ebu gogo The Ebu Gogo are a group of human-like creatures that appear in the mythology of Flores, Indonesia.〔Forth, Gregory L. ''Beneath the volcano: religion, cosmology and spirit classification among the Nage of eastern Indonesia'', 1998, ISBN 90-6718-120-X〕 In the Nage language of central Flores, ''ebu'' means 'grandmother' and ''gogo'' means 'he who eats anything'. A colloquial English equivalent might be something like "Granny Glutton." ==Appearance== The Nage people of Flores describe the Ebu Gogo as having been able walkers and fast runners around 1.5 m tall. They reportedly had wide and flat noses, broad faces with large mouths and hairy bodies. The females also had "long, pendulous breasts."〔Forth, Gregory. ''Images of the Wildman in Southeast Asia: An Anthropological Perspective'', Taylor and Francis:2009〕 They were said to have murmured in what was assumed to be their own language and could reportedly repeat what was said to them in a parrot-like fashion.
