Medieval Indonesia
In the 1600's the Portuguese
began trading in this region. By the 17th century the Dutch had taken control and
trading
was dominated by the Dutch East India Company. In 1977 the company fell into bankrupcy,
inspiring the Dutch
to claim direct colonial rule.
This is a typical village in the
central highlands of Indonesia.
