Each volume deals with a particular domain of culture and/or environment and consists of a collection of essays each of which presents and comments on lexical reconstructions of a particular semantic field within that domain. Volume 2 examines how Proto Oceanic speakers described their geophysical environment. An introductory chapter discusses linguistic and archaeological evidence that locates the Proto Oceanic language community in the Bismarck Archipelago in the late 2nd millennium BC. The next three chapters investigate terms used to denote inland, coastal, reef and open sea environments, and meteorological phenomena. A further chapter examines the lexicon for features of the heavens and navigational techniques associated with the stars. How Proto Oceanic speakers talked about their environment is also described in three further chapters which treat property terms for describing inanimate objects, locational and directional terms, and terms related to the expression of time. 410 0$aPacific linguistics ;$v545. 606 $aEthnology$zOceania 606 $aHuman ecology$zOceania$vTerminology 606 $aProto-Oceanic language$xLexicology, Historical 606 $aEthnology$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00916106 606 $aManners and customs$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01007815 606 $aProto-Oceanic language$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01080016 607 $aOceania$2fast 615 0$aEthnology 615 0$aHuman ecology 615 0$aProto-Oceanic language$xLexicology, Historical. 615 7$aEthnology. 615 7$aManners and customs. 615 7$aProto-Oceanic language. 676 $a306.0995 700 $aRoss$b Malcolm$0801489 702 $aPawley$b Andrew 702 $aOsmond$b Meredith 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bUkMaJRU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910141819603321 996 $aThe lexicon of Proto-Oceanic$91991274 997 $aUNINA
