Tradisi Lisan Male-Male: Nyayian Kematian dalam Masyarakat Ciacia: Kajian Sosiologis dan upaya Pewarisan. Male-Male merupakan syair yang dinyanyikan sesaat setelah seorang warga yang dianggap sosok sempurna meninggal dunia. Tradisi lisan ini menggambarkan penghargaan masyarakat terhadap sosok sempurna melalui ungkapan kesedihan, kerinduan, ketabahan, dan puji-pujian. Pelaksanaan Male-Male memiliki sejumlah fungsi, baik fungsi pribadi (penutur dan tuan rumah) maupun fungsi bagi masyarakat (warga yang melayat). Bagi penutur dan tuan rumah, tradisi ini berfungsi untuk menghibur, kepedulian sesama, penyebaran nilai-nilai sosial dan agama, prestise, dan mewariskan tradisi. Bagi masyarakat, Male-Male berfungsi sebagai sarana mengingatkan diri akan kematian, memperkokoh keimanan, dan meningkatkan empati, serta solidaritas sesama. Diperlukan upaya pewarisan dalam menjaga keberlanjutan tradisi ini. Pewamisan formal yakni melalui sekolah, sedangkan pewarisan informal melalui penguatan lembaga adat.
