		+
		+	==History==
		+	The golden naga first appears in [[NetHack 3.0.0]].
		+
		+	==Origin==
		+	{{Wikipedia\|Nāga}}
		+	The Nāga (feminine "Nagi") are a supernatural race of half-human half-serpent beings that can occasionally take human form, and hold cultural significance in the folkloric traditions of many South Asian and Southeast Asian cultures over the past two millennia. Nagas also appear in ''[[Dungeons & Dragons]]''.
		+
		+	Their most common depiction is that of a snake with a human head, which the default tileset of ''NetHack'' draws from—other iconographic depictions portray them as human from the waist up and snake from the waist down, wholly human with snakes on the heads and necks, or even as common serpents. Various south and southeastern Asian cultures also portray Nāgas as having multiple usually-serpentine heads.
		+
		+	==Encyclopedia entry==
		+	{{encyclopedia\|<poem>
		+	The naga is a mystical creature with the body of a snake and the head of a man or woman. They will fiercely protect the territory they consider their own. Some nagas can be forced to serve as guardians by a spellcaster of great power.
