This book is a study of considerable importance for an understanding of maritime relations in the Arafura and Timor Seas. The Arafura and Timor Seas link Australia and Indonesia. These seas provide more than just a source of shared resources; they also offer a common history of maritime involvement. This book explores this critical, but little known maritime history and considers its implication for the present. Boats to Burn focuses on the role of a distinctive population, the Bajo who are remarkable for their sailing and fishing traditions. Known as the `sea nomads' of the region, the Bajo have established themselves throughout eastern Indonesia searching out marine resources like sea-cucumber, shark fin, turtle and trochus shells and feeding these products back into a trade network linking island Southeast Asia to the Asian continent.
