Abstract
Rumah gadang, a traditional house of Minangkabau people, a tribe in Indonesia, is a form of manifestation of the knowledge of that ethnic which has unique architecture. The design and the construction of rumah gadang are traditional craftsman creation. This article presents a study on measurement which employs the process of constructing and measuring a rumah gadang. Using ethnography method, information was gathered from tukang tuo as a traditional craftsman. Identified from the interview, dapo (fathom), eto (cubit), jangko (span), tampok (a hand), and jari (finger), are the measurement units that are used by traditional craftsman. Using non-standard measurement units, therefore, can be recommended for the teachers in their instruction in mathematics classroom in West Sumatera.
