The warrior dance is a traditional dance of Sarawak’s Iban people, known as the headhunters. The dance is typically performed during the harvest festival (Pesta Gawai). Accompanied by female dancers, the male dancer wore an elaborate headdress and carries a sword and a long decorated shield in the performance.
