Sidamalung are animals that have very important virtues, both spiritually and socio-economically, for the Balinese Hindu community. Pigs are animals that are almost always present in various traditional and religious ceremonies, such as odalan, ngaben, and usaba. Pork, especially in the form of roast pig, is considered a worthy offering to the gods and ancestors. This offering is a symbol of sacrifice and gratitude to God. In this context, pigs are not just livestock, but a spiritual medium that connects humans with nature and the illusory world. Pigs are also a source of livelihood for many Balinese families. Pork-based dishes such as lawar, komoh, and roast pig have become icons of Balinese cuisine. This strengthens cultural identity and becomes a unique culinary tourism attraction. |
