Abstract:
Scholarly writings of the indigenous peoples that inhabitated the north-western part of Borneo of what is presently the East Malaysian state Sarawak are fairly extensive. Ethnographic works and anthropological studies dominate the scholarly literature of the various ethnic groups. Writings of the historical development of the various ethnic groups are unevenly distributed; some of the minority communities are wholly neglected in the literature. This paper will focus on the historiography of the various indigenous communities in Sarawak for the period from 1945. A general overview of historical works of the various indigenous groups will be presented in an attempt to identify the lacunae in the literature and to suggest possible avenues of future research.
