Originating in the anthropological-ethnographic department of the Natural History Museum, this museum (founded in 1928) has since been housed in the Corps de Logis, Neue Burg. The oldest artefacts arrived in Austria in the 16th century. Today the collection comprises c.200,000 objects and represents the cultural heritage of non-European countries from Africa, America, Asia and Australia/Oceania. Among the internationally most renowned collections can be rated: 'Ancient Mexican treasures', the 'Benin Bronzes', the James Cook collection (South Sea and North America), the Natterer collection (Brazil) and the Siebold collection (from Japan).
The Museum has a small but well-balanced Andamanese collection which was donated by E. H. Man in 1889.
The Andaman Association is grateful to the former curator of these collections, Dr. Leigh-Theisen, for the following list:
