A note on Ade

Abstract

In a recent issue of Bijdragen tot de Taal-, Land- en Volkenkunde, Andrew McWilliam undertakes an interesting study of the elusive traditional Timorese domain of Ade, which is often mentioned in Portuguese and Dutch sources of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. His conclusion is briefly that there is a close affinity with the domain of Vemasse (Oymassin) on the north coast of present Timor Leste. While I agree with his conclusion, I would like to point out a few unpublished Dutch sources which provide more detailed information on Ade and its location.
