Yali from "Guns, Germs, and Steel"

I quote: "Yali has become posthumously famous in the West for his connection to the ethnographer Jared Diamond and the book Guns, Germs, and Steel, whom he met when Diamond visited PNG in 1972."

Yali's famous quote from GG&S is "Why is it that you white people developed so much cargo and brought it to New Guinea, but we black people had little cargo of our own?". I think there should at least be a section of this article addressing this definition of cargo, frequently used in countries such as New Guinea.

new section of historical added
