Kauri ist eine Schneckenart. Der lateinische Name Monetaria Moneta und das englische Wort money (Geld) deuten darauf hin, dass die porzellanartigen Geh\u00e4use der Kauri fr\u00fcher als Zahlungsmittel verwendet wurden. Nach arabischen Angaben waren die Schatzkammern der maledivischen Sultane voll mit den einheimischen Kauris.<\/p>\n
Im Mittelalter, zur Bl\u00fctezeit des maledivischen Handels mit Indien, Arabien und Afrika, hatten die Kauris folgende Bedeutung: Sie waren die W\u00e4hrung, die gegen Gold und andere W\u00e4hrungen aufgerechnet wurde. Sie waren au\u00dferdem Exportgut und verschafften den Malediven gro\u00dfen Reichtum mit ihrem Fast-Monopol. Als Schmuckst\u00fcck wurden besonders sch\u00f6ne Exemplare in den Handel gebracht. Als Grabbeigabe bis in den hohen Norden wurden sie den Toten beigelegt. Man hat sie sogar in Finnland und n\u00f6rdlich des Polarkreises (Thor Heyerdahl) in Gr\u00e4bern gefunden, die auf 600 n.Chr. datiert werden. Zur Kolonialzeit haben die Portugiesen ganze Schiffsladungen nach Afrika geschickt, um damit den Sklavenhandel zu finanzieren. Heute wird das Muschelgeld zu Schmuckst\u00fccken verarbeitet. Die Geh\u00e4use der gro\u00dfen Tigerkauris, die wegen des Raubbaus f\u00fcr die Souvenirindustrie unter Wasser nur noch selten anzutreffen sind, sind begehrte Sammlerobjekte. Diese Weichtiere ern\u00e4hren sich von Algen und Schw\u00e4mmen.<\/p>\n","protected":false,"gt_translate_keys":[{"key":"rendered","format":"html"}]},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
