Nasroen was the first person to pioneer the study of ethnic philosophy in the 60s through his book Falsafah Minangkabau. The main sources of ethnic philosophy are mythology, legends, folklore, the way an ethnic group builds its houses & holds its ceremonies, the literature they produce, the epics they write, all of which underlie the building of the ethnic philosophy. Talking about human philosophy in the context of the Archipelago also means talking about the ethnic philosophy adopted by all members of a tribe. One of the famous Sundanese pantuns is lutung kasarung, the poem consists of 1000 lines & comes from the 15th century. The intention is to teach religious beliefs, history, mythology, manners etc. This is in accordance with what is stated in the MPR decree number 2 / MPR / 1983 which states that language must be fostered & developed and used properly and correctly.

Image
The coastal population is further divided into 2 parts, namely the Bisman tribe located between the Sinesty River and the Simai tribe on the Nin River.

Those who live in Agats are now also accustomed to getting drunk; they are more prone to going berserk, and their wives will also receive more violence. This habit is carried out because they live in a village near the Baliem River, so that the air temperature during the day feels warm & not as cold as in the morning.

Sentani's Animism

Image
First, the western group concentrated on Yonokom Island, then the eastern group concentrated on Asei Island, and finally, the central group concentrated on Ifar Island. Precisely between the villages of Atamali, Abar, Khameyaka & Babo during the day suddenly a land the size of a futsal field appeared in the middle of the lake and this became an attraction for the surrounding community but also made some residents who had never seen this directly shudder, because this made the lake water cloudy & the land had black soil. According to the philosophy of our ancestors, this is related to animist beliefs. The sudden appearance of land in the middle of Lake Sentani has a spirit/soul that gives a bad sign to the surrounding community. Our ancestors often called the sudden appearance of land in Lake Sentani avere in the Sentani language. According to their beliefs, the avere phenomenon cannot be predicted when it will appear, sometimes 20 years or more, according to their wishes. Altho...
