The tale of Batu Golog comes from West Nusa Tenggara. Once upon a time, long, long ago, in a place called Padamara near the Sawing River, there lived a husband and wife with their two children. The husband was named Amaq Lembain, and his wife was called Inaq Lembain.
Their family was very poor. To earn a living, they worked as farm laborers, helping other people with their work. Every day, they walked all the way to the village to offer their strength to the villagers, pounding rice for other people. Whenever Inaq Lembain went to work, her two children always went along with her.
