Abstract

This study aims to investigate the social, economic and cultural perspectives in Funeral Ceremony Rambu Solo’ in Toraja Utara Regency. This study was a descriptive research and the informant of this study was the society of Toraja Utara Regency. The techniques of the data collection conducted were observation, interview and documentation. The result of the research showed that the process of Rambu Solo’ ceremony made the kinship relationship stronger, because during the ceremony the distant family will come. It was caused by the certain belief in behaviour and attitude of Torajan society. The social status of family was determined by how rousing the ceremony and how many animals were sacrificed. This was caused by the habit pattern of Torajan society and thus that habit turned to become an interest and motivation to conduct the ceremony. This ceremony also became the motivation of Torajan society in collecting money until most of the Torajanese wandered and had enough money in carrying out the Rambu Solo’ ceremony. This can be seen from the interview result of researcher with informant.
