The results of this study show that 1). The Bronze Axe in Banjar Timbul has shifted in function as well as its meaning by the community; 2). The mythology becomes a strong influential aspect in the shift of the bronze axe function in Banjar Timbul; 3). That behind the mythology of the Bronze Axe there are a numorous of hidden values, including: a symbol of protection, the majesty of ancestors, and a symbol of unity.
