An attempt to find out more about tektite finds at Riam, Indonesian Borneo (Kalimantan), has uncovered a long-standing and complicated confusion about tektite localities in the southern portion of Borneo. It appears that the only authentic localities in the whole of Indonesian Borneo are at Martapura, Pelaihari, and the Sungei (River) Riam Kanan, all within 40 km of each other in the southeastern corner of the island, and all documented, mainly in Dutch and German works, by the early 20th century. Other localities mentioned and shown on maps in more recent French and English publications are mere phantoms resulting from a succession of misinterpretations of previous literature.
