Summary
| Description |
English: This is an excellent example of early 20th century Micronesian Armour collected by Frank Burnett, a Canadian writer, in Kiribati in 1902. The armour is made of finely woven coir that covers the whole body and its breastplate is intriguingly made of stingray skin. The neck protector has rows of a diamond design pattern in black on dark brown ground. This item was donated to the UBC Museum of Anthropology in Vancouver, Canada, in 1927 where its museum catalogue number is C1491 a-e
Français : Voici un excellent exemple d'armure micronésienne du début du XXe siècle collectée par Frank Burnett, un écrivain canadien, à Kiribati en 1902. L'armure est faite de fibre de coco finement tissée qui couvre le corps entier et son plastron est curieusement fait de peau de raie. La protection couvrant le cou porte des rangées de motifs en forme de losanges ou de diamants marquées en noir sur le fond brun sombre. Cet équipement a été donné au Musée d'anthropologie de Vancouver, au Canada, en 1927, où il est conservé sous le numéro de catalogue C1491 a-e. |
