The former represented \u201clifelong forms of asymmetric exchange continued between the groups with only slight variation between the ethnicities\u201d (Shepherd 2014); instead the latter, as part of a network of sacred houses, was representative of Timor cosmology and related to genealogy. Indeed, the exchange of people and products occurred through the rituals in the sacred houses, as in the case of the conceptual unification of sexual reproduction and agricultural production with the narratives of life and death (Shepherd 2014).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Conclusions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n As history and mythology illustrate, pre-modern societies related economic and non-economic structures in a network of transactional relations reflecting particular social arrangements; indeed, communal arrangements determined a specific solution to the necessities of a given environment (Mumtaz 1994). As in the past, the change required to integrate in the actual world economic order cannot be induced with centralized policies or forced integration; whenever it occurred it was the result of progressive and cumulative steps that in turn enabled change in social, cultural, economic, and politic forms of aggregation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
