  • Remote Eastern Indonesia
    Buru Pitta in a shady ginger grove (Craig Robson) REMOTE EASTERN INDONESIA 7 – 29 NOVEMBER 2014 LEADER: CRAIG ROBSON Our latest tour to Buru, Ambon, Haruku, Yamdena (Tanimbar Is), Kai and Seram was another action-packed adventure! There were a couple of special highlights this time. On Buru we were lucky enough to re-discover Blue-fronted Lorikeet. It seems that there have been no confirmed sightings of this tiny endemic parrot since the 1920s or 1930s. Our few record shots are the first pictures ever taken of the species. Another stand-out observation was the Chinese Crested Tern that we found again off the north coast of Seram, following on from our discovery in 2010. The bird was still present in late December, and it is now clear that this is a wintering area – the only one currently documented for this critically endangered species. This tour is packed with a seemingly ever-increasing number of endemics, and there was a constant stream of other highlights: Forsten’s, Tanimbar and Moluccan Megapodes, Pygmy Eagle, Rufous-necked Sparrowhawk, Great Cuckoo- Dove, Wallace’s Fruit Dove, Moluccan (or Lesser) Masked Owl, Salmon-crested (or Seram) Cockatoo, Blue- eared Lory, Moluccan King Parrot, Buru Dwarf Kingfisher, Buru, Seram and Tanimbar Boobooks, Buru and Papuan Pittas, Kai Leaf Warbler, Buru and Seram Bush Warblers, Rufescent Darkeye, Grey-hooded White- eyes, Long-crested Myna, Buru, Fawn-breasted and Slaty-backed Thrushes, and many more. Logistics were pretty seamless and this was a smooth-running and comfortable tour as usual. 1 BirdQuest Tour Report: Remote Eastern Indonesiabirdquest-tours.com We all landed in Ambon, the capital of South Maluku Province, at lunch-time.

  • WELE Telu Batai and the Alune Hena of Ma’Saman Uwei
    Chapter 7. Traditional Territorial Categories and Constituent Institutions in West Seram: The Nili Ela of ’WELE Telu Batai and the Alune Hena of Ma’saman Uwei Christine Boulan-Smit Introduction Seram, the largest island of the Moluccas, lies only a few hours by boat from the regional capital city of Ambon. According to tradition, Seram is referred to as Nusa Ina, the `Mother Island'. An Alune narrative, collected by A.D.E. Jensen, recalls that at one time in the past Seram, Ambon and the Uliase Islands (Saparua, Haruku and Nusalaut) formed a single island where warfare was constant. So, the people of Ambon cut off a large parcel of land, tied it with human hair and dragged it to where it lies nowadays. Later, those of Saparua, Haruku and Nusalaut did the same and they have been separated from their Mother Island ever since. However, all know that once upon a time they were part of Seram and this is why they call Seram Nusa Ina and why the members of the same origin groups are spread out over all of these islands. 1 Seram is now divided administratively into three regions: West, Central and East Seram. This paper focuses on Seram's western region, which is called `Wele Telu', the `Three Large Rivers', and encompasses roughly one-fifth of the island (about 35,000km2). It examines how West Seramese traditionally envisioned their land at the regional and domain level. The first part of the paper considers the categorical divisions of an ancient inter-domain institution, the Nili Ela (or Saniri Ela, `Large Assembly') of 'Wele Telu Batai (The Three Large River Valleys), now mostly a feature of the past.

This "development" programme affects all facets of Indonesian society as a growing state apparatus exerts its authoritarian influence. In this context the thesis discusses social change in two Wemale villages located in the interior of western Seram at the very margins pf the state administration's power and interest. Drawing upon their experience of submission to colonial state control and the presence of the Protestant Church since the turn of the 19th century, these formerly autonomous shifting cultivators have embraced, modified and subverted the rhetoric of modernisation in antithesis to 'adat' their presumed ancestral customs.

  • “Culture Is a Shadow”, Language As a Shade 153
    152 WacanaWacana Vol. Vol.22 No. 22 1No. (2021): 1 (2021) 152-181 James T. Collins, “Culture is a shadow”, language as a shade 153 “Culture is a shadow”, language as a shade Fragments of a dead language, Naka’ela James T. Collins ABSTRACT One of the distinctive languages of Central Maluku, Naka’ela, was once spoken by a remnant language community on the north coast of Seram. Relying on data collected in Seram in 1978, Naka’ela has been among the Central Maluku languages included in studies of morphophonology (Collins 1983a, 1983b), areal phonology shift (1982, 2018a), and language classification (Collins 1983a). A fallacious, mechanistic classification of Naka’ela (Mahsun et al. 2008; Mukhamdanah 2015) was also published and has been recently disproven (Collins 2019a, 2019b). This essay will review some of the aspects of the Naka’ela language system by exploring what we can discern about verbal conjugation systems and genitive paradigms in this Central Maluku language. Based on contemporary reports from Seram (Sadrach Latue, p.c., 27-10-2018), the Naka’ela language, like so many others in Central Maluku, is no longer spoken; nor are there “rememberers” of this extinct language. In this setting of dead and forgotten languages, we recall the brutal genocides and culture murders in Australia (Daniel Nettle and Suzanne Romaine 2000). Recently, Dianne Biritjalawuy Gondarra, a Yolngu woman from northern Australia, explained that “culture is a shadow, it’s something that follows your everywhere, and part of culture is language, which connects me back to my land” (James Griffths 2020). This essay is intended to shed more light on Naka’ela and the complex setting of fading multilingualism in Central Maluku.
