"Lake Sentani, on the north coast of New Guinea near the famous war-time base at Hollandia, was the home of a remarkable native culture. Its roots can be traced to the Bronze Age Dongson culture of Indonesia, but it has been largely extinguished in recent years by Western infuences. ... [This] is the first monograph to be published on this important primitive art style, which has never before been adequately studied." (dj) includes figures, drums, and other sculpture forms.
