Once upon a time, the King who reigns in Solo Surakarta Palace has four children, three sons and a daughter the youngest. One day, all of a sudden they smell very pungent aroma. Four brothers were very curious and interested in the aroma. Finally, they also agreed to locate its source. After preparing all the needs and got permission from his father, they journey toward the east. The farther they are to the east, it is increasingly pungent aroma. After months of going through the dense forests, crossing rivers, and the Straits of Bali, they finally arrived on the island of Bali. Then they went up to the border of the island of Bali in the east, which is the border between the Ciluk village in Karangasem and edges are located near Buleleng. Arriving at the south foot of Mount Batur, the youngest daughter suddenly stopped.

Youngest daughter is interested in the place and she asked permit to stay in place. Request youngest daughter was agreed by her brother. Since then, the youngest daughter of the Kingdom of Surakarta it dwells in that place. However, he later moved to the east slopes of Mount Batur, Batur temple place standing. Furthermore, the Princess was given the title Ratu Ayu Mas Maketeg. Meanwhile, all brother youngest daughter moved on. When arriving at a plateau named Kedisan located southwest of Lake Batur, they heard the sound of a very melodious birds. I was so happy, Third Prince shouted with joy. However, Prince Eldest was not happy to hear that her younger brother's behavior.

However, Eldest Prince was already angry. So he kicked his brother to fall into a state of cross-legged sitting position and turned into a statue.

That said, it later became the Second Prince of the village head and the village is named after the village of Abang Dukuh. Abang called because the place was part of Abang village, and Dukuh called because it comes from the word face down in the local language is called the Dukuh or hamlet.

Eldest Prince proceeded alone to find the source of the aroma. He returned down the steep edge of Lake Batur in the east. Arriving at a plateau, he found a beautiful girl goddess who was sitting alone under a tree Taru Menyan. Eldest Prince apparently so fascinated by the beauty of the Goddess and intends to propose to her.
