Jayapura, Agustus 1991 Universitas Cenderwasih, Drs. August Kafiar, MA J iii Preface Workpapers in Indonesian Languages and Cultures is published occasionally by the Cooperative Programs between the SUmmer Institute of Linguistics and Cenderawasih University in Irian Jaya, Hasanuddin University in Sulawesi and Pattimura University in Maluku. Its purpose is to share some of the knowledge gained as the result of research. projects which are unde~way in these three provinces. This particular volume focuses on Irian Jaya. In the first article in this volume the Gravelles describe the phonology of the Meah language, which is spoken in and around the district of Manokwari. The other four deal with languages which are spoken in the district of Fak-Fak. These include the Matsumuras' descriptions of Irarutu phonology and gramm~r; Lloyd Peckham's description of Mairasi phonology; and a report about a shott language survey which he conducted in Etna Bay in 1985. These articles are presented here, in the hopes that they will ·serve to increase understanding of this region and to stimulate further research into the languages and cultures of Irian Jaya. The editors would like to express our deep appreciation for Cenderawasih University and the government of Indonesia. Their sponsorship and encouragement have made this research possible.

Findings of a short visit to Etna Bay 31 March, 1985 r eveal no wordlist of a 'new' language. But a more c omplete wordlist of , Iresim' is produced than had been previously p~ b lished (Voorhoeve 1975). Infor ma tion was ga thered about an­ other Mairasi language north of Etna Bay called Mer (Muri or Miere ) (listed as Miere and accurately placed in Sal zner 1960). Therefore, a trek into the Mer area was made in February and March 1986. A Mer wordlist is included . 14 7 Workpapers 1n Indonesian Languages and Cultures 1. INTRODUCTION1 Geographically, Etna Bay 1S 1n an interesting location on the border between the steep coastline of the western part of Irian Jaya's south coast and the swampy coastline of the eastern part of the south coast2 • Linguistically, it divides the Mairasi­ Tanah Merah Stock from the Central and South New Guinea Stock within the Trans New Guinea Phylum of Papuan languages (Wurm 1982:16). 2. PREVIOUS KNOWLEDGE There is considerable information about exploration in the Etna Bay region. Linguistic information about the Kamoro language, of which the Nanesa dialect is spoken at the mouth of Etna Bay, is available in Drabbe (1947, 1953, 1954). Wordlists and various other minimal descriptions of Semimi are available (Voorhoeve, Anceaux). Several households of Yabi people were moved by the government to Etna Bay in the 1970's. The Yabi language and culture is related to Ekagi (Kapauku), which has received considerable attention (Doble, Posposil, Bruyn). The Iresim language (Voorhoeve) had only four words listed. It was not previously listed as one of the languages of the Etna Bay area. The documented existence of a gap in the knowledge of the languages of the area (Anceaux 1958:118-120) was a help in spawning interest in the languages of the area. 3 • NEW KNOWLEDGE A list of 200+ words from the Iresim (Erega) language was the primary finding of the brief, one night stop at Kiruru, the governmental center located at the northeast end of the bay. The secondary finding was the reported existence of a Mairasi language which the Semimi people at Kiruru called 'Muri'. This was the same name that had been gtven by Semimi people for their own language or a dialect of it in the Kayu Merah area. This resulted in the recent opportunity to get within the territory used by Mer people for hunting, which produced a 200+ 148 Etna Bay Survey Report wordlist and some information in both Mer and Mairasi about the Mer culture. Only the wordlist is presented in this paper. 3.1 Language Attitude , Use Direct observation of language attitude and use was limited to one day and one night. But a few observations and reports by the local people are worthy of note. There is an influx of people from other parts ' of Indonesia and/or Irian Jaya~. This is not entirely new, but has been accelerated since the founding of Kiruru as the governmental center in the 1970's in a place that used to be a battle-ground, according to the present residents and past visitors (Webster 1898). Koiwai was formerly a common second language in the area. The people of Lakahia say that they learned it from a man named Tibe Biasa from Kili Mala. Now Indonesian is becoming the dominant language, but Koi~ai is still used. The Kecamatan or District of Teluk Etna has three sub­ districts or desas, with a combined population of 1,800 spread over an area of approximately 3,000 square kilometers. 1) Desa Semimi is centered at Lakahia, a village of Kamoro speakers who also speak Koiwai. Historically, slave trade was carried out at Lakahia by people from Seram and Tidore through the Koiwai people (Peckham 1985). People of Etna Bay and Triton Bay remember Nanesa and Mairasi people who were taken. Tibe Untung was a Nanesa person who was taken to Namatota (and died there in 1985). It is on an island at the southeast part of the mouth of the bay. Other villages in Desa Semimi are Warifi (200 Kamoro speakers and 70 Semimi speakers), Kayu Merah (Koiwai), Omba (Kamoro), and Kiruru (Semimi, Yabi, others). The old village "Etnabaai" was abandoned in the mid 1970's for fear of landslides from the steep Bamana Mountains. (2) Desa Yamur Kecil includes villages Hetahima, Omba Pamuku, and Erega. Iresim and Yabi are said to be the languages of that sub-district. 149 Workpapers in Indonesian Languages and Cultures (3) Desa Yamur Besar includes villages Gureda, Gariau, Anggadi, and Muri3 • This is the subdistrict which includes the Mer language. People are referred to by the name of the language they speak, if they are from an area that has several languages. People in Kiruru and Warifi, for example, are called "Semimi people" or "Nanesa people" rather than "Kiruru" or "Warifi people". Multiplicity of languages is an accepted fact of l~fe. Housing appears to be arranged by language in Kiruru and in Warifi. In Warifi, the Semimi and Nanesa housing areas are separated by over one hundred meters of space empty of houses. Intermarriage is said to occur frequently between Semimi and Nanesa people. Such households are said to retain both languages and Indonesian or Malay as well.

