Abstract

This article was created based on the desire to reveal the cultural values of the para-para for the Dondai people in Papua. The Dondai people have a cultural tradition that seems different in Papua. However, no research has examined the meaning of para-para for Dondai people. The questions are: 1) What does the para-para look like in the Dondai village? 2) Does the para-para have cultural values in the Dondai village? It was completed using qualitative methods. The data was obtained through a literary study, observation, and interviews in the Waibu district. All data were analyzed qualitatively using deconstruction and functional theory. The Results: 1) para-para is the name of the Dondai people for the traditional house at Dondai village; 2) para-para has cultural significance because it has represented the identity of the Dondai people and has become an important meeting place to discuss the preservation of the Dondai culture in Papua. This article has implications for the promotion of Papuan traditional houses as well as for academics who want to improve their research on Papuan culture.
