    FACETS OF MODERN CEYLON HISTORY THROUGH THE LETTERS OF JERONIS PIERIS BY MICHAEL ROBERT Hannadige Jeronis Pieris (1829-1894) was educated at the Colombo Academy and thereafter joined his in-laws, the brothers Jeronis and Susew de Soysa, as a manager of their ventures in the Kandyan highlands. Arrack-renter, trader, plantation owner, philanthro- pist and man of letters, his career pro- vides fascinating sidelights on the social and economic history of British Ceylon. Using Jeronis Pieris's letters as a point of departure and assisted by the stock of knowledge he has gather- ed during his researches into the is- land's history, the author analyses several facets of colonial history: the foundations of social dominance within indigenous society in pre-British times; the processes of elite formation in the nineteenth century; the process of Wes- ternisation and the role of indigenous elites as auxiliaries and supporters of the colonial rulers; the events leading to the Kandyan Marriage Ordinance no. 13 of 1859; entrepreneurship; the question of the conflict for land bet- ween coffee planters and villagers in the Kandyan hill-country; and the question whether the expansion of plantations had disastrous effects on the stock of cattle in the Kandyan dis- tricts. This analysis is threaded by in- formation on the Hannadige- Pieris and Warusahannadige de Soysa families and by attention to the various sources available to the historians of nineteenth century Ceylon.

The IGOMOS (International Council On Monuments and Sites) of the Netherlands held a conference in Colombo in October 1993. This conference was a high powered one which included Dutch delegates led by Mr. J..M. Hingevel. No doubt the conference yielded valuable information about Dutch monuments and sites in Sri Lanka erected in Dutch times. In the course of the conference, the President of the DBU, Mr. Harold Speldewinde, invited the Dutch delegates to a sumptuous dinner at the DBU hall in June 1993. This dinner was attended by about 50 Dutch delegates. It was also attended by a large number of DBU members. It was a highly successful evening spent by all. The Dutch Embassy in Sri Lanka made it a point of publishing for a second time "the Furniture of the Dutch Period in Ceylon".

In the study of these primary export economies two sectors have generally been identified - one, referred to as the 'modern' sector, producing for the world market such crops as coffee, sugar, tea, rubber, coconut, palm-oil etc. and extracting non-renewable resources such as petroleum, tin, timber etc. and the other, referred to as the 'traditional' sector, producing food crops for home consumption or the local market.
