Apra to Cairns Expedition (Silver Explorer) APRA TO CAIRNS EXPEDITION (SILVER EXPLORER) Unmistakably different from anywhere you might have been before, Micronesia and Papua New Guinea are rich in history and traditional legacies. Immerse yourself in a cultural tour de force during the next 19-days, experiencing diverse cultural traditions as you travel from island to island. From sailing an ocean-going outrigger to enjoying a glorious singsing in Papua New Guinea, this voyage takes interactive travel to a whole new level. ITINERARY Day 1 Apra Guam is blessed with spectacular natural beauty and a rich cultural history. Apra Harbor is a deep-water port located on the western side of the island. The island is part of the Mariana Islands and near the Mariana Trench, which is the deepest part of the earth’s oceans, and the deepest location of the earth itself. The port serves both as a U.S. naval station and Guam’s main commercial port. The harbour, formed by the Orote Peninsula to the south and Cabras Island in the north, is considered to be one of the best natural ports in the Pacific. Guam’s unique culture, traditions and heritage have remained intact despite European imperialism, wars and changing foreign governments. Archaeological evidence suggests that the indigenous Chamorros of Indo-Malayan descent migrated from the Southeast Asian islands and settled throughout the Marianas archipelago. Being expert seamen and skilled craftsmen, they flourished and built unique houses and canoes suited to the region. As a matriarchal society and through the prestige of the women, much of the Chamorro culture and traditions were able to survive. Since the 16th century, a wave of foreigners have arrived on Guam’s shores, including Ferdinand Magellan in 1521 who remained on the island for three days to restock his small convoy. Americans, Asians, Europeans, Micronesians and other visitors have since left their imprint on the island’s pastimes and tastes.

  • Exploring the Importance of Strong Reciprocity in the Greater Caribbean
    Journal of Caribbean Archaeology Copyright 2010 ISSN 1524-4776 SOMETHING FOR NOTHING: EXPLORING THE IMPORTANCE OF STRONG RECIPROCITY IN THE GREATER CARIBBEAN Angus A. A. Mol Faculty of Archaeology Leiden University P.O. Box 9515 2300 RA Leiden The Netherlands [email protected] Abstract When discussing exchange in the archaeological record, this often entails a prehistory of exchange that is focused on the economic or the political aspect of exchanges. These par- ticular views very often suppose a direct quid-pro-quo attitude to exchanges. Although direct reciprocity was no doubt important for the constitution of pre-Columbian sociality, many other social strategies are available that were at least as important. This article focuses on the possible role of strong reciprocity in pan-Caribbean interactions. This entails that ob- jects and concepts should not be only considered for their value as exchange valuables in an economic or ideological sense, but also from their ability to create material manifestations of social strategies and their resulting relations. This position will be illuminated by a case- study taken from Melanesian ethnography and Caribbean archaeology. Résumé Lorsque l’on traite des échanges dans les travaux archéologiques, il est généralement fait référence à une préhistoire des échanges centrée sur les seuls aspects économiques ou poli- tiques. Ce point de vue implique très souvent une attitude de contrepartie directe dans les échanges. Bien que la réciprocité directe occupât sans doute une place importante dans la constitution de la sociabilité précolombienne, beaucoup d’autres stratégies sociales, au moins aussi importantes, étaient envisageables. Cet article se concentre sur le possible rôle de la réciprocité stricte dans les interactions pan-caribéenne.

  • Kula Valuables the Problem of Value and the Production of Names
    Kula Valuables The Problem of Value and the Production of Names Frederick H. Damon IN THIS PAPER I describe and analyze an aspect of the kula that has only occu- pied the edges of my other published work – the institution’s avowed central purpose, the production of « names », and their realization in « fame ». Although I noted this purpose in the first item I completed for publication (Damon 1983a : 317), only with Nancy Munn’s work on Gawa (1986) has it become widely understood that the production of « fame » is the central goal of this regional system. Yet the ways names of valuables and persons relate to this intent are not yet well described. The questions I seek to address here are how, exactly, is the circulation of this shell wealth structured so that a name/fame is created ? If valuables are parts of persons, how is this representation formed and accord- ing to what processes ? In other words, what is being circulated that results in the creation of what we take to be an agent’s identity ? And what exactly are the relations among valuables, which people of course name, and the naming of persons that results from their circulation ? These questions are important. While many writers about the kula have made reference to valuable names, unlike other aspects of the institution, the newer ethnography has not trans- formed received understandings. Among other things, a more thorough analy- sis helps locate what Gell calls the « anticipatory joy » that, he believes, motivates much action which our society calls « economic » (Gell 1992 : 183- 184).

Bronislaw Malinowski: Identifying the Kula Ring of the Trobriand Islanders: The Role of Ethnographic Field Observation in Pattern Recognition By Eric White Background Bronislaw Kasper Malinowski (1884–1942) was a student at the London School of Economics from 1910–1916. He joined the faculty from 1913–14 and later returned in 1921 as a lecturer. In 1927 he served as the first Chair in Social Anthropology at the School. He taught classes at Cornell University in 1933 and at Harvard University, where he received an honorary doctoral degree in 1936. In 1939 Malinowski became a visiting professor at Yale. He was one of the founders of functionalism in the social sciences and he shaped the fundamental methodology of modern anthropology. His spatial contributions to anthropology and the social sciences are two-fold. First he trained a generation of British anthropologists in the methodology of fieldwork and stressed the importance of living with a population. Functionalism, often considered his most important theoretical contribution, developed based on his understanding of how the Trobriand Islanders coped with and maintained social relations across vast stretches of ocean. Innovation Fieldwork is considered to be an important hallmark of modern anthropological research.
