Abstract

This research contributes to investigate a cultural continuity, particularly
naming practice, in a homogenous Javanese community installing
Petangan Jawa (Javanese Calculations). However, common Javanese
slowly ignore it. This study employs a descriptive qualitative approach
with fieldwork to investigate the intention behind the name. Therefore,
two varieties of Petangan Jawa, namely, a calculation based on
calendar properties and a calculation based on Javanese script values,
are still consistently used. In addition, this study paves the way for future
research on the causes of the gradual abandonment of Petangan Jawa
among common Javanese and how the perspective of religious beliefs
about Petangan Jawa is used to predict the future.
