Abstract

In the life of the Pekal community, Ketahun Subdistrict, North Bengkulu Regency, marriage is often found without going through the KUA (Office of Religious Affairs), in other words not recorded by the State. There are still many Ketahun people in North Bengkulu who do marriages through an intermediary of the Kaum (traditional headman). The purpose of this study was to determine the existence of the Pekal community in marriage. This study uses empirical legal research methods to see the working of law in society and the juridical-sociological approach. The results of research on the existence of people in marriage in the Pekal community are as leaders of traditional marriage ceremonies. The leader of the traditional wedding ceremony is interpreted through the form and symbol of traditional marriage, reflected by social values ​​that are needed in the formation and development of the Pekal community's identity. Likewise, the social value is interpreted, which is one of the things that is very closely related to the life activities of the Pekal community, which in general is a form and arises from every human being.
