The object traces back to the collection of the Ethnological Museum Berlin (old inv. no. VI 8776) and came to the Linden Museum in 1939 through an object exchange with Arthur Speyer. It was acquired by the physician Eduard Arning (1855-1936), who stayed in the Kingdom of Hawai'i from 1883-1886. Text: Ulrich Menter
