I’ve heard of Borneo, but sadly geography is one of my weaker subjects…I had no idea where it was. Until now…
In case it ever comes up in conversation (
), here are a few facts about Borneo:
- Third largest island in the world (behind Greenland & New Guinea)
- Home to three (mmmm…magical number for Borneo?) countries – Malaysia, Brunei & Indonesia
- Almost 16 million inhabitants (as of 2005)
- Many unique tribes (collectively known as the Dayak) had little contact with modern society until recently and still lived a Stone Age life
Some Borneo tattoo facts:
- Men tattooed largely for “ornamental”
