Abstract

Community oral traditions in the management and utilization of fisheries resources in Maluku are diverse, yet much remains unexplored. This research aimed to examine the role of these oral traditions in managing and utilizing fisheries resources and to recommend strategies for preserving community culture. The research was conducted from July 2020 to February 2024 using a descriptive qualitative approach, along with a literature review. Primary data were collected through research instruments, including documentation and daily notes, while secondary data were gathered from relevant online media sources. The research revealed that community oral traditions in fisheries resource management are reflected in the sasi rules, which include various prohibitions on resource extraction that could harm the environment or lead to resource depletion. Oral traditions related to the use of fisheries resources include practices such as timba Laor, timba Puri, timba Sontong, and others. Traditional fishing tools are also part of these oral traditions, including mangail boats, traps, sero, and more. These traditions are expressed through songs, dances, and folk tales, although the number of such traditions is relatively small. To preserve and develop the oral traditions of the Maluku community, the following strategies are recommended: (1) incorporating oral traditions into the school curriculum in Maluku, (2) documenting oral traditions in audio, video, and text formats, (3) organizing festivals and cultural arts performances through community and studio initiatives to introduce these traditions, and (4) utilizing technology to disseminate information about oral traditions to the wider community.
