Flaked stone tools were especially rare in comparison with many other pre-Neolithic locations in Southeast Asia. The site of Siti Nafisah produced no flaked stone at all, despite being fairly rich to its cultural base in animal bones, bone points, and shells (Table 4.1). Our general impression during the course of the research was that good cryptocrystalline raw materials such as chert, jasper, and agate are very rare in these islands (and only one piece of obsidian was found), such that people would have had to turn to inferior volcanic and metamorphic rocks for making stone tools. Perhaps they turned to alternative materials such as shell (Szabó et al. 2007; Szabó and Koppel 2015), although we did not find many finished shell tools in pre-Neolithic contexts, except for the shell adzes from Gebe. A series of bone points from Golo, Siti Nafisah, and Uattamdi have already been analysed and published by Juliette Pasveer (Pasveer and Bellwood 2004). As with the Golo lithics (below), detailed descriptions are not repeated here, except for the shell artefacts discussed by Katherine Szabó in the next chapter.","PeriodicalId":349878,"journal":{"name":"The Spice Islands in Prehistory: Archaeology in the Northern Moluccas, Indonesia","volume":"194 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122433417","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These islands mark a rapid transition between indigenes with ‘Melanesian’ features to the east and inhabitants of predominantly ‘Mongoloid’ physical appearance to the north and the west. Summarising early physical anthropological research, conducted in a typological paradigm, Coon and Hunt (1965:180) wrote ‘Some of the inhabitants are Negritos; others resemble Papuans. The Mongoloid element is minor’. Glinka (1981:103) emphasised the similarities between the populations across eastern Indonesia based on multivariate analysis of the recorded anthropometric data. He noted a predominantly dark brown skin colour, wavy to frizzy hair, a low incidence of epicanthic folds, low to medium stature, heads of narrow to medium breadth in shape with a very narrow forehead, and variable facial shape. Bulbeck et al. (2006) showed that recent crania from these islands have variable affinities, but predominantly with groups to the east of Wallace’s Line, both ‘Australoid’ and Mongoloid, notably Tasmanians, Filipinos, New Britain Tolai, Guam Chamorros, and Hawaiians. The human remains excavated from the Northern Moluccas provide the opportunity to investigate whether this mixture of affinities also prevailed in prehistoric times.","PeriodicalId":349878,"journal":{"name":"The Spice Islands in Prehistory: Archaeology in the Northern Moluccas, Indonesia","volume":"43 1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128216831","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Wallacea, for our purposes, lies between the Sunda and Sahul continental shelves, hence between Borneo/Bali and New Guinea/Australia. For R.E. Dickerson (1928), who first coined the term, Wallacea included the major Philippine and eastern Indonesian archipelagos, the latter comprising Sulawesi, Nusa Tenggara (the Lesser Sundas), Timor, and the Moluccas (Fig. 1.1). Many biogeographers since Dickerson have left out the Philippines (excluding Palawan) and the Moluccas from the definition of Wallacea (e.g. Whitmore 1981:xii), but this monograph is focused upon human rather than natural history. The ‘full Wallacea’ between the Sunda and Sahul continental shelves (or between Huxley’s Line of 1868 and the combined Lydekker (1896) and Weber (1894) Lines, see George 1981: Fig. 2.4) is a far more useful and meaningful concept. No land bridges ever crossed the full expanse of this region of deep seas and steeply plunging coastlines during the Pleistocene Ice Ages, even during glacial maxima, and humans migrating from Taiwan or Sundaland towards New Guinea and Australia always had to cross sea gaps between islands to reach their goals. This monograph is focused on archaeological results from just one small group of islands within this intriguing Wallacean zone of animal and human biogeographical transition, a zone that has always formed both a bridge and a barrier between the Asian and Australian continents.","PeriodicalId":349878,"journal":{"name":"The Spice Islands in Prehistory: Archaeology in the Northern Moluccas, Indonesia","volume":"30 12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129971654","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
