The Dayaks have a history in the ritual practice of headhunting, though the practice was thought to have died out in the early 20th century.එතකොට එවුන්වනෙ බං මරලා තියෙන්නෙBackgroundThe Sampit conflict in 2001 was not an isolated incident, as there had been previous incidents of violence between the Dayaks and the Madurese. The last major conflict occurred between December 1996 and January 1997, and resulted in more than 600 deaths.The Madurese first arrived in Borneo in 1930 under the transmigration program initiated by the Dutch colonial administration, and continued by the Indonesian government.In 2000, transmigrants made up 21% of the population in Central Kalimantan.The Dayaks are said to be dissatisfied with the increased competition coming from the more aggressive Madurese. New laws had allowed the Madurese to assume control of many commercial industries in the province, such as logging, mining, and plantations.There are a number of stories purportedly describing the incident that sparked the violence in 2001. One version claims that it was caused by an arson attack on a Dayak house. Rumours spread that the fire was caused by Madurese, and later a group of Dayaks began burning houses in a Madurese neighborhood.Professor Usop of the Dayak People's Association claims that the massacres by the Dayaks were in self-defense, after Dayaks were attacked. It was claimed that a Dayak was tortured and killed by a gang of Madurese following a gambling dispute in the nearby village of Kerengpangi on December 17, 2000.Another version claims that the conflict started in a brawl between students of different races at the same school.<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sampit_conflict" target="_blank">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sampit_conflict</a></blockquote>
