Te Tauti (Porcupine) fish helmet
https://collections.tepapa.govt.nz/object/267666
This is a warrior's helmet, made from the dried skin of a porcupine fish (Diodon sp., probably Diodon hystrix), lined with plaited pandanus strips. The skin is oriented so that the tail forms a peak at the back and the two fins form wings on either side. The lining has been partly plaited to fit, like a rounded basket, but then cut and overlapped in three places so that it fits snugly. The base is edged with a roll of plant fibre which has been neatly sewn to the edge of the skin with a blanket stitch in fine twisted cord of light and dark fibres.

Austronesia
I love cultures a lot.
I love learning about the history and the nations.
Recently, some 'awe' facts that I just found out that Taiwan has indigenous people, and moreover the region could be the origin of Austronesian people and cultures! This took me back to the time I had with a Taiwanese friend talking about China and Taiwan 'complex' political situation and confirmed where the roots, "who was there in Taiwan before?", but I didn't get any answer that could lead to this new fact I just gained. Never did it cross my mind that Austronesians had resided in Taiwan, originally. Thus, a really mind-opening fact for me.
Additionally, I've been watching a lot of Austronesian-related videos on YouTube. So many interesting facts! From the appearance, traditions and even languages. It's fascinating to know that all of the roots of all these amazing cultures come from the same dot that is Austronesia... spanning from wide area of South East Asia, East Asia, the Pacific (including Hawaii), even to Africa (Madagascar)! As some of you might know, I've always been passionate about cultures, especially in Asia-Pacific. But knowing these more open my eyes wider! Indeed this is something I'd love to discover and understand. I love cultures and history.
Ps. More interesting ones like Austronesians being (some of) Japanese original cultures... As might be for Yayoi and Jōmon people.
Agh! I love this so much!

While sugarcane has defined Caribbean islands since the onset of European settler colonization, a little-known African species, guinea grass, has invaded sugar plantations from within. Cultivated to intensify sugar production, guinea grass ironically became a weed of the plantations while providing material and spiritual resources to enslaved and marooned Africans and their descendants. [...]
While sugarcane was imported from Austronesia, guinea grass hails from the western coast of Africa. Sugar was the principal crop of many Caribbean plantations; guinea grass was imported as fodder for the oxen that labored in the fields and for the cattle that fed the planters. [...]. A 1707 account by Hans Sloane, whose collections would form the core of the British Museum, describes the grass (then known as “Scotch grass”) as widespread in Barbados and Jamaica [...].
The imported grass was celebrated by eighteenth- and nineteenth-century planters for its high grazing quality. Bryan Edwards sang its praises in Jamaica, writing that it may be considered as next to the sugar-cane, in point of importance; as most of the grazing and breeding farms or pens throughout the island were originally created, and are still supported, chiefly by means of this invaluable herbage. For Edwards, guinea grass had an almost equal status to sugar cane because it could feed “the plenty of horned cattle both for the butcher and planter.” [...] By 1786, the African grass had become naturalized in Guadeloupe, and, by 1813, it had reached Mississippi, writes Parsons. It spread widely throughout Central and South America [...].
Indeed, one observer in New Granada (modern-day Colombia) was so enthusiastic as to argue that whoever had introduced the plant deserved a statue “as high as New York’s Statue of Liberty” [...].
In Cuba, the grass appears in an 1816 report of José Antonio de la Ossa, the first director of the Botanical Garden of Havana, who wrote: “It is an abundant and convenient pasture grass, because it multiplies its stalks in the same way as Sugar cane[.]”
Like Sloane and Edwards, Ossa compares guinea grass to sugarcane. The two foreign grasses seemed to them similar in morphology and function, because they both [...] promoted the economic development of the islands’ cash crop societies. [...] While sugar was introduced to Cuba long before guinea grass, it was guinea grass that allowed for the intensification of Cuban sugar cultivation with large herds of oxen.
---
Yet something strange happened in the history of this ostensibly symbiotic relationship.
Although guinea grass was meant to support the sugar economy by feeding its beasts of burden, ironically, it became a virulent weed to the sugarcane plants. By 1977, guinea grass was rated the number one weed to sugarcane in Cuba. In 2012, the journal of the National Botanical Garden of Cuba (Revista del Jardín Botánico Nacional) listed it as [...] an invasive species of greatest concern. In this way, the two imported grasses became stalky antagonists in the daily competition for light, water, and soil nutrients.
Their cultural meanings, however, had long since diverged. If sugarcane supported the economic interests of European planters, guinea grass was appropriated by enslaved and marooned Africans across the Caribbean for practical and religious purposes.
Diasporic Africans in the Virgin Islands used the dried grass to make masquerade costumes for Carnival and other festivals. In Cuba, priests used it to make omiero, [...] of the Afro-Cuban Reglá de Ochá religion.
Moreover, some of the enslaved canecutters used an ancestral West African technique to thatch their mud huts with guinea grass. [...] In fact, the famed maroon Esteban Montejo described using this method of thatching during his escape from a Cuban sugar plantation in the late nineteenth century: [...] I had never left the plantation before. I walked uphill, downhill, in every direction. [...] My feet were blistered and my hands were swollen and festering. I camped under a tree. I made myself a shelter of guinea grass in a few hours and I stayed there four or five days. [...]
Guinea grass has continued to take on new meanings for Caribbean writers in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. In Alejandro Aguilar’s 1997 short story “Landscape of Clay,” [...] [t]he untamed grass, like the cadets’ expressions of sexuality, subverts the rigid structure of the institution. Likewise, the storyteller in the 2002 play In the Time of the Revolution by the Guadeloupean writer Maryse Condé bemoans the fact that “people’s dreams are not made to grow freely like guinea grass on the banks and highways. Some people try to pull them up, to mow them down, to dry them out, to burn them and see them go up in smoke.” [...] In undermining the economic ambitions of the plantation system, guinea grass has come to represent acts of subversion [...].

