Banda Islands, Indonesia INSULARITY AND ADAPTATION INVESTIGATING THE ROLE OF EXCHANGE AND INTER-ISLAND INTERACTION IN THE BANDA ISLANDS, INDONESIA Emily J. Peterson A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2015 Reading Committee: Peter V. Lape, Chair James K. Feathers Benjamin Marwick Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Anthropology ©Copyright 2015 Emily J. Peterson University of Washington Abstract Insularity and Adaptation Investigating the role of exchange and inter-island interaction in the Banda Islands, Indonesia Emily J. Peterson Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Peter V. Lape Department of Anthropology Trade and exchange exerted a powerful force in the historic and protohistoric past of Island Southeast Asian communities. Exchange and interaction are also hypothesized to have played an important role in the spread of new technologies and lifestyles throughout the region during the Neolithic period. Although it is clear that interaction has played an important role in shaping Island Southeast Asian cultures on a regional scale, little is known about local histories and trajectories of exchange in much of the region. This dissertation aims to improve our understanding of the adaptive role played by exchange and interaction through an exploration of change over time in the connectedness of island communities in the Banda Islands, eastern Indonesia. Connectedness is examined by measuring source diversity for two different types of archaeological materials. Chemical characterization of pottery using LA-ICP-MS allows the identification of geochemically different paste groups within the earthenware assemblages of two Banda Islands sites. Source diversity measures are employed to identify differences in relative connectedness between these sites and changes over time. Similarly, stable and radiogenic i isotope ratios (δ13C, δ18O, 87Sr/86Sr, 206Pb/204Pb, 207Pb/204Pb, 208Pb/204Pb) are used to identify source groups and quantify source diversity for pigs reared in different locations. Increases in connectedness were expected during periods of increased environmental variability around 3000 BP and 2000 BP, although there is considerable disparity in the timing of these climate shifts based on paleoclimate proxy records from the eastern and western Pacific. At Banda Islands site PA1, connectedness was relatively high at initial occupation approximately 3500 BP and peaked ~500 years later. A correlation with an increase in El Niño frequency around this time is possible but cannot be confirmed without a well-dated local paleoclimate proxy record. A decline in connectedness as measured by earthenware diversity just after 2300 BP may relate to a change in site use away from permanent occupation. This may be linked with a more dramatic increase in frequency and amplitude of El Niño events and attendant variability in rainfall. In addition to variation in connectedness over time within the PA1 sequence, there is variability in the connectedness of the two sites in this study. At BN1 there was higher diversity of Banda Islands clay sources but PA1 had higher diversity of non-Banda sources. Despite close proximity these communities appear to have operated within different social landscapes. This result highlights the potential of this approach for studying exchange and interaction to reveal nuances about the social geographies of the past. ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Many individuals and organizations have contributed to this research.

The Cilaki watershed is characterized by wide valley shapes in the mid to upstream areas and narrow valley shapes in the downstream area, which shape is like a wine glass. The Cilaki watershed is dominated by Quaternary volcanic deposits, while in the downstream area Tertiary sedimentary rocks are exposed. The Cilaki watershed appears to be controlled by active fault, but it isn't known how its stage of activities. The morphotectonic analysis focuses on the influences of geological structures on the shape of the watershed using remote sensing method. The tectonic frame is determined by tectonical analysis base on Southern West Java tectonic setting. We divide the morphotectonic study of the Cilaki watershed into three parts: 1) the quantitative characteristics of the geomorphology; 2) morphometrical analysis; and 3) characteristics of the geological structures. The shape and boundaries of the Cilaki watershed are determined by their structural influences.

  • Ambon – Banda Sea – Alor- Maumere
    DAY ITINERARY WITH MV MERMAID I BIODIVERSITY SPECIAL RING DIVES OF FIRE – AMBON – BANDA SEA – ALOR- MAUMERE DAY 1 Check-in on board Mermaid I. After arriving at Ambon and a safety briefing. You will do dives two dives at Ambon Bay in some fabulous muck dives with critters galore. This area is known for many rare and unusual species including the psychedelic frogfish and 2 Rhinopias. DAY 2-3 The next two days will be spent in the Banda Islands, formerly known as the Spice dives Islands. Many of the dive sites around the Banda islands are wall dives. The walls are covered in massive gorgonians, soft corals, barrel sponges and have some very 7 interesting swim throughs. But there are other attractive dive sites such as pinnacles with enormous groups of schooling pyramid butterflyfish, triggerfish and pelagic fishes such as tunas passing through, spectacular hard coral reefs next to the volcano, and great muck dives with lots of mandarin fish at the local jetty. The Banda Islands are much more than diving. It is also a cultural and historical experience. You will spend one morning walking around the village of Banda Neira the main island, with a local guide, visiting the local museum, the old Dutch fort, the old colonial governor’s house, the local fish market and a nutmeg plantation, where you will have breakfast. DAY 4 Manuk – Snake Volcano – sometimes has more snakes than Gunung Api. Still no need dives to be afraid! The site also offers a black sand reef dive with loads of fish and pretty hard corals.

