Abstract

The “Teater Tutur” in the Kenduri Sko Ritual represents a noble tradition of the Kumun Debai community, imbued with rich multicultural and sociocultural values. However, in the fast-paced digital era, the existence of Teater Tutur within the Kenduri Sko ritual faces threats from modernization and changing lifestyles. These conditions have led to a decline in the frequency of its use during the ritual, a shift in the methods of conveying messages, and changes in how the younger generation perceives and understands local cultural values. The urgency of this study lies in understanding how Teater Tutur adapts to sociocultural transformations in the digital era, as well as how the multicultural values it embodies can serve as social capital in fostering harmony within an increasingly heterogeneous society. The research aims to conduct an in-depth examination of the narratives of Teater Tutur in the Kenduri Sko Ritual in Kumun Debai District as a means of preserving multicultural cultural heritage within the context of social transformation in the digital age. The study employs a qualitative research method using an ethnographic approach, specifically implementing digital ethnography as conceptualized by Sarah Pink which integrates field observation with the analysis of cultural activities in digital spaces.
