Murut Nabai -Intro

Hello again, before I forgotten all about the stories from my granny (decease) so I blog in here the stories for my younger generation to read or anyone love to know.

Let me introduce to you my great great grandfather on my father side was came from the Murut Nabai Tribe from Kg. Keningau, Keningau. Murut Nabai also known as tribal Murut Nabai from flat ground hinterland at North Borneo as well (head hunter). They good hunter at big forest too and practice witch craft (those old days, now mostly already having they own religious and not longer practice the witch craft anymore).

She said they wedding was decided by they parents as young age (cant recalled) and by these day they falling in love and married with they choose bride/groom. That was another stories to be tell.

Murut Nabai these day famous with the traditional dance with bamboo called "Mangunatip" and "Manggalang".  From my granny stories story (before she pass away) the dancer was perform during certain ceremony like the wedding she said. The origin Manggalang dance was perform by old folks on the tribe, not the younger generations. As the Mangunatip dance was dance by the younger generation as were be headed by patriot of the tribe with his real sharp long knives. 

Oh well, that for today that I can recall.. I can't tell your more than that. To be continues next time..

XOXOXO
