The main aim is to continue to highlight one of the outstanding features of the Kelabit Highlands, which is its ‘monumental’ landscape consisting of various types of stone monuments and landscape modifications. This exhibition is held as a mean of sharing the research findings on the megaliths to the local community as well as to test the hypothesis on the carved figure by getting feedbacks from the local community and visitors.
