The Asiatic Articles

[edit]

[edit]

There are thousands of references to Lascars in Australian newspapers, sometimes derided as Mohammedan or prophet worshippers [1] and later as Koepangers (Dutch spelling for people of Kupang, British Borneo or Indonesia broadly)Tradimus (talk) 14:34, 27 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
