A long time ago in a forest on the islands of Aru, there lived a group of deer. They are very proud of his running ability. Their work other than grazing, is challenging other animals to escape fighting. If they were to beat him, the deer was going to take the place of residence.
Ditepian lies the forest is a very beautiful beach. There live sea slug named Kulomang. Marine snail known as a clever animal, and very loyal friend. One day, the deer came to the Kulomang. Sea snail was challenged to compete in the run up to the headland to the eleven. The stakes are the coast of the sea slug residence.
In the heart of the deer that was certain to defeat the Kulomang. Not only the way very slowly, the Kulomang also shouldered shells. Shells are usually bigger than his body. Such a size that is caused by the shell that is the home of sea snails. The house was useless to resist so as not to float at high tide. And it is useful to protect the marine snails from the blazing sun.
On the appointed day the deer had invited his friends to watch the game. While the Kulomang have prepared ten friends. Each tail of his friend placed starting from the promontory to promontory into two to eleven. He himself will be in place beginning of the match. Ordered for her friends to answer every question the Deer.
Once the game started, the deer ran as quickly as possible ahead of the Kulomang. A few hours is already reached the second headland. His breath was panting. In my heart he was convinced that the Kulomang may only reach a distance of several meters. With pride he shouted, "Kulomang, now where are you?" Friend of the Kulomang replied, "I'm right behind you." Great astonishment of the deer, he did not break but ran helter-skelter.

Lutung Kasarung
Agustus 22, 2008 pada 8:05 am (Cerita Rakyat)
Pada jaman dahulu kala di tatar pasundan ada sebuah kerajaan yang pimpin oleh seorang raja yang bijaksana, beliau dikenal sebagai Prabu Tapak Agung.
Prabu Tapa Agung mempunyai dua orang putri cantik yaitu Purbararang dan adiknya Purbasari.
Pada saat mendekati akhir hayatnya Prabu Tapak Agung menunjuk Purbasari, putri bungsunya sebagai pengganti. “Aku sudah terlalu tua, saatnya aku turun tahta,” kata Prabu Tapa.
Purbasari memiliki kakak yang bernama Purbararang. Ia tidak setuju adiknya diangkat menggantikan Ayah mereka. “Aku putri Sulung, seharusnya ayahanda memilih aku sebagai penggantinya,” gerutu Purbararang pada tunangannya yang bernama Indrajaya. Kegeramannya yang sudah memuncak membuatnya mempunyai niat mencelakakan adiknya. Ia menemui seorang nenek sihir untuk memanterai Purbasari. Nenek sihir itu memanterai Purbasari sehingga saat itu juga tiba-tiba kulit Purbasari menjadi bertotol-totol hitam. Purbararang jadi punya alasan untuk mengusir adiknya tersebut. “Orang yang dikutuk seperti dia tidak pantas menjadi seorang Ratu !” ujar Purbararang.
Kemudian ia menyuruh seorang Patih untuk mengasingkan Purbasari ke hutan. Sesampai di hutan patih tersebut masih berbaik hati dengan membuatkan sebuah pondok untuk Purbasari. Ia pun menasehati Purbasari, “Tabahlah Tuan Putri. Cobaan ini pasti akan berakhir, Yang Maha Kuasa pasti akan selalu bersama Putri”. “Terima kasih paman”, ujar Purbasari.
Selama di hutan ia mempunyai banyak teman yaitu hewan-hewan yang selalu baik kepadanya. Diantara hewan tersebut ada seekor kera berbulu hitam yang misterius. Tetapi kera tersebut yang paling perhatian kepada Purbasari. Lutung kasarung selalu menggembirakan Purbasari dengan mengambilkan bunga –bunga yang indah serta buah-buahan bersama teman-temannya.
Pada saat malam bulan purnama, Lutung Kasarung bersikap aneh. Ia berjalan ke tempat yang sepi lalu bersemedi. Ia sedang memohon sesuatu kepada Dewata. Ini membuktikan bahwa Lutung Kasarung bukan makhluk biasa. Tidak lama kemudian, tanah di dekat Lutung merekah dan terciptalah sebuah telaga kecil, airnya jernih sekali. Airnya mengandung obat yang sangat harum.
