content: VERY BRITTLE PIECE OF DARK BROWN "MAMAKI" BARK CLOTH WITH DARKER BROWN OR BLACK STRIPED DECORATION. IT ALSO HAS A VERY FINE PARALLEL LINED WATERMARK. A DETACHED TAG READS, "SANDWICH ISLANDS BY MR. HOLMES, EX. EX. B[OX]. 31".

content: FROM CARD: "3600-10. CAT. 3609. ORIG. ? TAPA, SHEET. HAWAII. VERY SMALL SAMPLE TAKEN BY K.P. EMORY, 6/24/41."

content: Tapa was initially examined in a folded configuration measuring 28 x 61 cm. Tapa is made of a very thin cellulosic material. Tapa is traditionally identified in the collection as "mamaki" tapa based on its physical characteristics, brown color, and extremely fine parallel beater marks and poor condition. Adrienne Kaeppler, Curator for Oceania Ethnology, notes that these characteristics are the identifiers she was taught while working at the Bishop Museum, Honolulu, Hawaii. Once opened and examined, the designation of "mamaki" can be more questionable. The fibers, although heavily beaten and damaged, appear to have been quite long, which is also consistent for "wauke" (paper mulberry). The overall background light brown color on the tapa could have been decoratively applied and is not necessarily the inherent color of the fibers. As for this tapa and other similar ones identified by appearance as "mamaki" (e.g. E3531), the species of plant fibers used in the fabrication remains a question. Regular beater marks can be observed. They form very fine parallel lines, and when observed closely, there are cross-section patterns that are even finer (main parallel lines are 1.5 mm wide). Tapa is an overall light brown with darker brown applied parallel lines. The dark brown color is divided in two patterns: - 16 (sometimes 15) thin parallel lines running lengthwise, each of more or less 2 mm width. - Then one thick line running lengthwise of 25-30 mm width. - Then a non-painted area of 25 mm width. - And the pattern starts again, always running lengthwise. The colored lines seem to have been applied by hand with a tool resembling a brush. A thick dark brown line presents two thinner outer lines, and is then colored inside. Anthropology Conservation Lab treatment file contains the results of the testing this tapa for iron content, which was high.
