Kabua, Iroij :: kung

Object description

Kung Kabua (Iroij eller Irooj Kabua), Marshallöarna, 1880-talet. Han mottog Vanadis-expeditionen 1884 och donerade föremål till expeditionen. Det finns också dokumentation om att han ingått avtal med Tyskland 1885 (Treaty of friendship between the Marshallese chiefs and the German Empire, se http://marshall.csu.edu.au/Marshalls/html/history/Treaty1885.html)

Den man som syns på bilden (bilden är från Marshalls Digital Micronesia, under historiska bilder men kommer ursprungligen från Krämer, Augustin (1906)Hawaii, Ostmikronesien und Samoa. Stuttgart: Schweizerbartsche Verlagsbuchhandlung. page 214) är enligt uppgift tagen 1895 och föreställer Orooj Kabua. Det är sannolikt, att det rör sig om samma Kabua som var med vid Vanadis 1884.

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.
