[Here](https://zebregsroell.com/product/kiribati-armour) are some pictures from around the same time of Kiribati warriors wearing armor and wielding other shark tooth lined weapons.
The helmet is made from a dried porcupine fish, armor is made of coconut fiber string and sometimes adorned with woven shells, and weapons made of palm wood and shark teeth.
