| Abstracted summary |
Gusti Ngurah Batulepang is known as a historical figure who ruled the area around Batuan in the Seventeenth Century. According to Balinese dynastic genealogies, his family lost power and was scattered after Batulepang showed disrespect to a priest who asked him for food, and Batulepang threw him out, scattering rice on the ground. The priest cursed Batulepang, that his family would be dispersed, just as the rice was scattered.
