About

Bogani is the name for the ancestors of the people Bolaang Mongondow or the first person to inhabit the Totabuan. The historical evidence about it besides the story which grow in community, also evidenced by the grave of "Bogani" male whose length is approximately 8 meters and 6 meters female that was buried atop Passi, although scientifically this is indisputable.

Another interpretations explains, "Bogani" is the call or the nickname for the kings at Bolaang Mongondow a long ago. There also interpreted the "Bogani" is the most powerful people who once inhabited the territory Bolaang Mongondow, they keep and fight anyone who dared to seize the territory. Bogani is also meant as group leaders, there is also saying "Bogani" is Jin or creature invisible to the eye. And maybe many another interpretations that I have not been know.

The term of "Bogani" is was grounded in the district of Bolaang Mongondow. So strong the meaning of Bogani for the people of Totabuan, so that all Bolaang Mongondow student dormitories around the Indonesia is named Asrama Bogani (Asbog). The term of "Bogani", whether as name or just a symbol of strength, has gained a very significant space for the Bol-Mong ( like that the Bolaang Mongondow people usually call them regions) people, myself included and maybe you.
