Kisah dan tradisi
Göl Boğaları, disebut juga su boğaları (banteng air), adalah makhluk khayalan yang menurut kepercayaan setempat tinggal di danau-danau gunung Artvin, terutama di Ardanuç, Şavşat, dan Yusufeli, serta di sekitar Posof. Sumber kedua menyebut bahwa di beberapa daerah Anadolu, penghuni danau gunung semacam ini dikenal sebagai Göl Boğası atau Su Boğası. Mereka dipercaya dapat dilihat pada cahaya pertama pagi, sebelum menyelam dan lenyap ke dalam air. Legenda yang paling dikenal bercerita tentang seorang pandai besi yang menggembalakan ternaknya di tepi Boğa Gölü. Banteng danau naik ke darat untuk bergulat dengan banteng milik pria itu dan menang. Untuk membalas, si pandai besi memasang tanduk baja pada bantengnya; pada pertarungan berikutnya banteng danau terluka parah, kabur ke danau, dan darahnya mewarnai air. Jalur kemerahan di danau, yang sebenarnya pantulan batu dan tanah merah, dipercaya sebagai bekas darah itu, dan banteng yang terluka konon mengutuk si pandai besi beserta keluarganya hingga jatuh sengsara. Kumpulan legenda air dari Ardanuç memuat versi serupa. Di satu danau di pegunungan Karçal, banteng danau bergulat dengan banteng seorang gembala, lalu kalah setelah si gembala mengasah tanduk bantengnya. Dalam kisah Ağgöl, banteng danau bergulat dengan banteng desa Tütünlü, kembali ke danau setelah kalah, dan bekas darahnya dikatakan masih terlihat di sana.
Göl Boğaları, also called su boğaları (water bulls), are imaginary beings that, according to local belief, live in the mountain lakes of Artvin, chiefly around Ardanuç, Şavşat and Yusufeli, and around Posof. The second source says that in some parts of Anadolu such dwellers of mountain lakes are known as Göl Boğası or Su Boğası. People hold that they can be glimpsed in the first light of morning, before they plunge into the water and vanish. The best-known legend tells of a blacksmith grazing his animals by Boğa Gölü. The lake bull came ashore to wrestle the man's bull and won. In revenge the blacksmith fitted his bull with steel horns; in the next fight the lake bull was badly wounded, fled into the lake and stained the water with its blood. A reddish streak in the lake, actually a reflection of red stone and soil, is believed to be that blood, and the wounded bull is said to have cursed the blacksmith and his family into ruin. A collection of water legends from Ardanuç contains similar versions. At a lake in the Karçal mountains a lake bull wrestled a shepherd's bull and was beaten after the shepherd sharpened his bull's horns. In the tale of Ağgöl the lake bull fought the bull of Tütünlü village, returned to the lake after losing, and the trace of its blood is said to be visible there still.
Konteks budaya
Kepercayaan ini melekat pada bentang alam setempat: danau-danau Boğa Gölleri di Gunung Hargiver (Arı Dağı) mendapat namanya dari kepercayaan tentang banteng danau.
The belief is tied to the local landscape: the Boğa Gölleri lakes on Mount Hargiver (Arı Dağı) are named after the belief in lake bulls.
