Abstract

Ethnomathematics is the study that examines the relationship between mathematics and culture, as well as how certain cultural groups develop and apply mathematical concepts in their daily lives. This research, using the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method, aims to explore geometric concepts integrated into various woven fabric motifs in Indonesia. The findings of this study are expected to serve as a foundation for teachers to better utilize Indonesias cultural heritage, especially woven fabric motifs, in teaching geometry in schools. The application of ethnomathematics can make the mathematics learning process more meaningful and engaging, while also serving as a means to foster students love for their homeland.
