Abstract

This research examines the Salo Taduppa ritual tradition as local wisdom that contains peace values and the communication process can build a culture of community cooperation between the people in Karama Village. This tradition is carried out for traditional medicine, thanks giving, and asking for a mate. In this study, the theory of symbolic interactionism was used to examine the meaning of each ritual tool and offers. Data collection was carried out employing observation and in-depth interviews which were then analyzed explicitly. The results showed: that the Salo Taduppa ritual was able to make people work together to carry out the ritual, together to protect nature, and every offering and ritual tools had the meaning of peace and cooperation.
