ROSA, Milton  e  OREY, Daniel Clark. Polysemic interactions of ethnomathematics: an overview. ETD [online]. 2017, vol.19, n.3, pp.589-621. ISSN 1676-2592.  https://doi.org/10.20396/etd.v19i3.8649589.

Local knowledge interrelationships related to assorted academic knowledge areas are important to enable a more precise understanding about a particular study field in relation to diverse forms of mathematics. Here, in this article, interrelations are addressed, especially wherever one needs to understand specific concepts acquired in academic knowledge broadly-based on science and mathematics; which may be supported by research fields called ethnoscience or ethnomathematics. This theoretical article essentially considers the emergence of important terminologies connected to certain research areas referred as ethno-x. By means of a bibliographic study, the central theme of ethno-x presents us with an attempt to understand polysemical relations that emphasize the ethno in the sciences. The main goal in this discussion is to further advance research and understanding in relation to an ethnomathematics research program and its polysemic relation with other knowledge fields.
