What is the image about?
The image is a Wapepe Navigation Chart of the Marshall Islands in the 19th century, created using coconut fiber, sticks, shells, which are displayed in Peabody Museum, Salem.
The people of the Marshall Islands used these charts to sail their canoes. Islands are represented by shells.
The ribs (made from coconut frond midribs) depict ocean swell currents and patterns.
Because there was no standardization between charts, only the people who created the map understood it.
Over many centuries, the map-making method was passed down from father to son.
A map was studied prior to a trip but not used during the journey.
