With an external structure inspired by a house in Normandy, the Sarawak Museum is noted as one of the finest in Asia. It has an excellent collection of Borneon ethnological and archeological artifacts and a permanent exhibition of native arts and crafts. Many of the exhibits are from the collection of Alfred Russell Wallace, a naturalist who, with Charles Darwin, was a co-founder of the theory of evolution. |
An annex to the museum has Chinese porcelain and galleries devoted to the way of life of the various tribes. There is also a reconstruction of the Niah caves where evidence of human remains was uncovered some 40,000 years ago. |
