Pieter Anton Tiele

Pieter Anton Tiele (18 January 1834, Leiden - 22 January 1889, Utrecht) was for many years the librarian of Utrecht University.

Among these the most noteworthy are: De Opkomst van het nederlandsch Gezag in Oost-Indie (1886); De Vestiging der Portugeezen, in Indie (1873), and other books on the early Portuguese colonization in Maritime Southeast Asia.[1]

gollark: Mastodon's cool, though.
gollark: I suppose they might if it would reduce their moderation burden, but people would complain ("OMG TWITTER IS HARBORING THE OUTGROUP!")...
gollark: I doubt it.
gollark: We had Cambridge Analytica and a gazillion random other things, and yet people probably just go "hmm, this sounds slightly bad, but abstract and not really relevant to me, and besides all my friends are here" and completely ignore it!
