Weapons & Fighting Arts of the Indonesian Archipelago
by Deaeger, Donn F.
1-240470
The weapons and fighting arts of the Indonesian archipelago form the substance of this book, which depicts the cultures of such places as Java, Bali, Sumatra, and the Madura. The reader discovers the varied combative forms of the islands, from empty-hand techniques to the use of such weapons as spears, whips, knives, and the dagger called the kris. He learns of the links between the fighting arts of the continent (China and India) and the Indonesian forms, and of the first contacts with the Europeans. He meets the Menangkabau warriors, the Alefuru head-hunters, and the Celates pirates, and learns their combat methods.
