Indonesia wood based craftsmanship
The name Indonesia derives from the Latin Indus , meaning “India”, and the Greek nesos , meaning “island”.The name dates to the 18th century, far predating the formation of independent Indonesia.In 1850, George Earl, an English ethnologist , proposed the terms Indunesians — and, his preference, Malayunesians — for the inhabitants of the “Indian Archipelago or Malayan Archipelago”. In the same publication, a student of Earl’s, James Richardson Logan, used Indonesia as a synonym for Indian Archipelago . However, Dutch academics writing in East Indies publications were reluctant to use Indonesia .
