Abstract

This research aims to examine the values of local wisdom in the settlement patterns and buildings in Kampung Naga, as well as the application of ethnomathematics in mathematics education in schools. The research method used is qualitative descriptive with observation and in-depth interview techniques with key informants from the Kampung Naga community. The results show that the settlement pattern in Kampung Naga follows the flow of the river. This settlement pattern is a form of adaptation to the natural environment. Meanwhile, the buildings in Kampung Naga are constructed using natural materials such as bamboo, wood, and stone. These buildings represent environmental preservation. The Kampung Naga community has profound knowledge about shapes, patterns, and geometric relationships in their daily lives. This knowledge is reflected in the settlement patterns, buildings, and various traditional rituals they perform. The application of ethnomathematics in mathematics education in schools can enhance motivation and broaden the insight of students regarding the culture and local wisdom in their environment. There are several mathematical elements in the architecture of Kampung Naga buildings that can be applied in mathematics education, including plane geometry, solid geometry, similarity, and tessellation. In the educational context, this study highlights the importance of introducing geometric knowledge in the school curriculum. The integration of geometric elements from local culture can enrich students' understanding of geometry and enhance the relevance of mathematics to their daily lives.
