Carlotta - the museum database

1906.56 :: Engdahl, Theodor

Object description

Samling från Somalia, Somalihalvön (Afrikas horn), (större delen av Somalihalvön är torrområde)., består av bl.a.:

Böneskinn, radband, amuletter, rökelse, medicin, modell av hydda, kärl, jakt/hushållsföremål, fisknät, verktyg, kläder, knivar, trumma, mattor, smycken, spjut. Brit. Östafrika. Ital. Östafrika /US

Flera av föremålen är dokumenterade av Daher bin Abdi (1884-1915), född i Kismaayo, Somalia, som besökte Etnografiska museet i Stockholm runt 1906. Den handskrivna katalogen refererar på flera ställen till "somaliern" eller "en somalier, som i Stockholm genomgått samlingen", vilket alltså med stor sannolikhet är bin Abdi då han var elev vid Johannelunds missionsinstitut under perioden (Tyberg 2014:12).

Important to know about the information in the online collection database

Users of the database are warned that some records may include language or terminology dating from the 19th and 20th centuries which depicted people in ways that are obsolete and/or offensive. We are conscious that the inclusion of such terminology is problematic. As an institution, we have chosen to include this historic information in our database because it is part of the documentation for the object, photograph, or archival item. Where known, objects associated with, or photographs depicting, ritual or ceremonial activity have been hidden in the publicly accessible database as there may be restrictions relating to the age, gender, initiation and ceremonial status or clan of the person who may see them. The database may also include the names of deceased persons, which could cause sadness or distress, particularly to relatives of these people.
