[edit] Title

Is "Rannamaari", the proper way of spelling this word? I have seen it spelt many different ways, eg: "Rannamari" and "Ranamari", the latter being seen most often in modern literature.

I don't think there is any official spelling for it. When written as Rannamaari, it is the exact romanization of how its locally pronouced. But I think the spelling Rannamari would be more appropirate for it, and keep the current title as a redirect page? --Oblivious 23:30, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Rannamari vs Dragon of Silene

Motion l 06:59, 21 September 2006 (UTC)There is a high resemblance in the story of Rannamaari to a certain story of a dragon slain by a st george, according a book of tales called 'golden legend'.
