Beschreibungen/Notizen

• The peoples of Indonesia and Melanesia which were united in the Dutch East Indies have even now developed scarcely any industrial life and the greater part of the population lives from the produce of the land. By describing the different forms of land cultivation, we can therefore claim to have given a picture of the economic basis of native civilizations, this the more so as the other economic activities like trade and industry were largely determined by their agricultural basis as we shall later see.
