She didn't specify their food sources. I've been assuming an oceanic 'warm' temperate climate, with easy access to plentiful sea food. Rice should be acceptable. What is "champa"? (Google tells me about a Hindu kingdom and that it is a named location in Mexico, but nothing I can find about an agricultural method.)
