The Linden
Museum received this object from the ethnologist Georg Thilenius
(1868-1937), who later became the director of the Museum für Völkerkunde
Hamburg. Between 1897 and 1899 Thilenius travelled, among other places,
to the Pacific Islands and New Zealand, where he most probably acquired
this fishing hook. Text: Ulrich Menter
