The Sea People i r terra australis 20 l The Sea People HO I AT I THE WHITSUNDAY ISLANDS, CENTRAL QUEENSLAND Pandanus Online Publications, found at the Pandanus Books web site, presents additional material relating to this book. www.pandanusbooks.com.au Terra Australis reports the results of archaeological and related research within the region south and east of Asia, though mainly Australia, New Guinea and Island Melanesia - lands that remained terra australis incognita to generations of prehistorians. Its subject is the settlement of the diverse environments in this isolated quarter of the globe by peoples who have maintained their discrete and traditional ways of life into the recent recorded or remembered past and at times into the observable present. Since the beginning of the series, the basic colour on the spine and cover has distinguished the regional distribution of topics as follows: ochre for Australia, green for New Guinea, red for South-East Asia and blue for the Pacific Islands. From 2001, issues with a gold spine will include conference proceedings, edited papers and monographs which in topic or desired format do not fit easily within the original arrangements. All volumes are numbered within the same series. List of volumes in Terra Australis Volume 1: Burrill Lake and Currarong: coastal sites in southern New South Wales. R.J.

It is also hoped that this research will contribute to a greater understanding and respect for the achievements of Aboriginal culture and society within the region and Australia generally. terra australis 20 vii Foreword BRYCE BARKER gained his Honours degree from the Department of Anthropology and Sociology in the University of Queensland in 1987. His Honours thesis focused on a faunal and taphonomic analysis of a newly excavated rock shelter, Narcurrer, located within a limestone sink-hole in south-eastern South Australia, close to the border with south-western Victoria. This project provided him with skills in the analysis of archaeological materials and an interest in issues of socio-cultural and environmental change and particularly their relevance to the mid- to late-Holocene period on the Australian mainland. With these questions in mind, he turned his attention to a new doctoral project centred on the tropical Whitsunday Islands off the central coast of Queensland in 1989. With luck on his side, he soon located and excavated a coastal rock shelter, Nara Inlet 1, situated on Hook Island, which has emerged as the key archaeological site and sequence for the region. This site, which forms the basis of this monograph, provided him with a continuous Holocene coastal sequence going back beyond 9000 years ago and spanning the time when the Whitsunday Islands were disjoined from the mainland by rising sea levels to assume their present form around 7000 years ago. He was now in a position to evaluate questions of change, including their socio­ cultural and palaeoenvironmental dimensions, throughout this period. Further excavation and analysis of a set of related sites in the islands expanded his data base even further. World debates surrounding 'change' within hunter-gatherer societies, past and present, became polarised in the 1980s, largely between environmental/biological and socio-cultural schools of thought. This was the case also in regard to Australian prehistory, where emphasis was placed on the primary role of environment, with socio-cultural factors relegated to a secondary place. Hunter-gatherers were constructed largely as 'passive' peoples in contrast to more 'dynamic' horticultural or agricultural societies. Contrasting Aboriginal Australia and its prehistory with that of nearby Papua New Guinea sustained this dichotomy in the Australasian region. In this case, the 'classic' divide between 'hunter' and 'farmer' shaped the core frame­ works guiding research. From early on, Papuans seemed to be moving towards 'environmental manipulation' and 'agriculture', while in Australia, 'change' was viewed largely as an adjustment to environmental variations. The result of the world debates that resounded throughout the 1990s and beyond largely transformed our concept of the 'hunter-gatherer'. Today, 'hunter-gatherers' include a very broad range of socio-cultural variation overlapping with horticultural I agricultural peoples and even with traditionally more 'complex' societies. The same could be said of their histories or 'prehistories'. Constructions of 'Aboriginal Australia' and its prehistory have been transformed in a similar way, expanding beyond the constraints of the past (including the colonial past), as is reflected in more recent research. All time periods are being examined in this way, including those of the more distant Pleistocene. terra australis 20 ix Bryce Barker's research was guided by and has contributed to questions emerging from these debates. He employs a broad perspective on issues of change throughout a prehistoric sequence spanning more than 9000 years. Also, he considers the emergence of more specialised marine societies on the Whitsunday Islands that more closely resemble the ethnohistorical peoples of the region. These socio-cultural processes were more clearly apparent during the late-Holocene period - the past few thousand years and, in particular, the past 600 years. This monograph, therefore, in many ways is pioneering research of complex issues of prehistoric change. Bryce Barker obtained his doctorate from the University of Queensland in 1996, which I supervised myself, as I had his prior degree. He is now Senior Lecturer at the University of Southern Queensland and has

