What is Legend of Komodo Island about?
The document summarizes a folklore from East Nusa Tenggara about the origins of Komodo dragons. It describes how a woman named Epa gave birth to twins - a boy named Gerong and a lizard named Ora. As Ora grew, he became increasingly aggressive and dangerous. The villagers expelled Ora to the forest. Though exiled, Ora continued visiting his twin brother Gerong. The villagers see the Komodo dragons as ancestors and honor them annually with a fruit pounding ritual.
