1. Dayang Laing was created by God Almighty from a big piece of gold called “Tengkulas Batu Mas” which he placed at the eastern corner of the world surrounded by desert. Her first husband was Bunsu Ribut (the Wind God) and begot the Seven Sisters (Bintang Banyak or Pleidaes). Her second husband was Abu Tinggang the son of Petara Semarugah (god who have authority on all land).

Ci.2 Jelenggai was a Sumatran ancestor. He was a sailor and an adventurer. He married the youngest of the Seven Sisters (Bunsu Bintang Banyak) – the daughter of Dayang Laing and Bunsu Ribut – and begot Selamuda. He taught the Iban on how to use the movement of Pleidaes to determine their padi planting season.

Ci.3 Selamuda married Dayang Manis Muka, the daughter of the Boar Chief of the animal Spirit world. They begot Begeri who learned how to use pig liver to discern the future fate of human being during festivals, such as mudas, when farmers seek indication regarding omen heard during the clearing season of the year. His descendant is still using this tradition nowadays.

Ci.7.1 Patinggi Gurang was a Sumatran ancestor who came from Sumatra and landed at Kayong in Kalimantan Barat where he finally settled.

Ci.8.1 Patinggi Ngadan was one of first pioneers who came from Kayong to settle in the middle Layar river in the Saribas District where he died and was buried at Lupa Cemetry near Dabok, Layar.

Ci.11.1 Saang was a chief who migrated from Layar to settle in the Lower Paku. Due to his arrival, the lower Paku and Upper Paku were made into two administrative region long before the arrival of the Rajah Brooke. When he died, he was succeeded as chief of Lower Paku and Anyut region by his son-in-law Uyut “Bedilang Besi” the husband of his eldest daughter Nangku.

Ci.12.12 Malang “Pengarah” married Lika (a daughter of Saang and younger sister of Nangku) was driven away from Ulu Anyut by his brother-in-law, Uyut “Bedilang Besi” and other relatives. As a result, Malang and his family settled at Serudit Stream in the Lower Paku. His descendant were the famous warrior under Chief Linggir “Mali Lebu” and war leader Chulo “Tarang” who later migrated to Krian Region in the Kalaka Dustrict. The reason for the expulsion was unknown.

Ci.16.122 Penghulu Saang “Rumpang” was also a Nakhoda who led his followers, together with Budin “Gerasi” and his followers, bought valuable jars in Sabah.

Ci.13.212 Mawar Biak “Ragai Ngerang” was a war leader who lived at Ulu Entanak near the town of Betong in the Saribas District. He died in the enemy’s country while leading his fighters in war.

Ci.17.2122 Chief Unggang “Lebor Menoa” was the invader of the old Malay Village at Muara Tebas where he and his warriors killed many enemies. He also guarded the South China Sea coast from the mouth of Saribas River westward as far as Santubong Delta from frequent invasions of the Illanun and Sulok Pirates before the arrival of James Brooke to Sarawak. His sons Luta, Mulok & Ketit perished while sailing in search of Tuchong (Hugh Shell valued by people in ancient days for making armlets) to the Beliton Island. He was also the originator of the modern day dowry of the Saribas Iban wedding custom. His grandson Bunyau was the father of Panglima Bakir and the brother of Maoh who were the first Saribas Iban Chief to colloborate with the Government of James Brooke in building a fort at Betong in 1858. This unwelcomed action angered Ajie, Nanang & Luyoh (sons of OKP Dana “Bayang” of Padeh) and resulted in hatred among them and this led to the later’s attack on the Fort and Ajie’s death at Sungai Langit. This quarell continued until after Nanang & Luyoh’s surrender at Sadok Mountain in 1861 after the Third Sadok Expedition.