It’s a nice thought, but the timeline doesn’t support it.
If Homo Sapiens dodged an unrelated extinction event rather than being the extinction event, then we’d see no correlation between the extinction of human species (and other large fauna) and the arrival of Homo Sapiens in an area.
But we don’t see that. There’s a strong correlation between Homo Sapiens arriving in a location such as Austronesia, Europe, or the Americas, and the extinction of large mammals and human species there. Which suggests that Homo Sapiens directly or indirectly caused that extinction.

Determining Indonesia’s age is so hard lol we would be malding so hard if insinuated Indonesia is only as old as the colonial Indonesia/VOC-Dutch East Indies era also it doesn’t make much sense bc the idea of unified Nusantara (that we base our current ideology on) has existed since Majapahit era (AD 1300 around).
-‘old but not that old’
-maybe. Idk
-Nenek moyangku seorang pelaut ril Indonesia was born in the sea, he was alrd sailing as a baby. Couldn’t write nor read so he didn’t even remember how old he actually is because he was busy sailing and playing, not writing stuff down
-India and China are like ‘guru’ to Indonesia, not actual parents because on average we don’t exactly share direct genetical link but we are I think more related to mainland China than mainland India. Still not China’s actual kid. But India and China had started writing records about Nusantara before we did it ourselves.
-Indonesia is not just Austronesian, but also Asiatic even tho we are mainly Austronesian I guess. But how do u determine our genetics when we are mixed like mad like seriously??
-Speaking about parents I guess Indonesia has one ‘old’ Austronesia/Nusantara parent. Idk the other parent, could be more Asiatic could be more Australian. Maybe Indonesia has more than two parents this is tbh most likely.
-When Ned came they actually looked the same age around but Indonesia is likely older. No I don’t receive complaints
-Masindo isn’t Muslim or he’s not like. Dogmatic Muslim. He does syncretism like mad because kearifan lokal. I hc he’s a very spiritual dude and all religions are the same to him and equally valid.
-ok more thoughts later

Melanesia Medieval (Moluccas Papua Fiji Vanuatu Solomon Island Austronesia)
youtube
The colonizers destroyed our peaceful nations and then divided us with their stupid colorism system. These shit people calls everyone with light skin white and yet tell everyone who has dark skin different.
If you can do with one, then why can't we see the same with the others? Simply because it destroys their negative stereotypes about dark skin humans and Africans as not being intelligent enough to travel anywhere unless they transported them.
The out of Africa migration is real and yet most people believe the liars that we are all slaves even though our true human history tells a completely different story.