  • Akoya Pearl Production from Hainan Province Is Less Than One Tonne (A
    1.2 Overview of the cultured marine pearl industry 13 Xuwen, harvest approximately 9-10 tonnes of pearls annually; Akoya pearl production from Hainan Province is less than one tonne (A. Wang, pers. comm., 2007). China produced 5-6 tonnes of marketable cultured marine pearls in 1993 and this stimulated Japanese investment in Chinese pearl farms and pearl factories. Pearl processing is done either in Japan or in Japanese- supported pearl factories in China. The majority of the higher quality Chinese Akoya pearls are exported to Japan. Additionally, MOP from pearl shells is used in handicrafts and as an ingredient Pearl farm workers clean and sort nets used for pearl oyster culture on a floating pontoon in Li’an Bay, Hainan Island, China. in cosmetics, while oyster meat is sold at local markets. India and other countries India began Akoya pearl culture research at the Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute (CMFRI) at Tuticorin in 1972 and the first experimental round pearl production occurred in 1973. Although a number of farms have been established, particularly along the southeastern coast, commercial pearl farming has not become established on a large scale (Upare, 2001). Akoya pearls from India generally have a diameter of less than 5-6 mm (Mohamed et al., 2006; Kripa et al., 2007). Halong Bay in the Gulf of Tonking in Viet Nam has been famous for its natural pearls for many centuries (Strack, 2006). Since 1990, more than twenty companies have established Akoya pearl farms in Viet Nam and production exceeded 1 000 kg in 2001. Akoya pearl culture has also been investigated on the Atlantic coast of South America (Urban, 2000; Lodeiros et al., 2002), in Australia (O’Connor et al., 2003), Korea (Choi and Chang, 2003) and in the Arabian Gulf (Behzadi, Parivak and Roustaian, 1997).

De Pretis 30, 95039, Trecastagni, Catania, Italy; e-mail: [email protected] *Corresponding author ABSTRACT The earliest reported alien species that entered the Mediterranean after only nine years from the inauguration of the Suez Canal was “Meleagrina” sp., which was subsequently identified as the Gulf pearl-oyster, Pinctada radiata (Leach, 1814) (Bivalvia Pteriidae). Thereafter, an increasing series of records of this species followed. In fact, nowadays it can be considered a well-established species throughout the Mediterranean basin. Since the Red Sea isthmus was considered to be the only natural way of migration, nobody has ever doubted about the name to be assigned to the species, P. radiata, since this was the only Pinctada Röding, 1798 cited in literature for the Mediterranean Sea. Taxonomy of Pinctada is complicated since it lacks precise constant morphological characteristics to distinguish one species from the oth- ers. Thus, distribution and specimens location are particularly important since different species mostly live in different geographical areas. Some researchers also used a molecular phylogenetic approach, but the results were discordant.

  • 82 3.3.4.4.3 Ecogeographic Studies of the Cranial Shape The
    82 3.3.4.4.3 Ecogeographic studies of the cranial shape The measurement of the human head of both the living and dead has long been a matter of interest to a variety of professions from artists to physicians and latterly to anthropologists (for a review see Spencer 1997c). The shape of the cranium, in particular, became an important factor in schemes of racial typology from the late 18th Century (Blumenbach 1795; Deniker 1898; Dixon 1923; Haddon 1925; Huxley 1870). Following the formulation of the cranial index by Retzius in 1843 (see also Sjovold 1997), the classification of humans by skull shape became a positive fashion. Of course such classifications were predicated on the assumption that cranial shape was an immutable racial trait. However, it had long been known that cranial shape could be altered quite substantially during growth, whether due to congenital defect or morbidity or through cultural practices such as cradling and artificial cranial deformation (for reviews see (Dingwall 1931; Lindsell 1995). Thus the use of cranial index of racial identity was suspect. Another nail in the coffin of the Cranial Index's use as a classificatory trait was presented in Coon (1955), where he suggested that head form was subject to long term climatic selection. In particular he thought that rounder, or more brachycephalic, heads were an adaptation to cold. Although it was plausible that the head, being a major source of heat loss in humans (Porter 1993), could be subject to climatic selection, the situation became somewhat clouded when Beilicki and Welon demonstrated in 1964 that the trend towards brachycepahlisation was continuous between the 12th and 20th centuries in East- Central Europe and thus could not have been due to climatic selection (Bielicki & Welon 1964).
