In 1638, van Diemen made a contract with Hamza, Sultan of Ternate. This contract is the oldest extant text in a Papuan language. I briefly talked about it in the episode on Ternate of the A Language I Love Is... podcast with @dannybate.bsky.social 4/4

I recently came across a nice example for why historical records are crucial for linguistic reconstruction, even when the contemporary languages are well attested. 🧵
The related Papuan languages Ternate, Tidore and Sahu (North Halmahera) have very similar Phasal Polarity markers (see Table). 1/5

Fun fact: The last major branch of Indo-European to be attested in writing is Albanian in 1462.
The first Papuan language attested in writing is Ternate. The first documented words are found in a manuscript from ~1544. Less than 100 years later!
The first extensive text is from 1638 (see below).

In the case of Ternate, we know that Dutch officials learned Ternate but not of many Ternate people learning Dutch. The Dutch officials were likely to use Dutch words while speaking Ternate, explaining the many Dutch words from the administrative domain found in Ternate. 4/5
