Urang Kanekes

Urang Kanekes
The term "Baduy" is a name given by outsiders to the community, originating from the Dutch researchers' designation which seems to equate them with the Arab group Badawi which is a nomadic society. Another possibility is due to the Baduy and Baduy rivers that exist in the northern part of the region. They themselves prefer to call themselves Kanekes urban or "Kanekes" according to the name of their territory, or designations referring to the name of their village like Urang Cibeo (Garna, 1993).
Based on Big Indonesian Dictionary, proper writing is "Badui" and not "Baduy".
