There are five popular versions of the story about the origins of Reog and Warok, but one of the most famous stories is the story of Ki Ageng Kutu's rebellion, a royal servant in the Bhre Kertabhumi period, the last Majapahit King who came to power in the fifteenth century. Ki Ageng Kutu wrath of the strong influence of the wife of the king of Majapahit king who came from China, but also the wrath of his king in a corrupt government, he also saw that the power of Majapahit Kingdom will end. He then abandoned the king and set up a college where he taught martial arts to young people, the science of immunity, and the science of perfection in the hope that these young children will be the seed of the reign of the Majapahit kingdom again. Realizing that his troops were too small to fight the royal army, Ki Ageng Kutu's political message was conveyed through Reog's art performance, which was an "allusion" to King Kertabhumi and his kingdom. Reog performances became the way Ki Ageng Lice built up the resistance of local people using the popularity of Reog.
