Evidence for early trade in northern Melanesia

Year: 1972

Type: article

Abstract: A recent paper by Ambrose and Green (1972) presents conclusive evidence for the widespread transport of New Britain obsidian in the 1st millenium BC. Excavations in 1967 on Buka and Sohano Islands, New Guinea, suggest that pottery also may have been included in this trading.
