Dragons are legendary mythological creatures in almost all corners of the world. His presence is still a big puzzle in life on earth. Every country in the world has its own version of belief in dragons. Indonesia, in fact, also has a dragon figure that becomes a mythology. The dragon is named Sang Hyang Antaboga (the Javanese call it Ontobugo).

For the people of Java and Bali, the story of Antaboga has been passed down from generation to generation with the same story taken from wayang stories. The similarity of beliefs and stories about Antaboga in Java and Bali is due to the similarity of the people's beliefs in the era of the development of Hindu-Buddhist teachings in the archipelago.

"In the wayang story, Antaboga is described as living in a place called Saptapralata or the seven layers of earth that are in the ground," he added. He also has a wife named Dewi Supreti who is also in the form of a dragon. From there then he had offspring and children.

Antaboga has two children, named Bambang Naga Tatmala and Dewi Nagagini.

The Javanese belief in dragons is actually not only depicted in the figure of Antaboga. Prior to its appearance, in the reliefs left by Majapahit there was also a depiction of a dragon. The relief of Nagaraja Anuhut Surya was found in the Sawentar temple, Blitar, dating to 1396 AD.
