The images are part of the large, and for the most part undocumented, collection of photographs from the archive of the Sarawak Museum in Kuching.

The photographs illustrate aspects of the way of life and the traditional culture and customs of the Orang Ulu from the 1950s onwards. They are family photographs, historical records, ethnographic documents of local culture and traditions.
