The values are then become an example in society. The Mahabharata also provides noble values, such as obedience and discipline in carrying out religion or government orders. In general, it appears that good will always win against evil. The Mahabharata story is rich in values, such as human interest to independence, health, wealth, happiness, struggle, and personal determination to achieve goals. Meanwhile, the epic of Mahabharata was translated into Old Javanese during the reign of King Dharmawangsa Teguh in East Java several centuries later.

In the 10th century, the epic of Ramayana in Central Java was translated from Sanskrit into Old Javanese at the time of King Dyah Balitung. The Mahabharata was composed by Rsi Wiyasa, while the Ramayana was composed by Rsi Walmiki. The Indonesian puppet stories originated from the Indian epics of Mahabharata and Ramayana. Furthermore, the values and philosophy of the shadow puppet culture harbor the potential to foster the students’ good character and behavior. We found some interesting elements, characteristics, and patterns in the Javanese shadow puppet, which can be used as a starting point to learn the sets concept.

We used ethnography to explore it through literature study, documentation, and field notes. Besides, this study also discusses the righteous life values that the students could internalize during mathematics learning through shadow puppet culture. Therefore, this study aims to explore the other elements of mathematics potentially found in this context which-for this example-is the sets material. We hardly find any other material that has been explored as deep as the geometry material in the context of the Javanese shadow puppet. The elements, however, still focus on the exploration of geometry material. Some experts have explored its characteristics and found out that it contains many mathematical elements which could be used as a starting point to learn mathematics. As a country with a diverse culture, it has detailed and comprehensive characteristics and stories related to puppets, especially the Javanese shadow puppet.
