Kapa (tapa) (ceremonial object; Unknown, 18th century; 1770s; Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa (Wellington, Welling...; FE001475/4) | |
Note: This piece of Hawaiian kapa (Hawaiian barkcloth), with three other similar pieces, are part of a small but important group of Pacific textiles presented to the Dominion Museum (Te Papa's predecessor) by the trustees of Alexander Turnbull's estate after his death. A note in the museum's register at the time indicates that at least some of these textiles were collected during the Pacific voyages of eighteenth-century English explorer James Cook. However, the Cook provenance is so far unproven. | |