  • In Antoinette SCHAPPER, Ed., Contact and Substrate in the Languages of Wallacea PART 1
    Contact and substrate in the languages of Wallacea: Introduction Antoinette SCHAPPER KITLV & University of Cologne 1. What is Wallacea?1 The term “Wallacea” originally refers to a zoogeographical area located between the ancient continents of Sundaland (the Malay Peninsula, Sumatra, Borneo, Java, and Bali) and Sahul (Australia and New Guinea) (Dickerson 1928). Wallacea includes Sulawesi, Lombok, Sumbawa, Flores, Sumba, Timor, Halmahera, Buru, Seram, and many smaller islands of eastern Indonesia and independent Timor-Leste (Map 1). What characterises this region is its diverse biota drawn from both the Southeast Asian and Australian areas. This volume uses the term Wallacea to refer to a linguistic area (Schapper 2015). In linguistic terms as in biogeography, Wallacea constitutes a transition zone, a region in which we observe the progression attenuation of the Southeast Asian linguistic type to that of a Melanesian linguistic type (Gil 2015). Centred further to the east than Biological Wallacea, Linguistic Wallacea takes in the Papuan and Austronesian languages in the region of eastern Nusantara including the Minor Sundic Islands east of Lombok, Timor-Leste, Maluku, the Bird’s Head and Neck of New Guinea, and Cenderawasih Bay (Map 2). Map 1. Biological Wallacea Map 2. Linguistic Wallacea 1 My editing and research for this issue has been supported by the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research VENI project “The evolution of the lexicon. Explorations in lexical stability, semantic shift and borrowing in a Papuan language family” and by the Volkswagen Stiftung DoBeS project “Aru languages documentation”. Many thanks to Asako Shiohara and Yanti for giving me the opportunity to work with them on editing this NUSA special issue.

Starting from the idea that the extinction of a language causes the loss of various forms of cultural heritage, especially the customary heritage and oral expressions of the speaking community. There are two main problems in this study, namely: (1) Identification of the regional language of indigenous Papuans in West Papua Province, and (2) Classification of regional languages of indigenous Papuans in West Papua Province. This study uses two approaches, namely (1) a theoretical approach and (2) a methodological approach. The theoretical approach is an exploration of the theory of language documentation, while the methodological approach is a descriptive approach with an explanative dimension. This study follows the procedures of (1) the data provision stage, (2) the data analysis stage, and (3) the data analysis presentation stage. The findings in this study illustrate that the languages in West Papua Province can be grouped into four language groups, namely (1) Austronesian phylum groups; (2) West Papua phylum group; (3) Papuan Bird Head phylum group; and (4) the Trans West Papua Phylum Group.

