Keywords:

This research explored the mathematical concepts contained in the traditional paintings and carvings of Teluk Ampimoi Kepulauan Yapen, an indigenous district in the Kepulauan Yapen Regency, Papua, Indonesia, that can be used in school mathematics instruction and learning. Ethnographic research with an ethnomathematical research model was used. Data was collected using participant observation and in-depth interview techniques and was analysed using taxonomic, domain, and ethnographic methods. The results showed that the various forms of traditional paintings and carvings of Teluk Ampimoi, Kepulauan Yapen exhibit mathematical concepts in the form of geometry, namely plane geometry and transformation geometry and approximation, namely, measurement. Based on the taxonomic analysis, it was found that the geometric concepts can be integrated with mathematics learning in schools in the field of geometry concerned with the properties, perimeter, and area of rectangles, parallelograms, and triangles. In addition, the geometric transformation contained in the items related to reflection.
