The legend of Mount (Gunung) Batur

Long time ago, there was a princess of King Galuh, her name is Dewi Naga Ningrum or sometimes also called Dewi Rondo Asih. As the succession came up in the Kingdom of King Galuh, another King’s wife named Dewi Pangrenyep has told a lie about Dewi Naga having such an affair with Patih. The lie would then resulted into punishment for Dewi Naga. The King sent her away, out of the Kingdom while she was pregnant. The King only gave Dewi Naga Ningrum two of his men, Saud and Musroh to guard her on her way.

In the middle of the way, Dewi Naga Ningrum felt that it was time to deliver the baby. So she asked Saud and Musroh to find some water. While those two men went away to find water, Dewi Naga delivered the baby alone and died after the process.

Saud and Musroh found their master, Dewi Naga Ningrum, has died as they got back from finding water. They saw a little baby has been born from the dead mother. Later on, the baby was named Jaka Mursada. The baby then was raised by Dewi Naga Ningrum’s grandfather named Kyai Nambi.

Kyai Nambi took out the baby’s placenta and buried it in a volcano mountain. But something strange has happened, the volcano mountain did not erupt by the time the placenta of Jaka Mursada buried in that mountain. The mountain is Mount (Gunung) Batur.
