This reminded me of the "black houses" of the Outer Hebrides. They also
featured rustic walls and thatched roofs. U.K. officials tried to move
natives of the Outer Hebrides to modern apartments, yet those who moved
became increasingly susceptible to diseases like tuberculosis. It turned
out that, when the natives abandoned their "black houses," they also gave
up traditional farming practices and eating habits. It was these
traditional habits that had previously kept them healthy and immune. I
wonder what else may be lost in Hainan natives' transition into modern life.
Here is an example of the slippery boundary between backwardness and
profound wisdom (in the Outer Hebrides): " it is important that we look
further into the matter of the smoked thatch. I was advised by the old
residents that a serious conflict existed between them and the health
officials who came from outside to their island. The latter blamed the
smoke for the sudden development of tuberculosis in acute form, and they
insisted that the old procedure be entirely discontinued. For this purpose
the government gave very substantial assistance in the building of new and
modern homes. The experienced natives contended that the oat crop would not
mature in that severe climate without being fertilized with the smoked
thatch...I brought some of this smoked thatch with me both for chemical
analysis and for testing for the influence on plant growth. This was done
by adding different quantities of the smoked thatch to a series of pots in
which oat seeds were planted. In Fig. 8 will be seen the result. The pot to
the right shows the result of planting the oats in a sandy soil almost like
that of the Islands of the Outer Hebrides. The oats only grew to the fuzzy
limited condition shown. As increasing amounts of this thatch were added to
the soil, there was an increase in the ruggedness of the plants so that in
the last pot to the left tall stalks were developed heavily loaded with
grain which ripened by the time the growth shown in the other pots had
occurred. The chemical analysis of the thatch showed that it contained a
quantity of fixed nitrogen and other chemicals resulting from the peat
smoke circulating through the thatch. This explains the confidence of the
hardy old natives who insisted on being permitted to continue the smoking
of the thatch even though they did not live in the house." (Nutrition and
Physical Degeneration, Weston A. Price)
