Galungan falls in wuku dunggulan. galungan is the day of victory, the meaning of the word galungan is a victory. and the meaning of the word dunggulan is also victory. i have a tendency that the wuku dunggulan derived its name from the celebration of galungan. and there is a probability that the wuku kuningan derives its name from the kuningan ceremony. besides there is no authoritative texts which can be based for finding the origin of the kuningan's name. the origin of name “kuningan” is an open subject for debate. for kuningan as a part of galungan period i am not sure it’s derive from the wuku’s name. why i am not sure? we have to take the consideration of Galungan case.
