Abstract: The place attachment phenomenon, which was marked by the post-disaster in Palu City, Central Sulawesi, Indonesia, in 2018, affected the Kaili Ledo community, located in the Petobo area.Even though the government prohibited the former liquefaction land from being inhabited, it is necessary to know that some lives and properties were lost due to the disaster.Therefore, this research aimed to determine the behavior of activities, space and time in the Kaili Ledo community, Central Sulawesi, Indonesia.Data collected through the historical tracing of this community using the Grounded Theory method showed that the Kaili Ledo community originated in the Palu Valley Mountains in the Raranggonau settlement, Central Sulawesi.The result also showed that a space, namely, Tambale, was used as an element of housing in the Kaili Ledo community.The space was interpreted as a terrace, front porch, yard, and living room used for sacred and profane activities.Tambale is also associated with a place of longing because it makes humans have a psychological feeling of comfort with relatives and friends in their daily life.
