- Abstract / Summary
- Place: Omarakana (Kiriwina). Informants: Tokuluba'kiki and Moniga'u. A brief passage in the Trobriand language with English commentary, numbered J271, comprises an exchange regarding fear of death with two informants, one of whom is an old man. The information is written on the back of reused stationery, consisting of a partial, typed letter dated 22.10.18 to the director of the National Museum in Melbourne, Australia, probably from Malinowski, regarding the donation of Trobriand artifacts.
