Station whaleboat; Joan amidships; and an outrigger of the ‘Brown Rice’; “The whaleboat had no motors but, as I remembered, it had two oars and two barge poles. If we had no wind we had to get to shore or the tide would take us – hence oars and poles for short distances 3. A short distance up the Fly River, taken from one of the very few high banks; Joan and our dog Kiri amidships 4. This huge canoe was abandoned at Gaima by a group of men from Lake Murray on their way to get their first glimpse of civilisation, they were certainly looking ahead, which was quite remarkable for those days: Joan and Kiri at the far end of the canoe 5. Our first house at Gaima, which was out first home after we were married, L to R: station store and office, our house, kitchen – half of the roof of which was corrugated iron, part of the laundry 6. Proceeding to the right from No 5, the laundry, the toilet, the Fly River. The land in right background is a long island between the banks of the Fly Rivers. Ern and Ruth Graham were our nearest neighbour, he manager of the Madiri Plantation on the other side of the river. Obviously, when I took Nos 5 and 6, I stood further from the subject in 6 than in 5 (I was not thinking of fifty years hence, but then who of our your age did then, or do now) 7. Our second house at Gaima. Laundry to the rear, small fenced garden in front, the path to the left went to the new hospital 8. This photograph is included, not because of the handsome couple on the steps, but to illustrate those steps. They were made from flitches from the station pit saw. The large dog belonged to Ern and Ruth Graham 9. Our front entrance at very low tide, ‘Brown Rice’ at low water mark 10.

This is supposed to be Bill Crellin and myself with sundry others standing on a canoe at Suki Lagoon up the Fly River from Gaima. A very colourful place, water lilies etc flowering, and numerous birds; A constable fired one shot from a 303 and killed three birds (either ducks or geese); during that patrol we encountered the bore, a very awe- inspiring sight 25. Me checking the village census, (the photographer was one of my medical staff) 26. Giving IM (intramuscular) injection in buttock, Gaima Hospital 1947/48. The lad in foreground is Waineti, with a pleasant smile. In 1975, in Lae, I met Dr Waineti, his son, this being indicative of the progress being made by each generation. When I made myself known, Dr Waineti said his father had told him about me. 27. Refer photos 25 & 26. The lad sitting down is being given an IV (intravenous) injection for the disease Yaws, which had three phases caused by a spirochete; the three phases and the spirochete are very similar to syphilis, although yaws was not venereal. The child in photo No 26 is being given an IM (intramuscular) injection in the buttock for Yaws. The IV drug was a complicated compound of arsenic and the IM drug was Bismuth Subgallate in olive oil. A very concentrated effort throughout PNG in the early 60’s using IM penicillin, eventually eradicated the diseases Yaws (Framboesia) I am looking on. I was barefoot because, being this, mud and water were not squelching through my boots 28. A typical communal/community dwelling on the Lower Fly River.

  • The Legacy of the German Language in Papua New Guinea T
    Craig Alan Voll<er The legacy of the German language in Papua New Guinea t. lntroduction' German colonial rule in the western Pacific began formally in 1884 when unbe- known to them, people in north-eastern New Guinea (Ifuiser Wilhelmsland), the archipelago around the Bismarck Sea, and in the next year, almost ali of neigh- boring Micronesia were proclaimed to be under German "protection". This act changed ways of living that had existed for tens of thousands of years and laid the foundation for what eventually became the modern state of Papua New Guinea. This proclamation was made in German, a language that was then unknown to Melanesians and Micronesians. Today the German language is again mostly unknown to most Melanesians and only a few visible traces of any German colonial legacy remain. There are no old colonial buildings, no monuments outside of a few small and almost hidden cemeteries, and no German Clubs or public signs in German. In this century there has not even been a German embassy. But it is impossible to step out in New Ireland (the former "Neu-Mecklenburg"), for example, without being con- fronted by a twenty-first century reality that is in part a creation of German col- onial rule. Species that were introduced by the Germans stiil retain their German name, frorn clover,I(lee in both German and the local Nalik language to pineap- ples (GermanAnanas / Nalik ananas). The best rural road in the country the Bulominski Highway was started by and named after the last German governor of Neu-Mecklenburg and a mountain range is known as the Schleinitz Range.

  • Ports of New Guinea Revisited (A Trip Down Memory Lane)
    Ports of New Guinea Revisited (A Trip Down Memory Lane) Not named the “Paradise Islands” without due reason. Papua New Guinea and its outlaying islands must rank amongst the top in the global scale of beauty for both Fauna and Flora, not to mention the pristine Aquatic attributes these islands possess. If crystal blue water, silver sandy beaches, swaying palms, coral reefs, lush tropical rainforest, reptiles, and birds together with a country steeped in history and culture stokes your imagination, then this should become your choice of destination. It is true that Papua New Guinea is not blessed with an extensive infrastructure of highways and good roads and the only realistic way to explore these islands is by light aircraft, or better still, by ship. I spent a memorable 4-5 years of my sea-going career in the Pacific Islands, including New Guinea, and it is based on my observations and experiences that this narration is derived. During the 1970s and early 80s I was fortunate to have the opportunity to sail around these waters in my capacity as a professional seafarer. It covered a relatively short period, but it was a time of great adventure and feeling of exploration, bearing in mind that during those years New Guinea was completely unspoiled by the influences of Western society and retained much more mystique and feeling of the “unknown” compared to today. What follows is a personal recap and description, of what I can remember of those years I spent in the region. Map showing main Ports of New Guinea DARU Island - this is a small elliptical island close to the mainland in the western region of Papua New Guinea.

  • The Death of Godeffroy's Kleinschmidt, and the Perception of H
    “STORI BILONG WANPELA MAN NEM BILONG EM TOBOALILU,” THE DEATH OF GODEFFROY’S KLEINSCHMIDT, AND THE PERCEPTION OF HISTORY Heinz Schütte Paris, France Introduction This article is a footnote to a question of prime theoretical interest, namely the process of transition from one societal form to another. It poses another question that is, however, of central importance in that context: How is history made and how is it retained in the memory of those who come after? This question cannot be answered hastily, and the present essay is to be regarded only as an illustration of a very par- ticular case in New Guinea. Two levels of “history” are presented that in reality represent one event; that is, one aspect of European expansion overseas in the course of which the people whom that expansion came to dominate were deprived of their own history.’ What will be related here, then, are two versions of the same event, viewed through two mutually exclusive sets of interests that shaped their respective perspectives: that of the Europe- ans, their Pacific helpers and their allies, and that of the Utuan and Mioko peoples native to the area. Yet even within these two groups there emerge significant differences of perception and interpretation that- albeit at times overlapping-are contingent on the actors’ relative posi- tion in the drama that is acted out. The one version would maintain that it is “history,” objectively reporting what happened, the other that it is a “story” or “tradition,” known by individuals or small groups and only to be expressed orally.
