Dalem Bekung

Ida Dalem Pemayun, also known as Dalem Pemayun Bekung or Sri Aji Pemayun Kepakisan, was the fifth King of Bali from the Kepakisan dynasty who ruled the Gelgel Kingdom from 1551 to 1582 AD. He was the son of Dalem Waturenggong and the heir to the Gelgel Kingdom throne. He ascended the throne at a young age, and the early years of his reign were marked by the rebellion of Gusti Batanjeruk, which nearly ended the rule of the Kepakisan dynasty in Bali. Local sources describe him as a less capable leader than his younger brother, and he was also known as Bekung (without an heir). Following turmoil and scandal during his reign, he decided to abdicate and passed the throne to his younger brother, who would later take the title Dalem Seganing.
