Abstract: Development in various sectors of life will certainly have a major impact on society, both positive and negative. One of the negative impacts of modern development is the erosion of the values of the local wisdom of the community, including the values of local wisdom of Sahu people contained in their traditional house called Sasadu. The purpose of this research was to find out the philosophical values contained in Sasadu traditional houses and write them as part of the preservation of the values of community wisdom which would later be useful as a development filter. The method used was a combined method between library research supported by field research. The results found in this research were that the Sasadu traditional house in Sahu tribe community has a long history and traditional architecture which includes (1) social authority values; (2) legal values and social ethics; and (3) a belief system that is still practiced until now. Based on the results of this research, it can be stated that as a tribal community that still holds strong the local traditions of their ancestors (seen from the whole village that still has Sasadu traditional houses), Sahu tribe must prepare themselves by renewing their traditional pattern of view and being open to change without abandoning their religious social values, so as to anticipate the swift flow of modern development.
