    In cultural anthropology, people have recognized various mathematical activities, such as counting, calculating, measuring, and weighting, with different terms derived from each culture. Community activities in responding to the existence of their environment will give rise to mathematics as part of problem-solving, including finding characters or features of residence to build. Therefore, this study explores mathematical forms in the measurement of residential characters based on sikut awak that can be used in mathematics learning. This research is an ethnographic study. Data were collected from various literature studies, field observations, and interviews. Informants included in the study were two cultural experts, one Adat leader, and one traditional builder who knows sikut awak’s measurement format in determining the traditional residential characters of Sasak people. This study shows that the determination of residential characters uses mathematical models in its calculation

Perisean art performances are currently used as mere agility art performances. Pepadu is a term for players or fighters. The show is led by three referees, one pekembar tengaq (middle referee) who is in charge of leading the fight and two pekembar sedi (side referee) who is in charge of determining each pepadu. Perisean art is not only studied in the form of art but can also be studied as a form of contextual learning in mathematics. Thus, this study aims to explore the forms of mathematics and cultural values contained in the performing arts of perisean which can later be used as a source of contextual mathematics learning. This research is a qualitative research using ethnographic method. The informants used are traditional figures, pepadu, and cultural experts who understand the art of perisean , documentation and field notes. The findings show that in the performing arts of perisean in the tradition of the Sasak people there are mathematical ideas, namely geometric shapes found in perisean art instruments and musical instruments. which has the potential as a starting point in contextual mathematics learning
