东南亚-太平洋地区史前时代使用的大多数或所有船只和钻井平台可能已经完全从记录中消失，而欧洲人在17世纪记录的那些可能是相对较新的创新。这篇文章的目的是向文献介绍一种关于古代船和钻井平台设计的新信息来源。这个来源就是岩画中对船只的描述中所编码的信息。本文对来自东帝汶图图阿拉地区的18幅船只图像进行了技术鉴定。©2007作者
It is possible that most or all boats and rig‐types used in prehistoric times in the South‐East Asia‐Pacific region have completely disappeared from the record, and that those recorded by Europeans in the 17th century may have been relatively recent innovations. The purpose of this paper is to introduce to the literature a new source of information on ancient boat and rig designs. This source is the information encoded in rock‐art depictions of watercraft. This paper provides a technical appraisal of 18 images of watercraft from the Tutuala region of East Timor. © 2007 The Authors
