    * omslag Dutch Ships in Tropical:DEF 18-08-09 13:30 Pagina 1 dutch ships in tropical waters robert parthesius The end of the 16th century saw Dutch expansion in Asia, as the Dutch East India Company (the VOC) was fast becoming an Asian power, both political and economic. By 1669, the VOC was the richest private company the world had ever seen. This landmark study looks at perhaps the most important tool in the Company’ trading – its ships. In order to reconstruct the complete shipping activities of the VOC, the author created a unique database of the ships’ movements, including frigates and other, hitherto ignored, smaller vessels. Parthesius’s research into the routes and the types of ships in the service of the VOC proves that it was precisely the wide range of types and sizes of vessels that gave the Company the ability to sail – and continue its profitable trade – the year round. Furthermore, it appears that the VOC commanded at least twice the number of ships than earlier historians have ascertained. Combining the best of maritime and social history, this book will change our understanding of the commercial dynamics of the most successful economic organization of the period. robert parthesius Robert Parthesius is a naval historian and director of the Centre for International Heritage Activities in Leiden. dutch ships in amsterdam tropical waters studies in the dutch golden age The Development of 978 90 5356 517 9 the Dutch East India Company (voc) Amsterdam University Press Shipping Network in Asia www.aup.nl dissertation 1595-1660 Amsterdam University Press Dutch Ships in Tropical Waters Dutch Ships in Tropical Waters The development of the Dutch East India Company (VOC) shipping network in Asia - Robert Parthesius Founded in as part of the Faculty of Humanities of the University of Amsterdam (UvA), the Amsterdam Centre for the Study of the Golden Age (Amsterdams Centrum voor de Studie van de Gouden Eeuw) aims to promote the history and culture of the Dutch Republic during the ‘long’ seventeenth century (c.

This is an article about some of the first voyages of the Dutch to the Far East. The background of these operations can be found in section 1 Introduction: “The origin of the Kingdom of the Netherlands”. Dirk Teeuwen MSc, Holland 1 Then our visitor could get an idea about the successes and the troubles regarding a selection from what we know about the first Dutch shipments to the Far East (section 2 etc.). I summarized my comments in italics at the end of each section continually. So that the reader can simply hop from one section to the next one in case he thinks that my comments are not so interesting. Which is not so; well, I mean, usually not so. At the end of the article I placed a list of sources and acknowledgements as well as a complete survey of these first shipments. It was my endeavour to compose my article in a most readable way.

    COURSE HANDBOOK SOUTH AFRICAN FIELD COURSE Offered through AHKR institute, University of Bergen CAPE TOWN SOUTH AFRICA 2009 Compiled by Prof. Christopher Henshilwood & Karen van Niekerk 1 CONTENTS Description Page Part 1: Introduction to the Cape, South Africa Part 2: Geology and Palaeo-environment of the De Hoop region Part 3: Ethnohistory of the southern Cape Part 4: Holocene Archaeology of the Southern Cape Part 5: Mammals & Reptiles Part 6: Shellfish & Fish Part 7: Cultural artefacts Part 8: Method of Excavation Part 9: Recommended Reading List 2 Part 1: Introduction Brief History & Prehistory of the Western Cape People have occupied the Western Cape for more than a million years; hence the region boasts a rich archaeological past. For the last 100,000 years or so it was probably the home of San (Bushmen) hunter gatherers. The San left a rich heritage of rock paintings portraying their religious beliefs but also a pictorial account of their world, including the arrival, about 2000 years ago, of Khoekoe herders with sheep and cattle. Because the Western Cape is a winter rainfall area it was unsuited to the summer crops of Bantu speaking agro-pastoralists and when the Dutch East India Company established a refreshment station at the Cape in the 1600s it was occupied only by the San and Khoe. In their art, the San depicted the arrival of the Dutch as well. However, these indigenous people of ancient descent could not compete with the technology of European settlers. In time, they lost their long-held access to grazing and hunting land and by the early 1700's, decimated by poverty and disease; most laboured in the employ of the DEIC or local farmers.
