They comprise over 40 sub-ethnic groups, of whom around 75% are Christian and 15% Muslim while a minority adhere to traditional beliefs. They are predominantly wet rice and hill rice cultivators and also rear water buffalo. Their various languages belong to the Dusunic family their ancient beliefs are based on the premise that everything has life – rocks, trees, and rivers are all living things.

The Kadazandusun are noted for their use of bobohizan (priestesses) for mediating with the spirit world. This is particularly important at Pesta Kaamatan, a celebration to honour the Rice Spirit (Bambaazon or Bambarayon) and give thanks for a bountiful harvest which falls at the end of May. The bobohizan conduct all of the necessary rituals, both in the rice paddies and the villages, and also select the festival queen or Undue Ngadau (Zenith of the Sun), who represents all that is virtuous in Kadazandusun womanhood.

The Kadazandusun are well known for their basketry and musical instruments made of bamboo, as well as finely wrought brass gongs. The Rungus sub-group produce beautiful beaded necklaces, whose patterns recount ancient legends, with human figures picked out with bright hues in the beadwork.
