Primitive Art Bibliographies Primitive Art Bibliographies The Library The Museum of Primitive Art 15 West 54 Street New York 19, New York NO. IV 1965 BIBLIOGRAPHY OF SEPIK DISTRICT ART ANNOTATED FOR ILLUSTRATIONS, PART 1 by DOUGLAS NEWTON BIBLIOGRAPHY OF SEPIK DISTRICT ART ANNOTATED FOR ILLUSTRATIONS, PART 1 by Douglas Newton The Museum of Primitive Art This is a working list of material on the visual arts in the Sepik District of New Guinea published up to 31 December 1964, its purpose being the provision of a guide to the very considerable amount of documentation already in print. It does not ad­ here strictly to the administrative boundaries of the District: some items on the coastal area to the east of the Ramu have been included, since these are obviously stylistically related to work from the District itself. The first part, printed here, is a listing of individual documents, each followed by notes on the illustra­ tions it includes. The second part, to appear in the near future, will be an index, by provenience and class of object, to these notes. The entries are of two main kinds. The first consists of books and articles, whether illustrated or not, specifically devoted to the area. Here I have gone beyond the limitations implied by "the arts", and have included some works primarily dealing with general ethnology. To some extent this is unavoidable, owing to the authors' methods of presenting their material; but I have added rather generously to this cate­ gory in the hope that some items may provide background, or side-lights, for the sub­ ject. More than this is not the function of the present compilation, in view of the existence of the Sepik District Anthropological Bibliography. The other kind of entry, by far the larger, includes books, articles, catalogues and ephemera not mainly concerned with the area but including illustrations of Sepik Dis­ trict art. These entries have been compiled on a catch-all basis, with the assump­ tion that what the student of any particular aspect will find most useful is the max­ imum quantity of material, regardless of its quality. Inevitably there is a good deal of duplication; quite a number of old war-horses reappear several times. A few instances in which reproductions have been duplicated are silently ignored, but on the whole my tendency has been to incorporate as much as possible. Book reviews and bibliographies and separately published maps have been excluded. Most titles are followed by listings of the illustrations they include. There are, however, significant exceptions which include the fundamental works of Bateson (28), Mead (19M, an|3- a few others. Above all, it would be not only impossible to analyse the hundreds of illustrations in Reche (259) but in a sense unnecessary, as the book remains the basis for any study of material culture in the lower and middle Sepik areas. In the listings themselves, words enclosed in square brackets CJ are my attributions, those not so enclosed being the authors'. In a number of cases I have seen museum or collection records on the basis of which these bracketed attributions have been made, in others they are derived from comparison of publications. Many are not only such amplifications, but expressions of my personal opinion which sometimes conflict with the original author's: I have not attempted to distinguish between these kinds of attributions. The majority are not critical; they are rough-and-ready fingerpost- ing to research, not a completed example of it. Hence a certain overlapping of terms between "Lower Sepik" (abbreviated as L.S.) and "Coastal Sepik", for instance, and few refinements beyond "latmul" and "Tchambuli" as amplifications of "Middle Sepik" (M.S.). However, I have in all cases preferred village names, where they are estab­ lished, to those of tribes or areas. Reference to the Index should clear up any problems arising from this scheme; as it also should the difficulties caused by the use of variant place-names. The location of each illustration is indicated by the abbreviations; pcage:, figcure:, abbcteilung:, plcate:. Objects given exhibition or auction numbers are assigned as: item cno. follows:. These indicators are only given at the beginning of a series of such; thus all numbers after: pi will be plates, up to e.g.: fig after which numbers will denote figures. A subsequent: pi indicates that plate numbers are now resumed. 2 The basis for the first version of this list was Taylor's Pacific Bibliography. I have also drawn on the continuing Bibliographie de l'Oceanie in the Journal de la Societe des Oceanistes^ (many items in which I have been unable to trace), the Peabody Museum Library Catalogue and the Sepik District Anthropological Bibliog­ raphy. I am indebted also to Professor Douglas Fraser for several references. The great majority of the entries have been checked with the originals, but a very few have been lifted sight unseen from these previous bibliographies. Lengthy as the result may seem, by its very nature such an attempt as this is bound to have omissions. Since the present bibliographies are intended to be part of a continuing series, information about such omissions, and about inaccuracies in the entries, is requested and will be most gratefully received. 1.

