'''Trunyan''' or '''Terunyan''' is a [[Balinese people|Balinese]] village (''banjar'') located on the eastern shore of [[Mount Batur|Lake Batur]], a [[caldera lake]] in [[Bangli Regency]], central [[Bali]], Indonesia. The village is one of the most notable homes of the [[Bali Aga]] people, the others being the villages of [[Tenganan]] and [[Sambiran]]. Trunyan is notable for its peculiar treatment of dead bodies, in which they are placed openly on the ground, simply covered with cloth and bamboo canopies, and left to decompose. The influence of a nearby tree is said to remove the putrid smell of the corpses.
