Doubtful Clubs

The club with the long lozenge-shaped blade (Pl. LI, 5) and five bilateral pairs of spikes at the junction of the blade with the shaft was collected by myself in Samoa. Others were seen and are used in dances. The name of anave was given but the type seems new and as if introduced.

A club with a longer narrower blade, without spikes, but with two narrow transverse raised bands with serrated edges is catalogued as Samoan in Bishop Museum, but it is extremely doubtful if it belongs to that area. (See Plate LI, 6.)
