* 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. -

The voyage of the Duyfken Replica (i.e., a replica of a 17th century Dutch ship) from Australia to the Netherlands has generated great interest in its associated Web site, and it is now planned to extend the original site to mirror sites in both Australia and the Netherlands, each completely bilingual, resulting in four different 'virtual' Web sites. However, the look and feel of the Web site needs to be the same across all the virtual sites, and the media resource used will be the same. This paper proposes a solution based on multiple sets of concurrent metadata and discusses some general implications of this approach for metadata harvesting and resource discovery. The prototype, which is based on a database that handles parallel sets of metadata, is described, together with the process for accession and annotation of media artifacts, and the dynamic generation of the Web pages from the database. -

Swan River Belonging: Social and Emotional Interactions with an Urban River in the South West of Western Australia
Swan River Belonging: social and emotional interactions with an urban river in the South West of Western Australia Marie Seeman Bachelor of Arts (Hons) in Anthropology, University of Queensland This thesis is presented for the degree of Master of Arts at the University of Western Australia. School of Social and Cultural Studies Discipline of Anthropology and Sociology 2008 Marie Seeman 1 ABSTRACT In this thesis I explore concepts of belonging in relation to the Swan River of Perth, Western Australia. The primary focus of my research was on the various ways in which people expressed their social and emotional connections to a waterway often referred to as the 'soul of the city'. The people consulted derived from two main groups: a local inner city catchment group and a collection of artists. Drawing on literature such as Kay Milton's theories of emotion, culture and the environment to explain my ethnographic data, I show how and why people's interactions with the Swan River are motivated and enacted. This thesis demonstrates that human relationships with rivers such as the Swan are complicated by themes that include nostalgia, memory, aesthetics, space, proximity, ecological concerns and development issues. By drawing on a range of methods (participant observation, interviewing) and travel modes (walking, cycling), I found that current day practices were affected by historical decision making for both indigenous and non-indigenous groups. My research conveys the value of doing socio-cultural research on rivers in urban and in other contexts, -

185 SPORTS, ARTS, CULTURE & COMMUNITY SERVICES COMMITTEE 11 21 AUGUST 2008 GRANT OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AGREEMENT BETWEEN CAIRNS REGIONAL COUNCIL AND THE DUYFKEN 1606 REPLICA FOUNDATION – PROGRESS REPORT Ian Lowth: 10/25/1-05: #1782715 RECOMMENDATION: That Council note the report received from the Duyfken 1606 Replica Foundation for the period January to June 2008. INTRODUCTION: This report provides Council with a) details of a Financial Agreement between Council and The Duyfken 1606 Replica Foundation (The Foundation) and b) a copy of a periodic progress report as submitted by the Foundation under the terms of the Agreement. BACKGROUND: The history of the Duyfken commenced in 1606 when the small ship of that name, owned by the Dutch East India Company and stationed in the East Indies, made a voyage of exploration looking for "east and south lands" which took it to Australia's Cape York Peninsula. That voyage is the first historically recorded voyage to Australia. As part of bringing Australian history to life, the Duyfken replica was built in Fremantle and completed in 1999. A community foundation constructed the ship at a cost of $3.7 million, of which the Queensland Government contributed $0.5 million. In 2000, the replica of the Duyfken left Fremantle Harbour and began her voyage of re- enactment, which culminated nine months later in Brisbane. Then in 2006 the ship completed an impressive journey to commemorate the 400th anniversary of that first voyage to Australia, visiting 25 ports around Australia. The replica of the Duyfken is the property of and managed by the Duyfken 1606 Replica Foundation. -

Historic Maps and Archaeology As a Means of Understanding Late Precolonial Settlement in the Banda Islands, Indonesia
Historic Maps and Archaeology as a Means of Understanding Late Precolonial Settlement in the Banda Islands, Indonesia PETER V. LAPE Archaeological studies of settlement patterning have provided useful data for understanding the process of cross-cultural interaction in many parts of the world. These studies have highlighted how shifts in settlement locations, re- gional organization of settlements, and spatial relationships between settlements and resources can be linked to evidence for cross-cultural contact and interaction. Contextualizing other evidence about the process and e¤ects of cross-cultural interaction with settlement pattern shifts often evokes more powerful explana- tions about how people accommodate foreigners in their lives (Cusick 1998; Insoll 1999; Kirch and Sahlins 1992; Ucko and Layton 1999). In some cases of cross-cultural interaction, such as at the sites of European colonial projects in Africa, Asia, and the New World, historic maps can provide a valuable data set relating to settlement pattern changes. While maps are rec- ognized as being particularly prone to biases of their makers and publishers, a comparison with archaeological settlement data can provide useful interpretive insights into both data sets. Below I provide a case study of the use of historic maps and archaeological data for understanding the relationship between chang- ing settlement patterns and the arrival of foreign traders, including Asians and Europeans, to the Banda Islands of Eastern Indonesia in the fifteenth to seven- teenth centuries (Fig. 1). These 11 islands were once the world’s sole source of nutmeg and mace, and became the site of some of the fiercest struggles for trade and colonial dominance in the early modern era.
