The Legend of Rawa Pening
Once
upon a time, there
was a little poor
boy came into a
little village. He
was very hungry
and weak. He
knocked at every
door and asked for
some food, but
nobody cared
about him.
Nobody wanted to
help the little boy.
Finally, a generous
woman helped
him. She gave him
shelter and a
meal. When the
boy wanted to
leave, this old
woman gave him
a “lesung”, a big
wooden mortar for
pounding rice. She
reminded him,
“please remember,
if there is a flood
you must save
yourself. Use this
“lesung” as a
boat”. The
“lesung” was
happy and
thanked the old
woman.The little
boy continued his
journey. While he
was passing
through the
village, he saw
many people
gathering on the
field. The boy
came closer and
saw a stick stuck
in the ground.
People challenged
each other to pull
out that stick.
Everybody tried,
but nobody
succeeded. “Can I
try?” asked the
little boy. The
crowd laughed
mockingly. The
boy wanted to try
his luck so he
stepped forward
and pulled out the
stick. He could do
it very easily.
Everybody was
dumbfounded.
Suddenly, from the
hole left by stick,
water spouted
out. It did not
stop until it
flooded the
village. And no
one was saved
from the water
except the little
boy and the
generous old
woman who gave
him shelter and
meal. As she told
him, he used the
“lesung” as a boat
and picked up the
old woman. The
whole village
became a huge
lake. It is now
known as Rawa
Pening Lake in
Salatiga, Central
Java, Indonesia.
