spelling Objects, Histories and EncountersBritish Guiana Seen Through BalataGeorge Samuel Jenman (1845 - 1902)BalataGuiana BritânicaEverard im Thurn (1852 - 1932)UID/HIS/04209/2013 SFRH/BD/45965/2008 SFRH/BPD/108236/2015Balata or bullet tree of Guiana was known as one of the finest forest trees of British Guiana. This paper is based on reports from the 19th and 20th centuries (mainly from George Jenman and Everard im Thurn), publications, newspapers, and correspondence on British Guiana’s balata, a rubber-like material. These references were cross-referenced with objects related to balata that are now preserved at the collection of Economic Botany, Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, as well as with contemporary reports from Guyanese Amerindian. By doing this, a more precise image of this less known rubber material from Guyana came forth, as well as the issues and histories behind it, namely the cross-cultural encounters, the objects significance and their context, and how the colony was managed. Despite the fact that balata was seen, during the last years of the 19th century, as an alternative commodity and a possible answer to the sugar crisis, not much was done to improve its tradeInstituto de História Contemporânea (IHC)RUNAlbuquerque, Sara2019-03-16T23:19:45Z20182018-01-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/article18application/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.21664/2238-8869.2018v7i1eng2238-8869PURE: 12011083http://periodicos.unievangelica.edu.br/index.php/fronteiras/article/view/2753/2233https://doi.org/10.21664/2238-8869.2018v7i1info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2024-03-11T04:30:11Zoai:run.unl.pt:10362/63564Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T03:33:57.479537Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
