Despite the complex rituals that establish the connections between the peoples of the highlands, there were differences in dialects, differences in the social hierarchy and a set of ritual practices in the highlands of Sulawesi. "Toraja" (the languages of the coast, which means village, and RIAJ, Highlands) was used as an expression of the plains of the interior.As a result, "Toraja" initially was more foreign than the Bugis and Makassarese representing most of the plains of insider Sulawesi. The presence of Dutch missionaries in the highlands has led to ethnic consciousness in the region Toraja Toraja Sa'd, and this common identity has grown with the advent of tourism in Tana Toraja Regency. Since then, South Sulawesi has four main ethnic groups in Bugis (most among shipyards and sailors), the Makassarese (lowland traders and seafarers), the Mandarese (traders and fishermen) and Toraja (producers of rice mountain) .
