Abstract:
This collection of papers is the fourth in a series of volumes on the work of the Comparative Austronesian Project. Each paper describes a specific Austronesian locality and offers an ethnographic account of the way in which social knowledge is vested, maintained and transformed in a particular landscape. The intention of the volume is to consider common patterns in the representation of place among Austronesian-speaking populations. (Verlagsangaben)
Note:
"Several of the papers - those by Eves, Fox, McWilliam and Pannell - were originally presented on 30 September 1992 at a panel of the Annual Conference of the Australian Anthropological Society held at The Australian National University." (Acknowledgements)
