The stone head of legendary Kebo Iwa can be found in the temple, Pura Gaduh in Blahbatuh. It is believed that Kebo Iwa was the minister to the last king of the Bedulu kingdom. Kebo Iwa was so strong that Gajah Mada could not conquer Bedulu until he had Kebo Iwa killed by tricking him into going to Java. Archaeologists think that the stone head is quite old but the temple in which it is housed is a reconstruction, the original having been destroyed by the earthquake in 1917.
