Tarombo is a term for genealogy in Batak culture/language.[1] The Batak believe that they all come from the same ancestor: Si Raja Batak, the Batak patriarch.[2] They kept the genealogy line tracing back to this ancestor, called Tarombo Batak. Its origins have been clouded with legends.[clarification needed]
