| Description: | This is one of several zapal stories about Suri Guloq, also known as Suri Kereq and (in Tetun) Suri Ikun. In this story, Suri Guloq teaches the people of the heavens how to use fire and cook food. This event is seen to be the etiology of the Bunaq's distinctive deu hoto 'fire houses', that is their tradition house with an internal hearth. | |
| Bunaq "zapal" is an endangered form of fairy tale-like folk story traditionally told in the family group at night before going to sleep. With the arrival of electricity and television in Bunaq villages, the traditional night time forum for telling "zapal" has been lost. As a result, children know little or nothing of this aspect of Bunaq culture; only elderly community members and some adults know individual tales from the vast canon of "zapal" that the Bunaq once had. The "zapal" encapsulate and elucidate aspects of the Bunaq world view and their environment. The documentation of "zapal" therefores provide an unique perspective on the traditional livelihoods and beliefs of the Bunaq for researchers. | ||
