In July 2010, a Society Islands tamau, or headdress of human hair, collected on James Cook's second famous Pacific voyage of 1772-74, which had been missing since 1776, was "rediscovered" at the University of Oxford's Pitt Rivers Museum. A report of its rediscovery is followed by a technical description, an account of its conservation, and a partly speculative discussion of its history and provenance
