Throw in some Scandanavian shanties. Bengali, Japanese, West African and all up and down the windward and leeward islands of the Carribean along with the Spanish Main.

Don't forget Platdeutch, Freisen and lowland Scots in the obscure categories.

Arab shanties were hard to come by in Arabia. I and contacts tried for a year and didn't come with anything. Old is considered embarassing.
