“…Allegedly since 50,000 years ago, humans have been enumerating. It is proven, based on archaeological evidence (Eves & Eves, 1964 (Maryati & Prahmana, 2018). Calculation activities are fundamental activities carried out by each individual in daily activities for a particular purpose, both in personal life and in the life of society, nation, and state.…”

This article discusses Cigugur indigenous communities' custom in carrying out calculation practices to determine the best time to start house construction activities. The realist ethnography approach was used in this study through exploratory research. The ethnomathematics design adopted four elements: generic questions, initial answers, critical constructs, and specific activities. Ethnomodelling was used to translate cultural mathematics ideas into academic mathematics through ethical, emic, and dialogical approaches. Based on ethnomathematics, the community practices the dimensions of necessary universal mathematical activities, such as counting, placing, and explaining. Based on ethnomodeling, mathematical ideas and practices carried out are relevant to the concepts of enumeration, integer operations, sets, relations, congruence, and modulo. The study results recommend the importance of ethnomodelling as a methodological approach to ethnomathematics to create and develop didactical situations, especially in developing a new lesson.

“…Based on the mental ideas and processes carried out, these activities may be categorized as scientific content but based on axiological aspects, unless It will still be debated. Activities such as these become collections of knowledge built up by humans over time and across generations who live and interact with their own historical, social, cultural and natural environments (D'Ambrosio, 1990) whether we realize it or not, that almost all human activities are carried out based on calculations based on the natural conditions in which they live (Maryati & Prahmana, 2018).…”

Mathematics cannot be separated from everyday life. The use of mathematical concepts in cultural activities can be studied through the ethnomathematics program. However, ethnomathematics research may not be able to provide noticeable results, especially in constructing mathematical modelling for pedagogical purposes. Ethnomodelling later became one of the concepts introduced as an approach in ethnomathematics research. Based on the cultural aspect, the ability to predict a good day in farming is included in the holistic concept of culture because it belongs to the knowledge system and belief system (religion) in the universal element of culture. The research was conducted using an ethnomethodological approach and a realist ethnographic design. Based on this, this research was conducted to describe the ability of the Cigugur indigenous people in Kuningan Regency to predict what days are considered good to start farming activities. Data were collected by using observation techniques, in-depth interviews, documentation, and field notes. Data analysis techniques are carried out in stages through content analysis, triangulation, and pattern search. Based on the study of ethnomathematics, research that is able to describe the mathematical ideas and practices of the indigenous Cigugur community can be classified into several fundamental mathematical dimensions including counting, finding, measuring, designing, and explaining. The use of the ethnomodelling approach in research can describe several mathematical concepts used by the concepts of numbers, sets, relations, congruence, modulo, and mathematical modelling.

“…Proven existence of mathematical concepts is contained in the building of temples and inscriptions, local units of the Sidoarjo community, traditional earthenware geometric shapes, batik cloth motifs and embroidery (Rahmawati, 2016). Learning math based on culture can become a solution to introduce the culture and learning math (Maryati & Indra Prahmana, 2018). Further, The use of cultural artifacts to facilitate mathematics learning is a conscious and systematic effort in preserving culture and in broadening views of what counts as mathematical knowledge (Dominikus, Wara S;Nusantara, Toto;Subanji;Muksar, 2017).…”

Creative thinking is one of the important competencies to answer the challenges of the 21st century. The purpose of this study is to improve the ability to think creatively through learning mathematics based on culture (ethnomathematics). The research method used is action research. Learning is carried out using student worksheets that explore Surakarta batik. The subject of the research was Vocational High School students by taking the subject matter of Transformation Geometry. The results of the study showed that students' creativity could be increased through culture-based learning with a significant increase of 17, 91%. The new thing from this research is that learning is done using ethnomathematics student worksheets using a scientific learning approach that involves observing, questioning, experiencing, gathering information, associating, and communicating, creating.
