Searching for Keralan and Kanarese ethnographic material
******************************************************************
From: Elizabeth Lambourn <el5@soas.ac.uk>

Dear Colleagues,

I would be grateful if anyone could suggest which museums (in India and
internationally) hold the best collections of ethnographic material from
Kerala and also the Kanara coast. I am particularly interested in the
material culture of daily life such as baskets, metalwork, ceramics,
textiles etc.

Ideas about key collection catalogues or any other publications would also
be gratefully received.

Many thanks

Elizabeth Lambourn
