Abstract

Sea Storm or tidal waves are one of the natural disasters that impose risks to human life. One of those potentially threatened by sea storms is fishermen who are fishing. Mitigation of sea storms is not only carried out on land but also at sea. Local wisdom has been used as an effort to mitigate disaster. This study aims to find the concept of space-based on a community’s local wisdom in disaster mitigation. Kaili tribe is one of the ethnic groups living in Sulawesi, especially in Central Sulawesi province. The proposed concept of space is “Tampa Nu Bau” concept, which in the Kaili language means a space located at sea and serves as a transit space for fishermen when fishing. The method used in this research is phenomenology. This method is done by observing the behavior of fishermen, behavior mapping, ethnic wisdom behavior and superimposition which are often shown by fishermen when using the “Tampa Nu Bau” room. The results obtained in this study are the concept of space-based on local wisdom that can reduce the risk of storm disasters in the Sea.

Highlights

  • Tidal waves or sea storms are water rise up and lower down movements of the sea to form valleys and hills following the wave motion

  • This study aims to find the concept of space based on the local wisdom of the Kaili people regarding disaster mitigation

  • The Tampa nu Bau area is a gathering place for fishermen in the sea and when there is a big wave that will endanger the fishermen at sea, a temporary refuge place is needed while waiting for the storm to subside

Summary

Introduction

Tidal waves or sea storms are water rise up and lower down movements of the sea to form valleys and hills following the wave motion. There are two types of sea waves. First are short period sea waves that are usually generated by the wind blowing on the sea surface. This is caused by strong winds, solar gravity and the distance of the moon to the earth, or earthquakes. Several natural processes occur at the same time to influence the long period of sea-level variation
