Bait
Hawaiian fishermen used special baits and hooks to catch squid. Attracted by shiny cowrie shells and moving plant fibres, the animals could be pulled out of the water with the hooks. Text: Ulrich Menter

The object
traces back to the collection of the Ethnological Museum Berlin (old
inv. no. VI 8505) 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
