History
[edit]The Origin of Watubonang Village
[edit]According to the history or stories passed down by the elders of Watubonang Village, there is a hamlet where a large, flat stone is found, giving the impression of being smooth. Due to its width, people refer to this stone as "batu platar" (platar stone). On top of the platar stone, there are four rectangular stone slabs, each with a thickness of approximately 25 cm to 30 cm. These stone slabs have protrusions resembling the knobs on a bonang (a traditional Indonesian musical instrument). It is said that when these stone knobs are struck, they produce sound, with each knob emitting a different tone, similar to the sound of a bonang being played.
After many people learned about and witnessed the stone producing sound when struck, news of this phenomenon quickly spread to the Surakarta Palace. Kanjeng Sinuwun Pakubuwono IX, the ruler of the palace at that time,[5] sent a royal servant to verify the truth of the report. After the envoy confirmed the accuracy of the report by striking the stone and hearing it produce sound, he returned to the palace to report back to Kanjeng Sinuwun Pakubuwono IX.
Because Pakubuwono IX regarded the stone as magical, he requested that it be moved to the Surakarta Palace. The royal servant then returned to Watubonang to retrieve the stone. However, when the envoys arrived at the location, they were unable to lift the stone, even though it should have been possible for just two people to carry it.
Finally, one of the royal servants asked for help from Mr. Prawirodikromo, the owner of the land where the stone was located. After Mr. Prawirodikromo agreed, he approached the stone while praying to God Almighty. After performing his prayers, he asked two of the royal servants to step forward and lift the stone. Surprisingly, the stone became light when lifted. The stone was then immediately taken to the Surakarta Palace.
Because the stack of stones resembled a bonang, Kanjeng Sinuwun Pakubuwono IX named the hamlet Watubonang, which is now known as Watubonang Hamlet, Rt 1 Rw 3. Since the stone was located on Mr. Prawirodikromo's land, Kanjeng Sinuwun IX appointed him as the polo (village chief). Unfortunately, the villagers do not know exactly when Mr. Prawirodikromo was appointed as the polo or village chief.

Taruwongso Mount
[edit]The northern part of Mount Taruwongso is within the territory of Watubonang Village, Tawangsari District. Meanwhile, the southern part is within the territory of Tawang Village and Ngreco Village, Weru District, Sukoharjo Regency.[6]
Legend has it that Sunan Kalijaga was the one who named Mount Taruwongso. The name "Taruwongso" is derived from the words "taru," meaning "tree," and "wongso," meaning "fruit." With this name, it was hoped that Mount Taruwongso would become a hill that produces an abundance of fruit. Since ancient times, it has been believed that if the community manages Mount Taruwongso well, the income of both the community and the village government would flourish. Several decades ago, Mount Taruwongso was frequently visited by people, especially during the Eid al-Fitr holiday.[6]. For three days, tens of thousands of visitors, both locals and those from other regions, would come to Mount Taruwongso[6]
In 1974, the Watubonang Village Government, along with the village institutions at that time, managed and raised funds for the Mount Taruwongso area. They did this by selling entrance tickets to visitors of Mount Taruwongso for three days during the Eid al-Fitr holiday. The proceeds from ticket sales were used for various village government activities, including village administration, building the village office, and development projects at the Mount Taruwongso site. Mount Taruwongso became the largest contributor of funds for village government activities. However, over the years, revenue from Mount Taruwongso began to decline, as the number of visitors decreased, leading to a reduction in overall income.

Prince Banjaransari
[edit]The Legend of Taruwongso Mountain centers around Prince Banjaransari, originally named Raden Jaka Panekti,[7] the son of Prabu Brawijaya V, the last king of the Majapahit Empire in Java.[8] This legend is deeply rooted in Javanese history and culture, reflecting the region's rich tradition of storytelling.
The story takes place during the late 15th century,[9] a time of political turmoil in the Majapahit Empire. A war erupted between Prabu Brawijaya V and Prabu Girindrawardhana, the king of Daha (Kediri), East Java. The war was also known as Kraman Girindrawardana. Girindrawardhana, a descendant of a previous Majapahit king, sought to reclaim the throne, leading to a conflict that resulted in significant loss of life and the eventual decline of the Majapahit Empire.
To escape the dangers of war, Raden Jaka Panekti fled westward, eventually reaching the peak of Watubonang in Tawangsari, Sukoharjo. This location later became known as Taruwongso Mountain. During his time in seclusion, Raden Jaka Panekti engaged in meditation and was reportedly visited by Sunan Kalijaga, a prominent Wali Songo, or Islamic saint, who guided him in his spiritual practices.
Sunan Kalijaga played a significant role in naming the mountain. The name "Taruwongso" is derived from the Javanese words "taru," meaning tree, and "wongso," meaning fruit. The name symbolized the hope that the mountain would bring prosperity to the people living in its vicinity.
To protect his identity and avoid detection by his enemies, Raden Jaka Panekti adopted the name Prince Banjaransari. Despite being of royal lineage, he chose to live as an ordinary villager, engaging in farming and caring for animals. He also became a respected leader of the local Islamic community.
A key event in the legend is the battle between Prince Banjaransari and a genie named Ki Hajar Danurumekso, who sought to control Taruwongso Mountain. According to the legend, Prince Banjaransari, endowed with supernatural powers, defeated Ki Hajar, forcing him and his followers to relocate to Lawu Mountain. However, Ki Hajar's sister, Dewi Danumayawati, chose to remain and became the guardian of Sendang Kopo, a sacred spring on the mountain.
Prince Banjaransari is remembered for his devotion to religious life and his noble character. After his death, he was buried on the east side of Taruwongso Mountain. His tomb became a site of pilgrimage, especially for Dalangs, who are traditional Javanese puppet showmen. It is believed that visiting his tomb and offering prayers can bring blessings and success in their performances.
