Interestingly varied collections.
I'm not sure how or if this applies to any of the weapons in their collections, but back about 20 years ago it was determined that the vast majority of their collection of pre-Columbian gold artifact were in fact fake.  https://www.forbes.com/2002/01/09/01...l#4a5809e2285f |

Thank you for sharing those pictures, some interesting items in the arms collections. What is the story behind the ethnographic arms from around the world - was this someone's personal collection that was donated to the Museum?