Craig unless otherwise attributed I guess I was destined to be a walker from an early age ̶ I may have got that from my father. Boot camp, c.1941 Martin Place, Sydney, c.1941 Because my father fought at Sattelberg in the hills west of Finschhafen in 1943, I became fascinated by New Guinea and read avidly. After studying anthropology at the University of Sydney I went to PNG as an Education Officer in 1962. I asked to be posted to Telefomin. Languages of Central New Guinea I lived at Telefomin 1962-65. In 1963-64, Bryan Cranstone, British Museum, was based at Tifalmin west of Telefomin to research and collect items of material culture. His method of documenting things that he collected drew my attention to the house boards and shields of the region. He became my mentor. I was fortunate to witness the last of the male initiation ceremonies – dakasalban candidates with sponsor at left, otban at right. In 1964, I collected about 320 items of material culture for the Australian Museum, supported with photographs, and began a survey of all house boards and shields in the wider region, extended in 1967. This resulted in a Masters Thesis in 1969 and a booklet in 1988. At Bolovip, the board photographed by Champion in 1926 (left) was still there in 1967 (top right) but had been discarded by 1981.

BARNETT College of Marine and Environmental Sciences, James Cook University, Townsville, Qld, Australia TropWATER (Centre for Tropical Water and Aquatic Ecosystem Research), James Cook University, Townsville, Qld, Australia Abstract The Niugini black bass, Lutjanus goldiei Bloch, is an estuarine and freshwater fish species endemic to New Guinea and the surrounding islands. It is the focus of a growing sport fishing industry that has the potential to provide long-standing benefits to local people. Plantation agriculture, mining and logging are expanding in many catchments where L. goldiei is found, creating the potential for these industries to impact on L. goldiei and the environments it relies on. Understanding of the current status of the species, including its biology, ecology and distribution, is essential for its sustainable management.

  • The Freshwater Ichthyofauna of Bougainville Island, Papua New Guinea!
    Pacific Science (1999), vol. 53, no. 4: 346-356 © 1999 by University of Hawai'i Press. All rights reserved The Freshwater Ichthyofauna of Bougainville Island, Papua New Guinea! J. H. POWELL AND R. E. POWELL2 ABSTRACT: Tailings disposal from the Bougainville Copper Limited open-cut porphyry copper mine on Bougainville Island, Papua New Guinea (1972-1989) impacted the ichthyofauna of the Jaba River, one of the largest rivers on the island. To assess the 'extent of this impact, comparative freshwater ichthyologi­ cal surveys were conducted in five rivers on the island during the period 1975­ 1988. Fifty-eight fish species were recorded, including one introduction, Oreo­ chromis mossambicus. The icthyofauna is dominated by euryhaline marine spe­ cies consistent with that of the Australian region, but more depauperate. There are more than 100 species present on mainland New Guinea that are absent from Bougainville streams. Oreochromis mossambicus was the most abundant species in the sampled streams, accounting for 45% of the catch. The most abundant native fishes were the mainly small Gobiidae and Eleotridae. There were few native fish of potential value as food and these were restricted to an eleotrid gudgeon (Ophieleotris aporos), tarpon (Megalops cyprinoides), eel (An­ guilla marmorata), and snappers (Lutjanus argentimaculatus and Lutjanus fus­ cescens). Fish production in the rivers is limited by the morphology of the streams and the depauperate ichthyofauna. Fish yield from the Jaba River in its premining state is estimated to have ranged from 7 to 12 t/yr. The popula­ tion living in the Jaba ,catchment in 1988 (approximately 4,600 persons) shared this resource, resulting in an extremely low per-capita fish consumption rate of less than 3 kg/yr.

  • The Language of String Figure-Making in a Sepik Society in Papua New Guinea
    Vol. 14 (2020), pp. 598–641 http://nflrc.hawaii.edu/ldc http://hdl.handle.net/10125/24964 Revised Version Received: 2 Aug 2020 Talking about strings: The language of string figure-making in a Sepik society in Papua New Guinea Darja Hoenigman The Australian National University The practice of making string figures, often called cat’s cradle, can be found all over the world and is particularly widespread in Melanesia. It has been studied by anthropologists, linguists and mathematicians. For the latter, the ordered series of moves and the resultant string figures represent cognitive processes that form part of a practice of recreational mathematics. Modern anthropology is interested in the social and cultural aspects of string figures, including their associations with other cultural practices, with the local mythology and songs. Despite this clear link to language, few linguists have studied string figures, and those who have, have mainly focused on the songs and formulaic texts that accompany them. Based on a systematic study of string figures among the Awiakay, the inhabitants of Kanjimei village in the Sepik region of Papua New Guinea, with six hours of transcribed video recordings of the practice, this paper argues that studying string figure-making can be an important aspect of language documentation – notjust through the recording and analysis of the accompanying oral literature, but also as a tool for documenting other speech genres through recordings of the naturalistic speech that surrounds string figure-making performances. In turn, analysing the language associated with string figure-making offers valuable insights into the meaning of string figures as understood by their makers.
