Description

Funded by the Endangered Language Fund (ELF) Language Legacies Grant Program and led by Kayan researcher Roselind Wan and assisted by Sumathi Renganathan (Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS) and Inge Kral (Australian National University), this collection contains Uma Beluvuh (Baram) Kayan language and culture recordings, from Sarawak, North Borneo, Malaysia. The Uma Beluvuh Kayan language is spoken by approximately 2000 people living in Long Panai, a longhouse situated in a remote up-river location in the state of Sarawak in Malaysia. The 2019 recordings document Kayan cultural traditions, dance, song and verbal arts. There are no ceremonial restrictions, depositors wish to acknowledge that some of the people in the recording have passed away since the time that the recordings were made.