Keesokan harinya Lutung Kasarung menemui Purbasari dan memintanya untuk mandi di telaga tersebut. “Apa manfaatnya bagiku ?”, pikir Purbasari. Tapi ia mau menurutinya. Tak lama setelah ia menceburkan dirinya. Sesuatu terjadi pada kulitnya. Kulitnya menjadi bersih seperti semula dan ia menjadi cantik kembali. Purbasari sangat terkejut dan gembira ketika ia bercermin ditelaga tersebut.
Di istana, Purbararang memutuskan untuk melihat adiknya di hutan. Ia pergi bersama tunangannya dan para pengawal. Ketika sampai di hutan, ia akhirnya bertemu dengan adiknya dan saling berpandangan. Purbararang tak percaya melihat adiknya kembali seperti semula. Purbararang tidak mau kehilangan muka, ia mengajak Purbasari adu panjang rambut. “Siapa yang paling panjang rambutnya dialah yang menang !”, kata Purbararang. Awalnya Purbasari tidak mau, tetapi karena terus didesak ia meladeni kakaknya. Ternyata rambut Purbasari lebih panjang.
“Baiklah aku kalah, tapi sekarang ayo kita adu tampan tunangan kita, Ini tunanganku”, kata Purbararang sambil mendekat kepada Indrajaya. Purbasari mulai gelisah dan kebingungan. Akhirnya ia melirik serta menarik tangan Lutung Kasarung. Lutung Kasarung melonjak-lonjak seakan-akan menenangkan Purbasari. Purbararang tertawa terbahak-bahak, “Jadi monyet itu tunanganmu ?”.
Pada saat itu juga Lutung Kasarung segera bersemedi. Tiba-tiba terjadi suatu keajaiban. Lutung Kasarung berubah menjadi seorang Pemuda gagah berwajah sangat tampan, lebih dari Indrajaya. Semua terkejut melihat kejadian itu seraya bersorak gembira. Purbararang akhirnya mengakui kekalahannya dan kesalahannya selama ini. Ia memohon maaf kepada adiknya dan memohon untuk tidak dihukum. Purbasari yang baik hati memaafkan mereka. Setelah kejadian itu akhirnya mereka semua kembali ke Istana.
Purbasari menjadi seorang ratu, didampingi oleh seorang pemuda idamannya. Pemuda yang ternyata selama ini selalu mendampinginya dihutan dalam wujud seekor lutung.

Their livelihoods are agricultural laborers. Every day they walk kedesa village offers strength to pound rice.
If Inaq Lembain pound rice it came with her two children as well. One day, he was busy pounding rice. Both children placed on a flat rock near where he worked.
Surprisingly, when Inaq began to pound, the rock where they sit more and more ascending. Feeling like removed, then the eldest son started calling his mother: "Mother is the higher the stone." But unfortunately Inaq Lembain was busy working. Answered, "My son just wait a minute, Mom was just pounding."
That happened repeatedly. Flat stone is increasingly rising to more than a coconut tree. The two children then scream uncontrollably. However, Inaq Lembain keep busy pounding and winnowing rice. Children's voices were getting more and more faint. Eventually the voice was not heard from again.
Goloq stone was increasingly high. Up to bring the children reach the clouds. They were crying uncontrollably. Just when it Inaq Lembain realized, that her children are gone. They were taken up by the Stone Goloq.
Inaq Lembain sobbed. He then prayed for to take his son. Syahdan prayer was answered. He was given magical powers. with his belt he will be able to cut off the Stone Goloq it. Miraculously, the stone was cut with his belt severed into three parts. The first part falls in a place which later was named the Village Gembong olrh because the soil there quivering. The second part falls in a place called Stone Dasan because there are people who witnessed the fall of a fragment of this stone. And the last piece falls somewhere rumbling noise. So the place was named Montong Teker.
While the two children had not fallen to earth. They have turned into a two-tailed bird. The eldest son turned into a bird Kekuwo and sister turned into a bird Kelik. Therefore, both derived from humans, the two birds were not able to incubate their eggs.
