Abstract: Ethnoscience plays a crucial role in integrating cultural knowledge into science education, especially in multicultural contexts like Indonesia. This study aims to provide a comprehensive examination of the current state of ethnoscience research within the realm of elementary science education in Indonesia. By employing a systematic literature review, this research analyzes a corpus of 70 articles published between 2014 and 2023, sourced from prominent databases such as Scopus and Indonesia's Ministry of Education and Culture's accredited national journal database (SINTA). Through content analysis, the study delves into the thematic content, methodologies, and findings of the reviewed literature. The synthesis of these diverse sources offers a nuanced understanding of the landscape of ethnoscience research in Indonesian elementary science education. Additionally, this review identifies existing gaps and provides insights into potential directions for future research, contributing to the ongoing discourse on integrating cultural knowledge in science education within diverse educational settings. This research is of significant value to educators, policymakers, and researchers aiming to enhance the cultural relevance and effectiveness of science education in elementary schools
