Evidentiary scope

This is an object rather than a field gathering: it has a donor and a provenance and no collector, no number and no date. It documents cannabis material in circulation out of South Africa in the late nineteenth century. It shows neither a continuing population nor a living germplasm holding, so it supports neither a landrace nor a feral classification. The accession is classified Other. No conservation priority is assigned.

The sample documents cannabis leaves held as a pharmaceutical reference in a British university, attributed to Cape Colony. It says nothing about where in the colony the material was grown or by whom.

Georeferencing

The locality is a colony and the string Af4, which is a shelf or region code rather than a place. No coordinate is given and none is asserted.

Editorial treatment

The museum releases its data as CC0. It publishes no image of this object.

Cape Colony is the provenance the record gives. It is a historical polity, not a present-day province, so the province field is left empty.
