The purpose of this study is to describe folklore based on local wisdom as an introduction to the archipelago culture on learning Tisol in Surakarta city. The method used in this research is descriptive qualitative, observation, and interview. Folklore is spread verbally, word of mouth from parents to children or grandchildren, with the aim of giving advice, advice that is illustrated by the character of the story. Advice usually contains the values of students, moral messages, ethics and manners embraced by eastern society. As oral literature, many possibilities of folklore will disappear from the archipelago, as they leave their ancestors, native speakers of folklore. So we need a means to maintain this culture by writing it in written literary form. Folklore written in the form of book documents, has the following benefits: (1) as learning material for students of all levels of education, (2) as Indonesian Language Education student textbooks, especially in creative writing courses, (3) as Tisol learning material, (4 ) a book on cultural enrichment of the local area, (5) preservation of the archipelago culture in the field of literature.
