Ethnomathematics school practices favor respect for, solidarity and cooperation with, the others. It is associated with the pursuit of peace. The main goal of ethnomathematics is building up a civilization free from truculence, arrogance, intolerance, discrimination, inequity, bigotry, and hatred of the others. These are basic questions that define philosophical and ideological postures, which are the roots of a holistic theory of knowledge, looking into the generation, the individual and social organization, and the institutionalization, transmission and diffusion of knowledge. This concept of ethnomathematics is primeval in recognizing the emergence of perceptions of space and time and the techniques of observing, comparing, classifying, ordering, measuring, quantifying and inferring that are different styles of abstract thinking in the school curricula. This is can be achieved by the application of the trivium curriculum, which is an innovative ethnomathematical approach that needs more investigations to address its pedagogical purposes.
