This article describes the relationships between the Yolngu, an Aboriginal people from northern Australia, and the Macassans, a Muslim fishing people from the Indonesian island of Celebes. It discusses some of the mythical and ritual interpretations of these historical contacts, and how trading networks dating back to the seventeenth century were called upon to make sense of the social, economic and political upheaval that was the mark of colonization, in order to bring out current interpretations of this history across the larger Pacific region.
