Jacqueline de La Fontinelle
p. 39-43

Abstracts

Graminae have been classified apart fromweeds in the Ajië language (Houailou, New Caledonia). Their uses thatch, mats, threads and strings as well as knots of every kind to carry loads or prohibit picking fruit, trodding on a place abandoned after the death of a man, made them constantly present in every day life and during ceremonies yet graminae have not been cultivated as food crop.
