An artifact believed to be a "supernatural object" belong to an Iban warrior "Mata'ari" a well-known leader of the Iban community in Borneo, an ethnic tribe also commonly known as "head hunters". The artifact is called "Rajut" has been in the family for more than ten generation and it is used for protection giving supernatural protections and power to the owner and beholder. Hundreds of skulls or heads were said to be the captured and killed but only few prominent leaders "heads" are still with the family. Originated in batang Kapuas, Batang Ai, Sarawak, Mata'ari made an expidition with hundreds of his followers to Batang Rajang and Batang Baleh and up to Ulu Singut, the utmost part of baleh river near the Indonesia Sarawak border.
