Talepakemalai: Lapita and Its Transformations in the Mussau Islands of Near Oceania - Monumenta Archaeologica
Patrick Vinton Kirch
This book is a study of the Lapita Cultural Complex, a region spanning both Melanesia and Western Polynesia. The Lapita culture has been interpreted as the archaeological manifestation of a diaspora of Austronesian-speaking people (specifically of Proto-Oceanic language) who rapidly expanded from the New Guinea region into Remote Oceania.
