Research and responses

On 13 February 2015 examined by Dr Nicolas Garnier of the University of Papua New Guinea who noted that the word atun written on the bottom righthand corner of the picture near the drawing of the fish means tuna [for Dr Garnier's own notes see related document file 1994.15.] [ZM 13/02/2015]
