Pumpkins?

Pumpkins originate from the western hemisphere, so how is it possible this myth involves them when it takes place in 1489, 3 years before Columbus' journey? I'm guessing it's a translation error, although it could possibly be that the myth was devised comparatively recently after Balinese became familiar with pumpkins. --86.142.170.168 (talk) 03:40, 25 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
