Note 154 — LECTURE VIII. INSULAR AND LITTORAL PEOPLES.
Reading edition
See A. B. Meyer, in Mittheilungen der Wiener Anthropologischen Gesellschaft, 1874; and A. R. Wallace, Australasia, pp. 452-456. The great diversity in color, hair, etc., is commented on by Dr. O. Finsch, Anthropologische Ergebnisse einer Reise in der Sudsee, p. 34. The difference is sometimes by villages, some being quite fair and called “white Papuas,” though of pure blood ostensibly.
