Based on the stories of the elders, the Serawai tribe originates from an ancestor named Serunting Sakti with the title Si Pahit Lidah. Apart from that, there are also those who think that Serunting Sakti is the child of an illicit relationship between Puyang Chief Jurai and Putri Tenggang. Putri Senggang is the daughter of Rajo Megat, who has 2 children, namely Rajo Mawang & Putri Senggang. After that, Putri Tenggang gave birth to a daughter who was named Putri Tolak Merindu. After Putri Tenggang gave birth to a daughter who was named Putri Tolak Merindu, a marriage took place between Putri Tenggang and Puyang Chief Jurai, and this was done after Putri Tolak Merindu was able to walk and speak. In Majapahit, Serunting Sakti asked for an area/territory to live in.

In Ekorusyono's Rejang Culture, it is stated that at least in the 2nd century AD, Rejang's ancestors sailed across the ocean & landed on the west coast of Sumatra.  They then occupied the downstream area of ​​the Ketahun River before finally continuing along the river until they reached the Lebong area, which at that time was called Renah Sekalawi. Before going to Sumatra, Rejang's ancestors are thought to have stopped for a long time in Kalimantan, before crossing to Sumatra via Bangka & landing on the Musi River. Perhaps because of security & conquest factors, Rejang's ancestors continued along the Musi and Rawas Rivers upstream.  After reaching the present Rejang area, Rejang's ancestors did not immediately become familiar with agriculture/cultivation.
