The Temiar are a Senoic group indigenous to the Malay Peninsula and one of the largest of the eighteen Orang Asli groups of Malaysia.

They reside mainly in Perak, Pahang and Kelantan.

Their total population is estimated at around 40,000 to 120,000, most of which live on the fringes of the rainforest, while a small number have been urbanised.

[citation needed] Temiar are traditionally animists.

[2] The ceremonial Sewang dance is performed by the Temiar people as part of their folk beliefs.
