At that time there appeared a very aggressive tiger, at night the villagers did not dare to leave the house, dare not go into the forest to cut wood, find food. Facing this situation, a C'Ho hero volunteered to enter the jungle, and spent more than a month watching and preparing for the fight. One day he found the tiger in the forest, after approaching the tiger he shot an arrow hit the tiger body, it painfully screamed and ran straight into the jungle, from which the tiger no longer returned, the villagers began to go to the forest for food and back to normal life. To commemorate the merits of the ancient K'Ho hero, they have built a huge statue of valiant warriors, holding bow hand toward to the sky.
