Theological Study of The Meaning of Ma'katia in Aluk Rambu Solo' and Its Implications for The Buntao Classist Chain Congregation'

Abstract

This study examines the theological meaning of Ma’katya within the Aluk Rambu Solo’ ritual and its implications for the Rantekata Klasis Buntao Congregation. Ma’katya is a traditional mourning dance performed by women during the Rambu Solo’ funeral ceremony. It is characterized by the chanting of lamentative verses (singgi’) accompanied by expressive movements. The purpose of this research is to explore the extent to which members of the Rantekata congregation understand the meaning of Ma’katya. This study employs a qualitative research method, including literature review, field observation of Ma’katya performances during Rambu Solo’ ceremonies, and interviews with selected informants who have knowledge of the tradition, as well as members of the congregation. The findings reveal that many members of the Rantekata congregation do not fully understand the theological and cultural meaning of Ma’katya. For some, it is merely appreciated as a form of art without deeper comprehension. However, a portion of the congregation demonstrates an understanding influenced by the belief system of Aluk Todolo.
