Provenance
Donated by Eugen Brandeis (Imperial Governor of the Marshall Islands) April 1900, collected by Ludwig Kaiser on Nauru on behalf of Eugen and Antonie Brandeis (Jaluit) /Donated by Eugen Brandeis (Imperial Governor of the Marshall Islands) April 1900, collected by Ludwig Kaiser on Nauru on behalf of Eugen and Antonie Brandeis (Jaluit) The provenance of this object is unclear. An old inventory number is missing. Almost certainly object no. 161 from the object list for the 1st consignment from Brandeis in April 1900: "A necklace. Shell, cocos and human tooth" (SAF D.Sm 35/1), origin Nauru. The object had originally been given the new inventory number II/0781, but this was already occupied by another object from the Brandeis collection (old inv. no. 2147), hence it was re-inventoried. The objects in the Brandeis collection from Nauru were apparently collected by the local district governor Ludwig Kaiser (SAF C3/241/1).
