Bag
Bags (kete) played an important role as a container for food and for the storage and transport of various things. They are made from dyed and undyed leaf strips of New Zealand flax (harakeke; Phormium tenax) and a climbing plant (kiekie; Freycinetia banksii). For this bag, made before 1899 in Aotearoa/New Zealand, the historical inventory book notes: "New, made after old patterns". Text: Ulrich Menter

The Linden
Museum received the bag 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 bag. The weaver of the bag remains unknown. Text: Ulrich
