Pacific Presences volume 1
Oceanic Art and European Museums
2018 || Paperback || Erna Lilje e.a. || Sidestone Press

Resonant Histories
Pacific artefacts and the voyages of HMS Royalist 1890-1893
Paperback || Alison Clark || Sidestone Press
This book explores a complex relational assemblage, a collection of 1481 Pacific artefacts brought together by Captain Edward Henry Meggs Davis, during the three voyages of HMS Royalist between 1890-1893. The collection is indicative not just of a period of colonial collecting in the Pacific, but also the development of ethnographic collections in the UK and Europe. This period of history remains present in the social and cultural lives of many Pacific Islanders today.

No wonder kinship is the foundation of atoll societies, traditional and modern! This book presents a multidisciplinary, retrospective analysis of a Pacific Atoll People living in several countries but held together as a diaspora through notions of kinship.
The People have ancestral, cultural, social and continuing residential c...
Amotopoan Trails. A recent archaeology of Trio movements
Paperback || Jimmy Mans || Sidestone Press
In this book the concept of mobility is explored for the archaeology of the Amazonian and Caribbean region. As a result of technological and methodological progress in archaeology, mobility has become increasingly visible on the level of the individual. However, as a concept it does not seem to fit with current approaches in Amazonian archaeology, which favour a move away from viewing small mobile groups as models for the deeper past.Instead of ignoring such ethnographic tyrannies, in this bo...
