Kiryas Traditional House (Rumah Adat Kiryas)
Kabir, Pantar Barat, Alor, Nusa Tenggara Timur, Indonesia

Oral History Interview with Jeremias Waang
Date of Interview : 10/25/2023

The Rumah Adat Kiryas is an ancestral hall built in traditional style to house the lineage’s collection of sacred heirlooms (pusaka). The objects in the collection have been held by the lineage since at least the 18th century, but their location has shifted since then to its present location. The original location of the Rumah Adat Kiryas and its collection was in Eastern Pantar, in a village named Lebang Boli. Some of that village’s residents relocated here in 1901, bringing their pusaka with them. The collection includes several mokos and gongs, along with short and long tanbur drums. The mokos and gongs in particular are used as wedding dowry and mediums of exchange. The dowry used to be 25 mokos so only the wealthy could afford it, but nowadays a mere two of them is considered acceptable.

The current Rumah Adat Kiryas has three rooms: one containing the collection of moko and gongs, which also has a fire box for cooking, one room for sleeping, and another used for gatherings on occasions for ritual meals. In the yard outside the Rumah Adat Kiryas is an open air ritual platform (mesbah).
