The approach used is a qualitative approach with the type of descriptive-qualitative research. Data collection techniques used are observation, interviews, documentation, and literature studies. The results of the study reveal that the kris as a cultural artifact, in the development of the era of globalization, is faced with two choices.

Second, the progressive view requires changes that lead to cultural modernization.
