Abstract


This paper deals with explorers' encounters with natives in eighteenth century Pacific and how these encounters where interpreted by the formers and current anthropologists' as well. Though important as that encounters might have been, this paper is primarily concerned with anthropologist encounters with time and how such encounters have laid bare some of the way we do our interpretations. A big deal of the paper focuses on the death of Captain Cook and the Sahlins / Obeyesekere controversy prompted by the interpretation of this event.
