Aone van Engelenhoven Leiden University For Mika Chlenov, the 20th Century Pioneer of Malukan linguistics. 1.Introduction Damar Island constitutes a district of its own in the new Regency of Maluku Barat Daya („Southwest Maluku‟) that was carved out of the Regency of Maluku Tenggara Barat („West Southeast Maluku‟) in the East Indonesian province of Maluku. To its North it borders onto the southwestern district of the islands of Teun, Nila and Serua in the Central Maluku Regency, whereas to its South is borders onto the Pulau-pulau Terselatan („Southernmost Islands‟) District of which Damar used to be part up till 2008. Although Damar is a prominent narrative landmark in the oral traditions of Southwest Maluku (Josselin de Jong 1937, ms, Van Engelenhoven 2004b) and Lautem District in the republic of East Timor (Gomes 1972), it appears not to be part of Nuspaikra-Rapïatatra („Conducted Islands – Arranged Lands), the regional trade network.

The origins of isolating word structure in eastern Timor Antoinette Schapper Lacito-CNRS This paper addresses the issue of isolating word structure and its origins in the Austronesian and Papuan languages of eastern Timor. McWhorter (2007) claims that both families of languages evidence extensive loss of grammatical complexity as a result of “interrupted transmission” due to significant non-native acquisition. I refute McWhorter’s assertion that the eastern Timor languages are not “normal” through a detailed exposition of their morphological complexities. Whilst recognising that they are isolating leaning, I argue that there is nothing “unnatural” about the grammars of these languages and that phonological changes within the Timorese Sprachbund provide sufficient explanation of their morphological profiles. Keywords: Timor languages, phonological erosion, irregularity, lexicalisation, isolating word structure, convergence 1.

Printed on acid-free paper Springer is part of Springer Science+Business Media (www.springer.com) Foreword In this era of globalization, the prefix ‘bio’ is widely used in words such asbiotech - nology, biodiversity, biosafety, biosecurity, bioimperialism, biopiracy, biodemoc- racy, biocide and bioterrorism. New terms will no doubt continue to emerge. The emergence of these ‘bio’ words is a sign of the importance of biological resources in national development and in competition between nations. Nations that can effec- tively control and manage biological resources in a sustainable manner will survive and develop in this era of globalization.

  • Wallacea, a Linguistic Area
    ANTOINETTE SCHAPPER1 Wallacea, a Linguistic Area Introduction “Wallacea” typically refers to a zoogeographical area constituting a transition zone between Sundaland (the Malay Peninsula, Sumatra, Borneo, Java, and Bali) and Sahul (Australia and New Guinea) (see Map 1, Dickerson 1928). Biological Wallacea includes Sulawesi, Lombok, Sumbawa, Flores, Sumba, Timor, Halmahera, Buru, Seram, and many smaller islands of eastern Indonesia and independent Timor-Leste (Map 2). Defined by its mixing of faunal types from the Southeast Asian and Australian areas, it is demarcated in the West by the Wallace Line and in the East by the Lydekker Line, and cross-cut by the Weber Line. Wallacea is well known as an area of mega- biodiversity with very high numbers of species found nowhere else in the world. For instance, it is home to over 10,000 plant species and more than 1,100 terrestrial vertebrate species, many endemic (Coates & Bishop 1997, Myers et al. 2000, Schulte et al. 2003). 1. Koninklijk Instituut voor Taal-, Land- en Volkenkunde & Universität zu Köln. 2. This paper was first presented at the Workshop on Migrations and Transfers in Prehistory: Asian and Oceanic Ethnolinguistic Phylogeography, University of Bern, 28-31 July 2014. I am thankful for the very helpful comments of Lawrence A. Reid on that occasion. The paper owes much to the work of other linguists, in particular that of Mark Donohue, Ger Reesink and Malcolm Ross; their work has significantly inspired and informed this one. All errors are of course my own. Financial support from a Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research VENI grant and a Volkswagen Foundation DoBeS grant is gratefully acknowledged.
