sausu comes from the Baree language which means 1 rib. Their area is in the Posso & Laa river valleys.

This small tribe used to have settlements mainly in the Pandjo & Saloe Kaia plains. This valley is not far from the area drained by Koro & its tributaries, closer to Kalaena. They are a small people, who were also destroyed by smallpox in 1908.

Far to the east of Tandjoeng Api there appear to be some Taa colonies on the coast. In the mountain districts in the NE interior. The Baree tribe still lives traditionally & is bound by the customs & culture of the Baree ancestors from the time of the To Pongko tribe who speak Baree, Tinja Pata Sulapa, Tojo Kingdom & the Baree tribe in 1951, until now.

Lematang's Animism

Image
For 24 years, Sriwijaya was the center of world civilization in the past. And they admit that their descendants are from Majapahit, even Kediri & Singosari. Apart from that, they also recognize the lineage of Sekandar Alam / Iskandar Alam in Siguntang Hill. This confession was also written in the Babad Tanah Djawi which said that the people of Batanghari Sembilan were very influenced by Majapahit stories, especially the legend of Ario Dama. The people in that area are still in a primitive state and adhere to the beliefs of animism and dynamism. In the traditions of the Lematang tribe, there are various types of items that are considered to have magical powers. For example, ceremonies for opening rice fields, believing in the spirits of ancestors, etc. The people around Gudang Buncit believe that the Antu Banyu Kingdom is near Gudang Boentcjit. To ask for his help, they take a holy bath followed by bathing at exactly 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, to cleanse their inner ...

Ranau's Animism

Image
Other tribes from South Sumatra include all tribes from South Sumatra such as the Ranau tribe. The Ranau tribe is an ancient tribe that is believed to be the ancestors of today's Lampung people. In the book History of the Lampung Region, it is stated that in the past the Ranau tribe still adhered to animist/dynamism beliefs before the arrival of Hinduism from mainland India in the 3rd century AD. Sekuraan is a masquerade party held at the beginning of the month of Shawwal / starting on Eid al-Fitr. As a society that still adheres to animist beliefs, at that time sekuraan was done to summon the spirits of ancestors during the harvest festival. In the 13th century, when several figures spreading Islam from Pagaruyung succeeded in subduing the Buay Tumi Kingdom, sekuraan developed into folk art. Several groups of people from the Ranau tribe did not want to accept Islam as their religion because some of them did not accept the teachings about human origins & claimed not to be desce...
