Abstract
Tenarere as a cultural art tradition of the ethnic group in Adonara area (East Nusa Tenggara) belongs to a ritual dance. The performance of this art form is used as an annual celebration for recalling the historical journey of their great achestors from their former land (Moluccus islands) to their present home island (Adonara). In order to explicate the underlying meaning of the dance, the study is done through the viewpoint of the three aspects of cultural paradigm (form-function-meaning). It is found that this cultural art tradition has a multi-dimentional function – ritually, historically, aesthetically, and socially. One of its social functions is to strengthen the brotherhood unity of the the knirek and ata gooken who have been living spreadingly all over the Adonara island.
