Preferred Own Stone Axes Educational They were found living in round houses and engaged in a very primitive form of agriculture to produce enough sweet potatoes to satisfy their needs. Anxious to obtain a number of the stone implements, the scientists offered to give steel knives and hatchets in return.

For the first few weeks conversation was carried on mainly by means of an improvised sign language, but after some time the explorers were able to learn many words of the strange new tongue. The tribe has not been named as yet, although people of the New Guinea high country are often referred to as the Pesechem.

The characteristics displayed by these specimens are said clearly to indicate ihe close relationship between New Guinea and the continent of Australia.
