Among them is the Parsadaan Naiambaton (Parna) clan group, this Batak clan group is known to still uphold the oath of their ancestors not to engage in blood marriages. But the author still finds people who violate this oath, this is the reason why this thesis is important so that the current generation understands and appreciates the meaning of Bhinneka Tunggal Ika, then Parna descendants understand and implement Tona Ni Raja Nai Ambaton and every young generation who are descendants of Raja Nai Ambaton knows even though Many of the clans belonging to Parna from various Batak tribes are brothers. Where the purpose of writing this title is to describe marriages between the Parna clan in Simalungun Regency and how the community and Pomparan ni Raja Nai Ambaton perceive marriages between the Parna clan. The method used in this research is qualitative research and the data used in writing this thesis was obtained from in-depth observations and interviews. From the research results, this has happened in several areas in Simalungun Regency, but this is strongly opposed by the community, especially Pomparan ni Raja Nai Ambaton, because this is contrary to the philosophy of the Atak Dalihan na Tolu and Tona ni Raja Nai Ambaton which states that fellow Parna clans are naso boi marsiolian/marhajabuan Where the marriage between Parna will destroy the kinship system among the Parna clan, which will result in them not having rights in customs and being excluded from the Parna community, so it is really necessary for the younger generation with young surnames to understand what clans are included in the Parna.
