The sar culture is a culture owned by the Kanum tribe, one of the tribes that inhabit the Tomer village, Naukenjerai District, Merauke Regency, Papua, Indonesia. This culture forbids humans to take or cultivate an area that has been enforced by sar . This study aims to reconstruct indigenous knowledge of the Kanum tribe through the sar culture, which is considered important to be applied in the teaching materials of environmental physics. This type of research uses descriptive qualitative research with an ethnoscience approach. Data was taken through interviews with customary leaders and some reliable sources. The results show that the sar culture can be used as a teaching material for environmental physics and as a way to keep the nature and culture of the Kanume tribe as well.
