The Cultural Heritage of Ume Kbubu: Strengthening Atoin Meto Identity Through School Learning
Abstract
The focus of this research is to explore more deeply the values contained in Ume Kbubu as a cultural heritage that can be applied to school learning. The method used in this research is a qualitative method with an ethnographic approach to describe the values contained in the Ume Kbubu house. Data collection was carried out by conducting a literature study to find sources related to the history of Ume Kbubu; direct observation at the location; and interviews with residents and Atoin Meto leaders to obtain information on the values of the Ume Kbubu heritage to implement in learning. The analysis of information or data is done by reducing data, presenting data, drawing conclusions, or verifying. The results of this study indicate that cultural values contained in Ume Kbubu as an Atoin Meto identity can be applied in schools as part of character cultivation in students.
