Long
time ago in West Java lived a woman named Dayang Sumbi. She lived alone
in a forest. One dayDayang Sumbi was quilting when suddenly, her quilt
fell off from her house. Then she prayed to God. “If a man picks up my
quilt, he will be my husband. If a woman, she will be my sister.” Then a
male dog picks it up. For keeping her words, Dayang Sumbi married the
dog and called him Tumang. Dayang Sumbi gave birth to a baby, named him
Sangkuriang but never told him who his father was.
One
day, Sangkuriang was hunting with Tumang in the forest and he found
nothing. He blamed Tumang for the failure and killed him. When Dayang
Sumbi knew that, she hit Sangkuriang’s head with a big spoon and asked
him to go.
Many
years later, the wandering Sangkuriang found a house in the forest, and
an old beautiful woman was in the house. The woman, Dayang Sumbi
recognized the adventurer as Sangkuriang. Sangkuriang forced her to
marry him and Dayang Sumbi asked him to make a vast boat in one night.
In the night Sangkuriang called his friends, ghosts, and forest fairies,
to help him. Dayang Sumbi feared the boat could be finished on time, so
she asked some woman nearby to help her. The woman hit the grain
punchers to make noise which disturbed the ghosts and the fairies. The
ghosts and the fairies run away before completing the boat. Sangkuriang
was very angry. He kicked away the boat upside down, and it turned into a
