Description
English: The Malayans as they are not so much addicted to trading as the Chinese, live for the most part upon fishing; their boats are made after the Indian [Indonesian] fashion, with large sails [tanja sails]. They have also a governor of their own, who lives in the Rhinoceroses Gracht, whereabouts most of them have their dwelling-places. They wear light callicoes or silks, though some of their women of fashion use flowered and striped silk; their hair, which is very black, they tie behind in a knot, but the men wear apiece of cloath about their heads. Those few merchants that are among them, are next to the Chinese, accounted the cunningest traders; the houses of the Malayans are but very indifferently built there, being covered with leaves, and planted round with coco-trees. They have a custom of chewing the Bethel [pinang] leaves continually, and take tobacco through sugar-canes lackered over with stone ball.
Bahasa Indonesia: Orang-orang Melayu, karena mereka tidak begitu kecanduan berdagang seperti orang-orang Cina, sebagian besar hidup dari mencari ikan; perahu mereka dibuat menurut gaya India [Indonesia], dengan layar besar [layar tanja]. Mereka juga memiliki seorang gubernur sendiri, yang tinggal di Rhinoceroses Gracht, di mana sebagian besar dari mereka mempunyai tempat tinggal. Mereka memakai kain kaliko atau sutra tipis, meskipun beberapa perempuan mereka menggunakan sutra berbunga-bunga dan bergaris; rambut mereka, yang sangat hitam, mereka ikat ke belakang, tetapi laki-laki memakai sehelai kain di kepala mereka. Beberapa pedagang yang ada di antara mereka, setelah orang Cina, dianggap sebagai pedagang paling licik; Rumah-rumah orang Melayu dibangun dengan sangat biasa-biasa saja di sana, ditutupi dedaunan, dan ditanami pohon kelapa. Mereka mempunyai kebiasaan mengunyah daun pinang terus-menerus, dan mengambil tembakau melalui batang tebu yang ditaburi bola batu.

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise.

Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.


You must also include a United States public domain tag to indicate why this work is in the public domain in the United States. Note that a few countries have copyright terms longer than 70 years: Mexico has 100 years, Jamaica has 95 years, Colombia has 80 years, and Guatemala and Samoa have 75 years. This image may not be in the public domain in these countries, which moreover do not implement the rule of the shorter term. Honduras has a general copyright term of 75 years, but it does implement the rule of the shorter term. Copyright may extend on works created by French who died for France in World War II ( more information), Russians who served in the Eastern Front of World War II (known as the Great Patriotic War in Russia) and posthumously rehabilitated victims of Soviet repressions ( more information).


This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.


Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
