Museum Friday

Sorry for not posting for a couple of weeks. That's actually how long I haven't been behind a computer screen. I Just had my wedding last weekend at Bishop Museum's courtyard, but posting that would totally be out of context.
 
Continuing with the chest ornaments of the Pacific. This pearl shell breastplate was polished and drilled to be worn on the upper chest. It was discovered on a site at Paeao, Maupiti, Society Islands and dated to about 600 years ago. Now a part of the new Pacific Hall at Bishop Museum.
 
I have some good stuff brewing this weekend at Hawea Heiau's monthly clean up Saturday morning and a special ceremony there on Sunday night... the drums will sound again.
