Abstract

Adding-dinging ritual is one of the many cultural products found in Selayar Islands. This ritual was found in one of the hamlets in the village of Bontolempangan, the Tenro hamlet. This ritual is held on every last Monday of the month of Muharram. Adding-dinging rituals as ancestral inheritance contain many values and messages that need to be more explored. One of the values found is the value of solidarity. The value of solidarity is basically a value that departs from the sphere of the family in the form of love and togetherness between family members. Outside of family life there is a broader life that is society. This value should then be carried over to a broader scope, but due to technological advances, information, and times this value began to become obscured.The process of addinging-dinging rituals clearly shows the thickness of the solidarity values held by the Tenro community. The value of solidarity is in the form of a sense of caring for the environment and others, maintaining a sense of brotherhood, and the existence of cohesiveness between citizens. This value is at once a heritage that can be accumulated into a local wisdom. So that the community is not only the Tenro community but Indonesia, in general has sensitivity to others and the environment.
