Readers are reminded yet again that a single object can, of course, have more than one country assigned to it during the cataloguing and accessioning process, therefore we have taken great care not to add together countries and set them against the total number of objects in our summary unless we have excluded any double counting between categories.

Pitt Rivers Museum - Named field collectors
The shape of their collections up to 1945
Named collectors as donors
[ie including their secondary collections as well]
Note that the countries in blue are non-colonial countries, the countries in red have been part of the British Empire. Countries in green have no objects from them in the collections of any of the named collectors [NC after their name means Non-colonial, C = colonial], all zero figures have been coloured green to make it easier to spot numbers. Country names in plum mean that objects from there are present in each named collection

Seligman* |
Tylor ** |
Pitt Rivers |
Balfour |
Blackwood |
Hutton |
* - Calculated by typing in name Seligman into PRM source field, so that it catches both the items donated by Charles and Brenda Seligman, as with named field collector classes statistics.
*** British India could be India Pakistan or Bangladesh it is not sufficiently well provenanced to know
Note that it is not possible to work out percentage splits for each country for each collector because of the amount of double-counting between countries.
Conclusions
As might have been predicted, Pitt Rivers and Balfour have objects from the widest distribution of countries, Hutton and Blackwood have the narrowest distribution.
