Provenance
The provenance of this object is unclear. An old inventory number is missing. In the new inventory book, the object is described as a "scraping instrument made of 2 small shells on a wooden handle for hollowing out coconuts to make vessels." and assigned to the Brandeis collection, which is also how it was transferred to the 1970 index card. However, it cannot be clearly assigned to either of the two Brandeis items from 1900/1901.
