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. |

[edit]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. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
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. ![]() |
