University of Queensland Anthropology Museum

It houses the largest university collection of ethnographic material culture in Australia.

The initial focus of the Museum was on the material culture of Aboriginal Australia, but swiftly broadened to incorporate a diverse range of material from Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands and the broader Pacific region.

[2] Early donors to the museum included missionaries, researchers and anthropologists such as Ursula McConnel and AP Lyons.

Collections from Stradbroke Island and Moreton Bay include basketry and midden material.
