CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
A. The Background of the Study
Every region has a culture and the culture of each region is different. There is a figurative meaning “Lain ladang lain belalang, lain lubuk lain ikannya”. It means that every region has different culture. The culture of region is created by society who lives in the region. They created the culture with thought, power, feeling, and labor. Although every society has different culture motive but there is universal between them. The culture comes from the human. It decided human’s attitude. It was inherited by one generation into other generation.
There are three aspects which distinguish between one culture and another culture. There are culture, society ecology and the individual. Culture consists of dominant values, habit of thought and assumption, its verifiable knowledge, art forms, language, paralanguage, and kinesics. Society consists of social institution and the regulation of interpersonal and group relation: family, religion, economic, occupational organization, political and judicial system, education, intellectual aesthetic and recreational institution, communications, social norms, social stratifications conflict and resolution of conflicts. Ecology consists of the population’s relationship with its sub human environment attitude towards nature exploitation of nature, use of natural products, technology, settlements and territorial organization, travel and transportation.
Two interrelated anthropological concepts, society and culture, are crucial to understanding what makes humans unique. In its general sense, a society consists of any group of interacting animals, such as a herd of bison. But human societies often include millions or billions of people who share a common culture. Culture refers to the ways of life learned and shared by people in social groups. Culture differs from the simpler, inborn types of thinking and behavior that govern the lives of many animals. The people in a human society generally share common cultural patterns, so anthropologists may refer to particular societies as cultures, making the two terms somewhat interchangeable.
According to John H. Bodley, culture is fundamentally tied to people’s ability to use language and other symbolic forms of representation, such as art, to create and communicate complex thoughts. Thus, many anthropologists study people’s languages and other forms of communication. Symbolic representation allows people to pass a great amount of knowledge from generation to generation. People use symbols to give meaning to everything around them, every thought, and every kind of human interaction.
People have shared beliefs and values in the face of other, often contradictory, beliefs and values held by people of other cultural backgrounds. From this view, people continually create and debate with each other about the meaning of all aspects of culture, such as words, rituals, and concepts.
People living together in a society share culture. For example, almost all people living in the
