Sundak Beach, Dog Fights and Hedgehogs are Reaping
BlessingSundak beaches not only has a fascinating natural scenery, but also
keeps the story. Sundak name turned out to have the evidence that evolution can
be traced geologically.
Areas described above prior to 1930 are still submerged sea.
That said, the water to a region that is now a mosque, which form the rock
caves were still under water. As the geological processes on the southern
coast, the sea shrank and more jutting into the sea water. Rock and the area
around the mosque became the new land which is then utilized coastal residents
to economic activity to date.
There is a unique natural phenomenon due to the activity
which eventually became the starting point of naming this beach. During the wet
season, a lot of water flowing from land to sea. As a result, the plains on the
east coast of splitting to form a formation like a river. The water that flows
like mbedah (splitting) of sand. When the drought came, it disappeared and
along parts of the sea water came in with the sand. Natural phenomenon that
causes the name of the beach into Wedibedah (sand split).
The name change took place several decades later. Around the
year 1976, there was an interesting event. One afternoon, a dog was running
around the beach and enter the cave corals met with a sea urchin. Because the
hungry, the dog was intended to take sea urchins, but the hedgehog escape.
There was a fight that eventually won the dog managed to eat half of the body
with sea urchin and exit the cave with pride. Actions known to the owner of the
dog, named Arjasangku, which saw half of the sea urchin's body in a dog's
mouth. Checking into the cave, apparently the owner found the body of sea
urchin and a half remaining. Well, since then, the name changed to Sundak
Wedibedah, abbreviation of asu (dog) and porcupine.
Unexpectedly, the fight was a blessing for locals. After
decades of water shortages, residents finally found the springs. Initially, the
wonder dog owner because the dog out of the cave with dripping wet. Hypothesis,
in the cave there is water and the dog had drowned while pursuing porcupines.
After trying out some investigations, the prediction turned out correct. Be present,
the water in a cave used for the purpose of living. From inside the cave, now
installed pipes to connect with people. The findings of this spring treat
disappointments as well established populations were inundated by sea water.
Well, if the condition in 1930 just as was said above, can
be expected conditions hundreds of years earlier. Certainly very many organisms
that take advantage of rock bottom that is now the cave and what is now the
mainland. Therefore, many archaeologists believe that as a consequence of
geological processes that exist, many organisms that left and piled into a
fossil. About what fossils are found, it has so far not been much research
reveals.
Besides offering a silent witness to history, Sundak also
offers an evening of fun. You can enjoy the night wind while ordering raw fish
to be grilled with a friend. By paying a few thousand, you can buy wood for
fuel. If you are lazy, so that messages are cooked ready to eat. What is clear,
do not be confused to find a place to stay. Visitors can sleep anywhere, set up
a tent, or just lying on the shop bench when unused nights. Darkness does not
need to fuss, is not boring if you live on brightly lit?
If you want to, interact with people can be a revelation.
You can find out how people live, their culture, and of course new people who
might be able to change your outlook on life. Mbah Tugiman meet the usual vigil
in the parking lot or Mbah Arjasangku could be an option. They are one of the
elders at the beach Sundak. Talking to them makes you not just see the evidence
of history but also get stories from people who witnessed how the history
engraved. Come, all of which there've been waiting for!
