| dc.description.abstract | The local wisdom of partangiangan pambibitan is performed by the Tapian Nauli community to ask God for blessings and ask for protection from pangisi ni huta (village fillers) so as not to contradict habonaran ni luat (existing truth). Various conflicts that occurred in the Tapian Nauli community caused the ritual to be buried and not carried out for almost 25 years and caused "sleeping land". However, when the community returned and began to clear the land again, finally this ritual began to be carried out and preserved until now which is packaged with several updates.
This research uses a qualitative approach with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews with 12 informants consisting of 3 categories, namely local people with knowledge of partangiangan pambibitan, religious leaders, and natua-tuani huta (village elders). In addition, the author also conducted observations and live-ins to observe the daily lives of the Tapian Nauli community. This research is located in Tapian Nauli Hamlet, Juhar Village, Bandar Khalipah District, Serdang Bedagai Regency, North Sumatra. The data obtained were then processed using thematic analysis with manual coding techniques.
There are 4 main themes obtained. Partangiangan Pambibitan is a prayer activity carried out by the Tapian Nauli community for the seedling banquet.

Where the first session is a service and an itak meal led by a priest using procedures carried out from generation to generation, then the second session is carried out for discussion of descending seedlings and siallang na tupa.
