Spatial Changes In The Rantau Ulayat Area Case Study Tarok Nagari Kepala Hilalang

Abstract

The spatial changes of a traditional area, especially at Tarok Nagari, Kepala Hilalang, Padang Pariaman Regency, West Sumatra, which is called rantau, found problems related to differences in the definition of the area, boundaries, location settings, and development of patterns that were formed far from the control of the Mamak Pusako (the head of a tribe) to collective inheritance. With the changes in spatial planning that occur, it is necessary to study spatial changes to optimize the potential for spatial planning, especially in traditional areas that are hereditary. The method used is a normative approach to customary inheritance through qualitative and quantitative analysis for mapping inheritance patterns with behavior-mapping techniques. Strengthening data from informants regarding the description of regional development is carried out with the support of Design Guidance Structure theory, land use triangle theory, regulations, and related literature. Space syntax theory is used to analyze patterns that occur before the study is carried out. Temporal data based on the period before and after the land inheritance process were obtained through interviews with indigenous peoples' leaders and resource persons as well as literature studies on related Tanah Adat. The research results on inheritance land spatial planning based on the customary law approach (ulayat) provide ambiguity in the spatial and setting arrangements. Meanwhile, the Space Syntax theoretical approach shows the existence of a network from the development of functions and the potential for access. Where Mamak Pusako cannot see this process, it raises the issue of lack of spatial control and development.
