This uniqueness is not only seen from the existence of myths that have developed in the community, but also from various traditions that reflect elements of local culture that are still influenced by animism and dynamism. The sacred values and specialness inherent in Asta Totale make it a religious tourism destination that has spiritual significance for the community. Therefore, Asta Totale is known as one of the locations considered sacred and holds an important position in the social life of the local community. This condition prompted the research on "Asta Totale as a Social Construction of the Lapa Laok Village Community, Sumenep Regency." This research is a field study that focuses on how the Lapa Laok Village community forms their understanding and social views regarding the existence of Asta Totale. The purpose of this study is to describe how the social construction of society and the influence of Asta Totale traditions. The method used is qualitative research with a sociological approach that refers to Peter L. Berger's social construction theory. This approach is used to understand various social phenomena related to traditions, myths, and beliefs regarding the sacredness of Asta Totale. The researcher believes that the social reality that develops in society does not arise from a single factor, but rather is the result of the interaction of various social elements that influence each other. According to the researchers' observations, the sacredness of Asta Totale in Lapa Laok Village is shaped by several main factors. First, the tradition of pilgrimage that has been carried out for generations gives the practice social legitimacy and is deeply embedded in community life. Second, Asta Totale holds significant meaning for the community, especially the pilgrims, because it is believed to be connected to supernatural powers that are part of their belief system. This belief then positions Asta Totale as a symbol that is considered sacred. Third, the existence of myths that are continuously passed down from generation to generation also strengthens the existence of this tradition. The community believes that myths play a role in maintaining and legitimizing the various practices that develop around Asta Totale. In the process of social institutionalization, the function of myths is not limited to maintaining traditions but also shapes various societal perceptions and beliefs. Myths contribute to building an understanding of the relationship between humans and the environment, interactions between religious communities, and the social diversity that exists within society. This demonstrates that Asta Totale holds a significant position in social life, both for the people of Lapa Laok Village and for pilgrims who come from various regions. date: 2026-06-05 type: Thesis type: NonPeerReviewed format: text language: id identifier: https://digilib.uin-suka.ac.id/id/eprint/77012/1/19105040054_BAB-I_IV-atau-V_DAFTAR-PUSTAKA.pdf format: text language: id identifier: https://digilib.uin-suka.ac.id/id/eprint/77012/2/19105040054_BAB-II_sampai_SEBELUM-BAB-TERAKHIR.pdf identifier: Afifur Rohman, NIM.: 19105040054 (2026) ASTA TOTALE SEBAGAI KONSTRUKSI SOSIAL MASYARAKAT DESA LAPA LAOK KABUPATEN SUMENEP.