Infodump about your countryhuman aus please.
AGHOASOFKFNG You don't know that you just triggered secrets buried deep in the archives and I will thank you for that anonymous.
Soooo it has been a while since I've made au particularly in the countryhumans fandom but the survivor one is one my fav and my biggest
Basically it's a post apocalyptic universe where everything crumbled to chaos including Neo Pangea (the fictional place where countryhumans and human born in the place lives). Though the huge problem erupted mainly in developed countries (don't ask why I just saw how much shits US, western European countries and others are going and I was like "man wouldn't it be funny to see their people go apeshit lol") therefore less known territories are left out of the mess but that doesn't mean they don't get involved. That's why I came up with Tuvalu, Palau and Madagascar as protagonists.
There's also this another AU which is about Austronesia.
Actually I've been hyperfixated on oceanian and African countries since I've discovered Countryhumans and this only got amplified when I realized that Madagascar was part of the Austronesian family (which includes a few southeast Asian countries and the Pacific. Even Taiwan is involved! I swear it's really interesting-) which led me to think like "mmh what if I made a story where Proto-Austronesia (Melanesian/Polynesian origins alongside with Formosan tribes from Taiwan) actually used to be a giant country before it dissolved during colonisation?"
Unfortunately I didn't wrote everything about it yet because there's just do much to unpack (also mainly because I want to put mythical features in there alongside with history)
It was also heavily inspired by this video
https://youtu.be/LlHPOojeOeo?si=S2NisDRshhWMKS0y
Then there's something that everyone has been using a lot but I wanted to put my part in it too : where colonial powers come back and claim "what they have lost". It's basically similar like the other stories you've seen on Wattpad just the difference is like always I would probably focus more on underrated countries (like Mozambique- I've also started to write about it since 2 years actually!)
And last but not least a fantasy au where countries would have folklore attributes and live in separate worlds (Yk something like Greece lives in Olympia, the Nordic countries in Valhalla, Madagascar in Ambodrobe ect). Don't have a specific plot idea for this yet but planning to!
Anyway I have others au but those are my main one and I'll probably do a separate post about it lol :')-
Either way I'm glad you asked and it was fun to write all of this💕

Tanaman jahe berasal dari Asia Pasifik dan bisa ditemukan di India sampai Cina. Di Indonesia jahe juga banyak tumbuh di berbagai daerah sehingga memiliki banyak julukan, yakni halia dari Aceh, Bahing dari Batak Karo, Sipadeh dari Minangkabau, Jahi dari Lampung, Jahe dari Sunda, Jae dari Jawa dan Bali, Jhai dari Madura, Melito dari Gorontalo, Goraka dari Ternate dan masih banyak julukan lainnya.
Jenis – Jenis Tanaman Jahe
Tanaman jahe terbagi menjadi 3 jenis, yaitu jahe gajah, jahe emprit dan jahe merah. Perbedaan dari ketiga jahe ini bisa dilihat dari indosuper, bentuk dan warna yang dimiliki, mari ketahui penjelasannya di bawah ini!
Jahe Gajah
Dibandingkan jahe emprit dan jahe merah, rimpang dari jahe gajah adalah yang terbesar dan gemuk. Cara terbaik untuk mengonsumsi jahe gajah adalah saat saat muda ataupun tua dan bisa sebagai jahe segar atau olahan.
Jahe Emprit
Jahe emprit memiliki ruas yang kecil dan sedikit menggembung. Kandungan minyak atsiri yang ada pada jahe emprit lebih tinggi dari jahe gajah yang menyebabkan rasa pedas yang lebih berasa, tetapi seratnya juga lebih tinggi. Biasanya jahe emprit akan dipanen saat sudah tua dan lebih cocok dijadikan ramuan obat – obatan atau bisa dengan mengekstrak kandungan oleoresin dan minyak atsiri yang ada.
Jahe Merah
Perbedaan jahe merah dan jahe biasa adalah dibandingkan tanaman jahe lainnya, bentuk jahe merah adalah yang terkecil. Namun, jahe merah juga memiliki kesamaan dengan jenis lainnya, seperti minyak atsiri yang juga merupakan bagian dari kandungan jahe merah, sehingga khasiat jahe merah cocok untuk digunakan sebagai bahan ramuan untuk obat – obatan. Seperti jahe emprit, jahe merah juga biasanya dipanen saat sudah tua.
Sejarah Tanaman Jahe
Khasiat jahe telah dimanfaatkan sejak ribuan tahun yang lalu. Jahe yang berasal dari Asia Pasifik telah digunakan untuk mengobati penyakit dengan diolah menjadi obat atau sebagai bahan makanan.
Berdasarkan buku Dangerous Taste, penyebaran tanaman jahe mulai di abad ke – 4 dimana bangsa Austronesia pergi menyeberangi kepulauan Melayu mulai dari Cina dan Taiwan. Menurut Ibnu Batuta, seorang penjelajah berkebangsaan Maroko di abad ke – 14, para penjelajah Austronesia membawa jahe dalam pelayaran dan menanamnya di pulau yang mereka kunjungi sehingga menyebar.
Bangsa Austronesia menggunakan jahe sebagai rempah – rempah yang digunakan dalam makanan, untuk menghangatkan diri serta sebagai obat sehingga jahe ditanam di tempat yang mereka kunjungi, yakni negara yang ada di Asia Pasifik.
Di Cina sendiri, Jahe telah digunakan lebih dari 2,000 tahun sebagai bahan obat – obatan tradisional dengan manfaat yang didapat dari jahe adalah untuk mengobati KP09 , mual dan sakit perut. Selain itu, fungsi jahe sebagai rempah – rempah masak telah digunakan di Asia sekitar 4,400 tahun.
