Abstract

This study investigates the forms, functions, and meanings of the folklore associated with the Royal Tombs of Imogiri in Bantul, Special Region of Yogyakarta, and examines its potential as authentic Indonesian language teaching material for junior high school students. The research addresses the question of how Imogiri folklore reflects cultural values and how these narratives can be transformed into pedagogically meaningful learning resources. Employing a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through field observations, in-depth interviews with three key informants (a tomb guardian, a royal attendant, and a long-time resident), and documentation, and were analyzed using William R. Bascom’s four-function folklore theory and Danandjaja’s folklore classification. The findings identify three dominant folklore forms—legend, myth, and folk narrative—that collectively fulfill Bascom’s four folkloric functions: projection, cultural validation, education, and social control, while conveying interconnected cultural, social, and spiritual meanings. The study concludes that Imogiri folklore possesses substantial pedagogical value as contextual Indonesian language teaching material, supporting character education and local wisdom integration while extending previous scholarship by positioning folklore as the primary analytical focus and systematically translating its narrative functions into a practical instructional framework.
