Salawati

Place, Island

The only island in the Elysium Sea with true agriculture, whose people herd boars and grow yams, bananas, plantains, sugar cane and breadfruit around the towns of Yuku and Kiowa; the Kiowans are skilled boatbuilders who sail to Lemuria and Mu.

From the book

Only the Salawati tribe has truly mastered agriculture in the Elysium Sea, and they are the one people there who draw more of their living from the land than from the ocean. They have founded two small towns, Yuku and Kiowa, and farmed much of the country between them, herding boars and growing yams, bananas, plantains, sugar cane and breadfruit. The people of Kiowa are also fine boatbuilders and navigators who regularly voyage all the way to Lemuria and Mu. Dissidents who opposed farming were expelled and settled Tamaka.
