Kenyah

The Kenyah are more than forty related Dayak sub-groups of interior north-eastern Borneo, from the Baram and Rajang headwaters of Sarawak to the Kayan highlands of Kalimantan, whose oral traditions locate their origin on the remote Usun Apau plateau. They lived in riverside longhouses, farmed hill rice by slash-and-burn and followed the animist Adat Pu'un rites.
