Get to know

Niah National Park is located on the Niah River, which is about 3km away from the small town, Batu Niah. In 1958, the park was first gazette as a National Historic Monument and in 1974, a total of 3100 hectares of surrounding rainforest and limestone hills were included to form the National Park. The discovery of the oldest modern human remains in Southeast Asia were found at Niah, making the park one of the most important archaeological sites in the world.

Picture show the map of National Park and the location of trails and caves.

The two main caves in Niah National Park are The Great Cave of Niah and The Painted Cave, with many interesting rock formation and magnificent view inside the caves. The painted cave is popular for its ancient cave painting. Besides the archaeology, the cave is swarming with bats and swiftlets. In addition, the park has two well-marked walking trails, Bukit Kasut Trail and Madu Trail.

While walking in these two trails, you will be able to enjoy a majestic rainforest with abundant plant and animal life. This national park has a visitor centre, cafeteria and good accommodation that consist of chalets units and hostel style-rooms.

Earliest phase of cave occupation is referred to as the Palaeolithic (old stone age) and occurs on the late Pleistocene epoch. The Pleistocence ends with the beginning of Holocene epoch around 10,000 years ago. At Niah, the human use of caves changes from a location of intermittent use by mobile foragers during the early Holocene and become a major repository of the dead around 4,000 years ago. At the same time, there is evidence for the use of pottery as funerary gifts and also burial jars, with much later evidence for imported metals, ceramics and glass.

There are artifacts and cave drawings found in the caves that showed that they have their own unique and beliefs. The death-ships have been dated as ranging between 1 AD and 780 AD, although local Penan folklore tells of the use of death ship burials as late as the 19th century [1]. Pictures below show wooden boat death ship (up) and cave drawing (down).

4. Niah Cave is also called as 'Hell Trench. This name was given by Harrison's excavators because of the heat and humidity in the particular part of cave's entrance. And you can feel the heat, especially in the afternoon when the sun shone directly overhead [4]. Interestingly, this phenomena was said is one of the cause of rocking process in the archeological establishment (picture below).

5.Why Niah Cave is called The Great Cave? This is because Niah Cave covers an area of 11 hectares as large as 13 football fields! And the cave is also remarkable for the millions of bats and swiftlets. At after 60m high and 250m wide, it is one of the world's most spectacular cave entrances[1]!

A longhouse is a whole village of a community under one long roof that may be consists of 20 families or more! How long and how big is the longhouse? Come and experience yourself!

The archaeologist also found cooking utensil made out of bone, stone and clay. These artifacts are said to be buried with the dead in the boat-like coffin.

8.The Painted Cave is named after the red hematite clay painting of human-like figures drawn on the rocks. These painting dates back at least 1000 years! The painting is located near a big burial ground and the detailed-painting was depicting the boat journey the dead into the afterlife [1].

9. The passage at the back of the Great Cave leads to a large chamber known as the Padang, where shafts of sunlight stream down from large holes in the cave roof to iluminate the bizzare rock formation in the Burnt Cave. T his is another excellent spot for taking photos.

10. . During the rainforest walk, you will be able to enjoy and witness the beauty of the tropical rainforest. There are diverse species of flora and fauna can be seen. During morning and if you are lucky, you will be seeing these small little creatures along the plankways that will stop you from continue walking and stopped by to take picture!
