On 2nd February 1648 the earth began to tremble around the stone fort situated at Lohayong (Lawayong), Solor, in what is now the Province of Nusa Tenggara Timur, eastern Indonesia. Major Willem van der Beek, together with the crew of 'den Wolff, safely anchored offshore in the protection of the calm Solor Strait, watched from its decks as the points and curtain walls of the fort collapsed. The walls at the entrance, built many years previously and masoned deep under the earth, were driven out with great force.Cannons flew out of the ramparts, and the mountain range behind the fort was riven asunder, while great rocks were thrown out of the earth. Four people died, including the small son of the new Dutch Commander, Hendrik ter Horst, and nine persons suffered in juries. The vats holding wine, butter, oil, brine, bacon and meat burst open, so that little was salvageable of the provisions recently brought by 'den Wolff. The earth tremors continued, but not severely, for several days. Through constant work from the garrison and sailors and help from the Solorese, who gave bamboo, palm leaves, wood and other material, van der Beek managed to make the fortress defensible again and to restore the dwellings and warehouses. This effort, however, was put to nought in May, when on the 24th the fort was once again badly shaken. No one was hurt this time, but the walls were split in several places. Reporting the destruction, ter Horst wrote that another such shock would finish the structure, which was a very old building (over eighty years since con struction), held together in place of chalk merely with stonelike earth. The main holes on the west side were made good with 116 palisade poles brought in within a few days by 'd'Zeemeuw', but the commander was unable to get the local leaders to order the preparation of lime ovens for repairs because the villagers needed to bring in their harvest (Tiele and Heeres 1895:418-22, 427; de Hullu 1903:90-91; Anonymous 1650:38-39).

The Migara-Kertsgama contains a list of dependencies of Majapahit, including a series of islands in eastern Indonesia, among them Galiyao, Sumba, Solot and Timur (Pigeaud 1962, IV:34). In a recent article van Fraassen (1976) has attempted to identify Galiyao with Kalao between Saleier and Flores. I shall try on the contrary to bring Galiyao back to the Solor Archipelago. It speaks in favor of van Fraassen's choice that the name Galiyao appears in a sequence of locations around Sulawesi, but as Pigeaud notes, the list has no order, six remote islands being mentioned for example between Solor and Timor. Kalao does indeed look more like Galiyao than do the designations of any of the other islands or districts which have been suggested from time to time, and the strength of van Fraassen's position lies in this similarity. There are a number of early sources for Galiyao. In a book first published in 1563, GalvAo (1944:85, 170) describes the first Portu guese expedition to the Moluccas as sailing in 1511 from Java past Bali, Lombok, Sumbawa, Solor, Galao and Malua (Alor). Pigafetta's account and chart of the "Victoria's" voyage into the Ombai Strait in January 1522 refer likewise to Galiau between Zolot and Mallua. Galian appears between Sulawesi and Buru on the world map by Ortelius of 1564. Mercator's world map of 1569 places Galiam, Noceuamor and Zolot incorrectly in the Flores Sea to the north of Alor (Vatter 1932, table 7). His later map of the Far East joins Pantar and Lembata into one island named Louballo (Mercator 1636). Linschoten's map of Asia shows Guliam between Solor and Alor, but like other sources of the time does not distinguish Lembata from Pantar (Lin schoten 1579-1592). The early map makers copied one another, and all those showing Galiyao derive one way or another evidently from Pigafetta.

In a recent essay on Karo Batak social organization with especial reference to Masri Singarimbun's very readable and accomplished ethnography (1975), Needham (1978: 146) has had occasion to refer to some of my own comments about the form of their terminological system. In particular he has drawn into contention my claim that the Karo Batak have a symmetric prescriptive terminology with asym metric features (1976: 389). He opposes (p. 142) to this interpretation his own to the effect that the Karo actually have "a modified form of asymmetric prescriptive terminology".. Furthermore, he dismisses (p. 143) the possibility that the Karo system may once have been symmetric before evolving towards asymmetry ? in this case alluding to one of his own theories (1967: 45-46). The first issue is whether the Karo have a marriage prescription. The ethnographer denies it, "the Karo do not prescribe or enjoin MBD or classificatory impal marriage" (p. 193). "Ghoice of a spouse among the Karo is not restricted to any one category of kinswoman or kins man" (p. 153). In my own view, the ethnography will bear the inter pretation that the terminology contains a categorical prescription, but the facts as set out do not conclusively rule out alternative ways of analyzing Karo terminology. On the other hand, there seems to be no doubt about what I called the asymmetric features of the terminology. Needham has written a carefully detailed demonstration of my point. In the first instance our disagreement is a trivial one about English usage. The English phrase "symmetric prescriptive terminology" without supplementary punc tuation can mean one of two things: (1) "a prescriptive terminology which is symmetric" or (2) "a terminology with a symmetric prescrip tion". Needham (1966, 1968) has already shown that these two senses need not be the same.
