Rannamaari is a Maldivian myth or legend which chronicles the Maldivian people's conversion from Buddhism to Islam. Rannamaari is made of two words. Ranna (almighty) and Maar (ocean in ancient Dhivehi language). Rannamaari means God of sea. According to Ibn Batuta's version of the story, Rannamaari, a sea demon, haunted the people of the Maldives and had to be appeased monthly with the sacrifice of a virgin. On the last day of every month, the king would choose a girl to sacrifice and keep her in an isolated temple for one night. The girl would be found the next day dead.
