Donated by Eugen Brandeis (Imperial Governor of the Marshall Islands) April 1900, collected by Antonie Brandeis (Jaluit) /Donated by Eugen Brandeis (Imperial Governor of the Marshall Islands) April 1900, collected by Antonie Brandeis (Jaluit)
Object no. 118 (Object list Antonie Brandeis, 1st consignment 1900, SAF D.Sm 35/1): "Kette. Marmat. Black shells".
According to the collector, the necklace comes from the Marshall Islands. On the old index card, the attribution Gilbert Islands and second consignment (1901) are noted. Neither appears to be correct.
The term "marmat" can be found in the collector's object list and was also included in the MNM's old inventory, but is probably a spelling mistake. In the Marshall Islands, the term "marmar" would be appropriate for necklaces of this type, while in Kiribati (Gilbert Islands) it is more likely to refer to flower wreaths.
