摘要

The cross-religious (Muslim-Hindu communities) in the South Sulawesi, Indonesia, has various local traditions manifested by kinship ties. Kinship values become a model for an identity to build harmonious relationships. This study focusing on how ritual communication as a tradition shapes the cross-religious identity of the Bugis Tolotang Benteng (Muslim community) and Towani Tolotang (Hindu community) in Amparita in Sidenreng Rappang. The study qualitatively explores the experiences of the ritual communication procession through several informal conversational interviews using the perspectives of the ritual process and phenomenology. The authors find that the Bugis Tolotang community constructs a cross-religious identity through ritual communication processes and is considered to embody identity meanings such as mappatabe, sipakatau, sipakainge, sipakalebbi, and pappaseng, which are derived from the subjective interpretive communication processes of mappatettong bola, tudang sipulung, assitulungeng, mappabotting, and sipulung. These findings contribute to strengthening diverse religious identities and demonstrate how local traditions facilitate the realization of a harmonious cross-religious identity within the community. The study suggests that strengthening identity fosters a sense of belonging among the Bugis Tolotang Amparita community. Furthermore, this tradition can adapt and maintain identity in the face of technological advancements and societal changes, thereby continuing to serve as a foundation for kinship and cross-religious harmony.