    © Copyright, Princeton University Press. No part of this book may be distributed, posted, or reproduced in any form by digital or mechanical means without prior written permission of the publisher. Introduction The New Guinea Region Our region of coverage follows Mayr (1941: vi), who defined the natural region that encompasses the avifauna of New Guinea, naming it the “New Guinea Region.” It comprises the great tropical island of New Guinea as well as an array of islands lying on its continental shelf or immediately offshore. This region extends from the equator to latitude 12o south and from longitude 129o east to 155o east; it is 2,800 km long by 750 km wide and supports the largest remaining contiguous tract of old-growth humid tropical forest in the Asia-Pacific (Beehler 1993a). The Region includes the Northwestern Islands (Raja Ampat group) of the far west—Waigeo, Batanta, Salawati, Misool, Kofiau, Gam, Gebe, and Gag; the Aru Islands of the southwest—Wokam, Kobroor, Trangan, and others; the Bay Islands of Geelvink/Cenderawasih Bay—Biak-Supiori, Numfor, Mios Num, and Yapen; Dolak Island of south-central New Guinea (also known as Dolok, Kimaam, Kolepom, Yos Sudarso, or Frederik Hendrik); Daru and Kiwai Islands of eastern south-central New Guinea; islands of the north coast of Papua New Guinea (PNG)—Kairiru, Muschu, Manam, Bagabag, and Karkar; and the Southeastern (Milne Bay) Islands of the far southeast—Goodenough, Fergusson, Normanby, Kiriwina, Kaileuna, Wood- lark, Misima, Tagula/Sudest, and Rossel, plus many groups of smaller islands (see the endpapers for a graphic delimitation of the Region).

  • Library of Congress Subject Headings for the Pacific Islands
    Library of Congress Subject Headings for the Pacific Islands First compiled by Nancy Sack and Gwen Sinclair Updated by Nancy Sack Current to January 2020 Library of Congress Subject Headings for the Pacific Islands Background An inquiry from a librarian in Micronesia about how to identify subject headings for the Pacific islands highlighted the need for a list of authorized Library of Congress subject headings that are uniquely relevant to the Pacific islands or that are important to the social, economic, or cultural life of the islands. We reasoned that compiling all of the existing subject headings would reveal the extent to which additional subjects may need to be established or updated and we wish to encourage librarians in the Pacific area to contribute new and changed subject headings through the Hawai‘i/Pacific subject headings funnel, coordinated at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa.. We captured headings developed for the Pacific, including those for ethnic groups, World War II battles, languages, literatures, place names, traditional religions, etc. Headings for subjects important to the politics, economy, social life, and culture of the Pacific region, such as agricultural products and cultural sites, were also included. Scope Topics related to Australia, New Zealand, and Hawai‘i would predominate in our compilation had they been included. Accordingly, we focused on the Pacific islands in Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia (excluding Hawai‘i and New Zealand). Island groups in other parts of the Pacific were also excluded. References to broader or related terms having no connection with the Pacific were not included. Overview This compilation is modeled on similar publications such as Music Subject Headings: Compiled from Library of Congress Subject Headings and Library of Congress Subject Headings in Jewish Studies.

Nur eine davon, C. biroi, wurde bisher auch im östlichen Teil von Papua (früher Irian Jaya) nachgewiesen. Bei Exkursionen des Verfassers in den Westen von Papua in den Jahren 2000 und 2002 wurden dort erstmalig Vertreter dieser Gattung gefunden. Es handelt sich dabei um zwei neue Arten, die hier beschrieben werden. Die mit einer Kopf- Rumpf-Länge von 26-28 mm (Männchen) größere Art kommt auf der Insel Yapen im Nordosten der Cenderawasih Bay vor. Sie ist offensichtlich näher mit C. biroi verwandt. Fehlende dunkle Streifen an den Kopfseiten und am Vorderkörper sowie Rufe von ein bis zwei Minuten Dauer und mit schnell aufeinander folgenden Silben im zwei- ten Teil der Rufe (Silbenwiederholungsrate 8 pro Sekunde) grenzen die neue Art jedoch deutlich von C. biroi (Silbenwiederholungsrate < l/s) ab.

Published online at www.senckenberg.de / vertebrate-zoology on 13.xi.2015. Abstract On the basis of material collected in the year 2008 in the Fakfak Mountains, Bomberai Peninsula, West Papua Province of Indonesia, two new microhylid frogs in the genus Oreophryne are described. Both new species are small (males 23.9 – 24.1 mm snout-vent length and 16.2 – 17.8 mm SVL) and belong to those Oreophryne that have a ligamentous connection between the procoracoid and the scapula, and by rattling or chirping advertisement calls. The larger species is further characterized by a mostly uniform dark grey-brown or black dorsal colouration with numerous small white flecks and yellow blotches on the hind limbs. The smaller species is characterized by a very small body size, and by a chirping call, this of great similarity to the call of the allopatric Choerophryne arndtorum. Kurzfassung Auf der Basis von Material, das im Jahr 2008 in den Fakfak Bergen, Bomberai Halbinsel, West Papua Provinz von Indonesien, gesammelt wurde, werden zwei neue Arten der Microhylidengattung Oreophryne beschrieben. Beide neue Arten gehören zu den kleinwüchsigen Formen (Männchen haben 23,9 – 24,1 mm bzw. 16,2 – 17,8 mm Kopf-Rumpf-Länge) der Gattung, und beide haben eine ligamentöse Verbindung zwischen Procoracoid und Scapula.
