Kada sam prvi put dosao na Novu Gvineju 60-ih godina proslog veka, na nekim delovima ostrva jos je bila u upotrebi kamena sekira. Kamene alatke koriscene su svuda do dolaska Evropljana.
When I first came to New Guinea in the 1960s, people were still using stone tools like this axe in parts of the island, and before European arrival, people were using stone tools everywhere in New Guinea.
