CHAPTER ...V History IN the seventh century the Emperor of China would seem to have been overlord of at least part of Borneo, for there are records of tribute paid by Phala, on the north-east of the island, to China. Two centuries later there was a considerable Chinese colonisation, probably chiefly in Brunei, where the people still show traces of Chinese ancestry. In 1575 there was again a large immigra- tion from China, and through the latter part of the sixteenth, and on through the seventeenth century, a flourishing trade, especially in edible birds'-nests and certain woods, was carried on between the two countries.
