The results of investigation proved that the local community residents and authorities believe that Mount Merapi is there. They called her Grandmother Merapi. "You see a small hill on top of that? It's called mountain Wutah, gapuranya or grandparent Merapi palace gates." One line was proudly spilling out of a hurry, a native of Kinahrejo Cangkrinagan Sleman, shortly after we climbed a rocky barren fig tree without a bar of any decoration. Local people believe, wingit region flanked by two small mound was known as Old Man pelatarannya palace Merapi. To rise to it, reminded to uluk greetings, or just ask for permission so on it. "Kulo Nuwun grandparent, coolies, FE ingkang SOWAN, sumangga silakna rikma Niro," added his wife hastened, Suharjiyah, as he led us to imitate the pronunciation. Tenyu course, appeal a husband and wife whose bodies were becoming wrinkled with age is not without reason.

The amount of confidence of local communities against the existence of grandparent Merapi make sure that they would mystical things that happen happen to the community. For example, the gate Kramat, residents living on the slopes of Mount Merapi was believed that the gate is the antidote of all the distress. The gate that stands over 9 centuries had almost never been touched by disaster of mount Merapi. Though technically the area including a list of danger areas.
