that spanned the world. Suffragettes in Australia, Britain and America hailed the passing of the vote in New Zealand. It has been suggested that New Zealand was more open to voting reform because, as a new country, it was less constrained by entrenched attitudes. Only in three more countries would women receive the right to vote before the First World War – Australia in 1902, Finland in 1906 and Norway in 1913. In New Zealand, women remained ineligible to stand for election to the House of Representatives until 1919. 396 The 1893 Women’s Suffrage Petition The Kate Sheppard Memorial in Christchurch �

Early cylinder recordings of the world’s musical traditions (1893–1952) in the Berlin Phonogramm-Archiv Inscribed 1999 What is it The oldest sound documents of traditional music of the world from 1893 to 1952. The collection comprises 15,185 phonograph cylinders or mechanical characters. Why was it inscribed The collection is of historic, worldwide and cross-cultural significance and is an invaluable source for the study and the history of music. Where is it Ethnologisches Museum, Berlin, Germany The Phonogramm-Archiv is a centre of source materials and reference for musicological and cultural studies. It was formed in 1900 with the recordings on an Edison phonograph of a group of Thai musicians performing in Berlin; this proved to be the start of a pattern of recordings of other touring musicians giving performances in the city. Field recordings began coming into the Phonogramm- Archiv in 1902 after expeditions to Turkey by the director of the Ethnographical Museum, and to East Africa (now Tanzania) by a German linguist. The archive later received cylinders recorded even before 1900, made with the Kwakiutl in the Pacific northwest in 1893 and the Torres Straits in 1898. Subsequently, the travellers going abroad – geographers, linguists, ethnographers, doctors, missionaries, colonial officers and others – were supplied by the archive with an Edison phonograph and cylinders for recording music in the field. Their collections, combined with archive’s musicological analysis and interpretation, led to its growth into a major centre of comparative musicology. In addition, technical advances saw the archive become a main centre for the copying of cylinders, and collectors and institutions from other countries sent their collections to Berlin for copying. By 1933, around 10,000 original recordings were archived. Overall, 35.5 percent of the collection comes from Africa, 11.7 percent from America, 25.7 percent from Asia, 11.4 percent from Australia and Oceania and 15.5 percent from Europe. Before the end of the Second World War all the recordings were evacuated. Many cylinders went west but others, together with other parts of the archive, were sent to Silesia. The Russians took them from there to Leningrad although most, but not all, were sent to East Berlin in 1959. Cooperation at a personal level across the Berlin Wall in the 1960s quietly allowed the shipping of 4000 cylinders to West Berlin and their copying and return, until the Communist authorities found out and locked up the entire collection. After the fall of Communism and the Wall, the whole collection was returned to the Phonogramm-Archiv Berlin, reuniting it after 47 years. The archives are a potential source for extinct music cultures, and of religious and traditional beliefs of people before their conversion to Christianity – as, for example, with Indian people in Argentina in 1905–06. Materials from the archives have already been referenced as a basis for a planned revival of obsolete performances, such as the court music of Fumban in Cameroon or of Buganda in Uganda. Accompanying documents give details of the content, including technical details of the recordings, the performers, their instruments and the cultural context; some also have photographs.
