This includes elaborate genealogical records, which usually go back about fifteen generations, although some purport to go back up to twenty-five. These genealogies (tusuts) are essentially records of who married and begat whom.

Most Ibans are located in the Malaysian state of Sarawak, a small portion in Sabah and West Malaysia.
