11. CAMERON, John. 1865. Our tropical possessions in Malayan India: Being a descriptive account of Singapore, Penang, Province Wellesley, and Malacca; their peoples, products, commerce, and government. London: Smith, Elder and Co — includes description of “silent trade”, whereby payment (by a Tumongong of Johor) to aborigines for cutting a road was left at a designated point, to be collected at night when the Malays were no longer about [SN].

13. CANT, R. G. 1973. An historical geography of Pahang. Kuala Lumpur: Monograph no. 4, MBRAS — well-consulted study; on landscape changes due to large-scale commercial resource exploitation (1888–1939). Draws heavily from the British administrative records. As the author recognizes, analysis is poorly correlated with anthropology and archaeology: Orang Asli appear only in two ways—as objects in records and statistics and in proxy, through glimpses of the way traditional territories were being explored and eventually transformed [LTP]. Originally submitted 1973 as Ph.D. thesis (University of Malaya, Kuala Lumpur).
