Sangkuriang
The story of Sangkuriang began when a king named Sungging Perbangkara was out hunting in the forest. In the midst of his hunt, he felt the urge to pee and headed for the bushes.
When he was fulfilling his desire, the king's urine was contained in caring leaves (jungle taro) which was accidentally drunk by a female wild boar who was becoming a human named Wayung.
Instantly Wayung became pregnant and gave birth to a beautiful baby named Dayang Sumbi. Dayang Sumbi's beauty became more visible as she grew older. So, many of the kings wanted to marry her. In fact, there are those who are willing to fight for Dayang Sumbi.
Because Dayang Sumbi did not want to get married, she finally went into exile accompanied by her dog, whose name was Tumang. One time, Dayang Sumbi was busy weaving cloth and accidentally the thread she was using suddenly fell.
Because he felt lazy to take the scroll, for some reason it came out of his mouth that anyone who could get the thread if she was a woman, would make her a brother. However, if it is a man, he will become a husband.
"Whoever can get the thread, if he is a woman I will make him a brother, and if he is a man I will make him a husband," said Dayang Sumbi.
Unexpectedly, it was Tumang his pet dog who picked up the scroll. And because he had promised, Dayang Sumbi finally married Tumang.
Tumang is actually an incarnation of a god who transformed into a dog. From that marriage, a child was born who was named Sangkuriang.
Sangkuriang grew up to be a tough boy and liked to hunt in the forest. Every time he hunts, he is always accompanied by his mother's favorite dog, Tumang. He also did not know that Tumang was his father because his mother, Dayang Sumbi, had deliberately kept it a secret.
One day when Sangkuriang was about to hunt with Tumang, he ordered Tumang to chase after the female pig of Wayung, who was none other than Dayang Sumbi's mother. Because he did not obey Sangkuriang's orders, Sangkuriang killed the Tumang. Si Tumang's heart was taken by Sangkuriang and given to his mother, Dayang Sumbi to be cooked and eaten.
Knowing that what he ate was Tumang's heart, his anger peaked. Immediately, Sangkuriang's head was beaten until he was injured and expelled from his residence.
Sangkuriang who felt disappointed with his mother's treatment went wandering. After the incident, Dayang Sumbi regretted her actions. He prayed to the gods for guidance and hoped that Sangkuriang would return home soon.
Time passed, until Sangkuriang grew into a man who was dashing and handsome. I do not know how long he wandered until without realizing it, Sangkuriang returned to the forest where he came from. There Sangkuriang was fascinated by a daughter he met in the middle of the forest, who was none other than his own mother, Dayang Sumbi. Apparently Dayang Sumbi has high supernatural powers so that she looks young like a girl.
Dayang Sumbi's prayer was answered, even though she was no longer young, she still looked beautiful. Until one day, Sangkuriang met Dayang Sumbi, but he no longer recognized Dayang Sumbi as his mother, and even fell in love with him.
Likewise with Dayang Sumbi who did not know that the dashing man was Sangkuriang and they made love. One day Dayang Sumbi was stroking Sangkuriang's head, when he accidentally found a scar from the blow that was done to Sangkuriang several years ago. Knowing this, Dayang Sumbi believed that Sangkuriang was his biological son.
Sangkuriang, who had proposed to Dayang Sumbi, made him confused and looked for a way so that the marriage with Sangkuriang would never happen. Finally, Dayang Sumbi put forward several requirements, namely Sangkuriang must be able to build lakes and boats and dam the Citarum river in one night.
Sangkuriang agreed to this requirement because he had studied and became a magic mandraguna. As a result, Sangkuriang was able to fulfill the requirements that Dayang Sumbi had given him. When all the work was almost done, Dayang Sumbi was confused and asked Dewa for directions.
The god ordered Dayang Sumbi to shake off the scarf she had and magically the sun appeared on the eastern horizon, a sign that morning had come.
