Book Description

"Seventeen Years Among the Sea Dyaks of Borneo: A Record of Intimate Association with the Natives of the Bornean Jungles" by Edwin Herbert Gomes The Dyak are one of the native groups of Borneo. It is, in actuality, a loose term for over 200 riverine and hill-dwelling ethnic groups, located principally in the central and southern interior of Borneo, each with its own dialect, customs, laws, territory, and culture. This book was written to educate readers about this population by sharing the writer's experiences living and interacting with this fascinating and often unknown culture.
