A small section of timber from the keel of Captain Cook’s HMB Endeavour is to be auctioned in Sydney in four weeks with a reserve price of A$400,000 (NZ$428,000). The “unique provenanced piece of timber” just 22 centimetres long and two centimetres wide is inside a small display case and bears an inscription believed to have been written by the sister of botanist Sir Joseph Banks, Sarah Sophia Banks.
