P.79587.ACH2 was found on an album page.

Place: The Place field was previously recorded as being “Oceania; Melanesia; New Guinea”, but matching images within the album to the duplicate prints and negatives (for example see P.1831.ACH1 and P.1985.ACH1) shows that the photographs are from A.C. Haddon’s field work in the then British New Guinea (now Papua New Guinea) during the Cambridge University Anthropological Expedition to the Torres Straits, 1898 - 1899. The Place field has been amended accordingly. [JD 21/11/2009]
