Abstract

This study aims to obtain information about the local wisdom of the Banjar Tribe for daily water consumption. This study uses qualitative methods. The findings of this study indicate that only a few local communities in the Banjar tribe in the Upper Kalimantan River use Tajau filtered water for daily consumption. On the other hand, people actually still believe that consuming filtered water with Tajau stones without boiling first does not cause disease. These results are proven by the results of testing the chemical-physical parameters of the water from the stone filter Tajau which shows that the water is suitable for consumption. The local wisdom of the Banjar people in Hulu Sungai South Kalimantan in using filtered water Tajau for consumption is proven to meet the drinking water quality requirements. Thus, the local wisdom of using the stone Tajau holds an interesting potential for further research to find out the effect of the types of rock used so that it can guarantee the quality of filtered water.
