Based on the results of the study it was found that 1) the Meron tradition procession in Sukolilo Village, Sukolilo District, Pati Regency was carried out in stages starting from the preparation stage, the procession implementation and post procession. In the preparatory stage consisting of forming committees, determining the time, events, and preparing various needs to be used in the Meron celebration ceremony, the implementation stage of the procession consists of the preliminary ceremony, Meron's departure and ends with a prayer together while the post-procession stage is carried out by parading again go to their respective homes. 2) The ethnomathematics obtained in this study are basic mathematical measurement concepts such as counting, measuring, and identifying.
