555. ——. 1929. Among the forest dwarfs of Malaya. Trans. A. Chambers. London: Hutchinsons — perceives the Semang as primitive survivors of the paleolithic evolutionary stage of cultural development. Popular account containing vivid descriptions of the setting and portraits of Schebesta’s companions (mostly Jahai, though other groups encountered are also described). Introductory sections dealing with his arrival in Semang country is right out of the classic genre of explorers’ tales and a fascinating read. The much-consulted map on endpapers traces Schebesta’s route and gives location for a number of groups [LTP; ATR #1680].

556. ——. 1931. Grammatical sketch of the Ple-Temer language. Journal of the Royal Asiatic Society 9: 641–652 — this appears to be a study of a language or dialect that has since become extinct, as it does not correspond to the Temiar or to the Lanoh spoken in that area today. It therefore provides evidence of a former great linguistic variability along the Perak valley, which is suspected on other grounds too. [GB]
