Bolano's Animism


The tribes in the archipelago have different customs, traditions & cultures. The Kaili - Tomini - Totoli group has a language that is slightly different from the Kaili & Ledo group, different because of the mixture of sub-tribes. The Kaili - Tomini - Totoli group itself has a sub-tribe, namely the Bolano tribe. Wayang art is an original art originating from Indonesia with various noble values ​​contained in it & is a valuable heritage from our ancestors.

Wayang kulit is one of the Javanese performing arts that still exists on the island of Java. The reason for the transmigrant community in Kotanagaya village not to preserve wayang kulit art, among others, is because they no longer love their traditional arts & do not uphold the noble values ​​contained in it.
