Presenting for the first time over 150 artifacts from the author’s private collection, this book offers a rare glimpse into an area of art history and prehistory which has hitherto been insufficiently explored and underappreciated. The richly illustrated text traces the origins of artifacts from the Lesser Sundas islands east of Bali, back to the time when the islands were first inhabited by mankind, before establishing them firmly in their historical and cultural context. Providing invaluable insight into the beginnings of what is popularly known as Oceanic art, this volume is essential for anyone interested in art history, archeology or Indonesian culture.
