Not Canon camera ah. Sabahans know it is a Kadazan Dusun custom to pay dowry with buffalo.

What if you offer a bronze cannon instead? Yes, you can, but in 13th century. I find this interesting “bride price” in the museum inside Sabah Trade Centre.

Just read the label if you don’t believe me. Probably bronze was a precious metal in the past, so you could use it like money.

But I am curious how they used it. Place it in front of the house as a display of wealth? Or melt it to make sword or other stuffs?
