A 13-metre dugout canoe suspended from the ceiling is the centrepiece of the museum's new gallery Under Southern Skies. The huge wooden craft with a carved crocodile-head prow is from the Sepik River in Papua New Guinea. Helen Anu and Dr Stephen Gapps trace how it came to join the museum's collection.
