Image Description
An old Dayak Longhouse interior made entirely of Bornean Ironwood (Eusideroxylon zwageri) a seriously dense and robust hardwood that can last for centuries if well maintained. Most Longhouses or Lamin as they are known in Indonesian Borneo are constructed with this material and are no longer used for housing Dayak families but rather used for ceremonial purposes in modern times.