Precision levels of the order of 0.2–0.3% in the measured age are nowadays achieved while several international intercomparison exercises have shown the high degree of reproducibility of the results. This paper discusses the applications of 14C dating related to the analysis of samples up-taking carbon from marine carbon pools such as the sea and the oceans. For this kind of samples relevant methodological issues have to be properly addressed in order to correctly interpret 14C data and then obtain reliable chronological frameworks. These issues are mainly related to the so-called “marine reservoirs effects” which make radiocarbon ages obtained on marine organisms apparently older than coeval organisms fixing carbon directly from the atmosphere. We present the strategies used to correct for these effects also referring to the last internationally accepted and recently released Citation: Quarta, G.; Maruccio, L.; calibration curve.

  • The Birds of Babar, Romang, Sermata, Leti and Kisar, Maluku, Indonesia
    Colin R. Trainor & Philippe Verbelen 272 Bull. B.O.C. 2013 133(4) New distributional records from forgoten Banda Sea islands: the birds of Babar, Romang, Sermata, Leti and Kisar, Maluku, Indonesia by Colin R. Trainor & Philippe Verbelen Received 5 July 2011; fnal revision accepted 10 September 2013 Summary.—Many of the Banda Sea islands, including Babar, Romang, Sermata and Leti, were last surveyed more than 100 years ago. In October–November 2010, birds were surveyed on Romang (14 days), Sermata (eight days), Leti (fve days) and Kisar (seven days), and on Babar in August 2009 (ten days) and August 2011 (11 days). Limited unpublished observations from Damar, Moa, Masela (of Babar) and Nyata (of Romang) are also included here. A total of 128 bird species was recorded (85 resident landbirds), with 104 new island records, among them fve, 12, 20, four and three additional resident landbirds for Babar, Romang, Sermata, Leti and Kisar, respectively. The high proportion of newly recorded and apparently overlooked resident landbirds on Sermata is puzzling but partly relates to limited historical collecting. Signifcant records include Ruddy-breasted Crake Porzana fusca (Romang), Red-legged Crake Rallina fasciata (Sermata), Bonelli’s Eagle Aquila fasciata renschi (Romang), Elegant Pita Pita elegans vigorsii (Babar, Romang, Sermata), Timor Stubtail Urosphena subulata (Babar, Romang), the frst sound-recordings of Kai Cicadabird Coracina dispar (Babar?, Romang) and endemic subspecies of Southern Boobook Ninox boobook cinnamomina (Babar) and N. b. moae (Romang, Sermata?). The frst ecological notes were collected for Green Oriole Oriolus favocinctus migrator on Romang, the lowland-dwelling Snowy-browed Flycatcher Ficedula hyperythra audacis on Babar, the endemic subspecies of Yellow- throated (Banda) Whistler Pachycephala macrorhyncha par on Romang, and Grey Friarbird Philemon kisserensis on Kisar and Leti.

  • The Life and Work of Bernhard Nikolas Johann Roskott (1811–1873) on the Island of Ambon, Indonesia1
    The Life and Work of Bernhard Nikolas Johann Roskott (1811–1873) on the Island of Ambon, Indonesia1 Dr. Chris de Jong 1. Foreword An alteration in certain elements of a culture or the adaptation of a culture to changing circumstances is seldom attributable to the work of one individual, whichever way one judges these changes. All manner of forces and factors play a part, some perhaps less obviously than others, but together they form a network of cause and consequence, or rather causes and consequences, which it seems impossi- ble to disentangle. It is the task of historians, anthropologists and sociologists to unravel this tangled web, and to point out certain patterns which are fundamental in the processes of change which are being investigated. However, in spite of the complexity of facts and developments, it occasionally happens that one can identify a particular person who played such a significant role in a certain period of history that he or she merits special attention. Such a figure was the German teacher Bernhard Nikolas Johann Roskott, who from 1835 till long after his death in 1873 left his mark on the education of the indigenous population in the residency of Ambon. This essay is dedicated to this teacher, who was sent to the area by the Dutch Missionary Society (Nederlands Zendeling Genootschap, NZG).2 This essay begins with a brief sketch of the state of affairs in the Moluccas Roskott encountered when he arrived there in 1835. This is followed by a detailed account of his life and work. Finally I shall try to assess the signifi- B.N.J.

The largest and best documented are the events of 1770 and 1859 in the Molucca Sea region, of 1629, 1774 and 1852 in the Banda Sea region, the 1820 event in Makassar, the 1857 event in Dili, Timor, the 1815 event in Bali and Lom- bok, the events of 1699, 1771, 1780, 1815, 1848 and 1852 in Java, and the events of 1797, 1818, 1833 and 1861 in Sumatra. Most of these events caused damage over a broad region, and are asso- ciated with years of temporal and spatial clustering of earthquakes. The earthquakes left many cit- ies in ‘rubble heaps’. Some events spawned tsunamis with run-up heights .15 m that swept many coastal villages away. 2004 marked the recurrence of some of these events in western Indonesia. However, there has not been a major shallow earthquake (M ≥ 8) in Java and eastern Indonesia for the past 160 years.
