Donated by Eugen Brandeis (Imperial Governor of the Marshall Islands) April 1900 or November 1901, collected by Antonie Brandeis (Jaluit) /Donated by Eugen Brandeis (Imperial Governor of the Marshall Islands) April 1900 or November 1901, collected by Antonie Brandeis (Jaluit) The provenance of this object is unclear. An old inventory number is missing. In the New Inventory Book, the object is part of a group of 16 "wooden instruments" attributed to the Brandeis donation. On the index card from 1970, it is recorded together with II/1375 and assigned to the 1st Brandeis donation from April 1900, but it is unclear how the dating came about. It may be a wooden needle for sewing pandanus leaves or a chisel for calfing, e.g. no. 45-46 of the 2nd consignment (old inventory numbers 2165+2166) or the chisel from no. 44 (see II/1389).
