content: From card: "Bone [sic] bow, wooden drill shaft, steel point. Mouth piece."

content: From 2008 Anthropology Conservation lab condition treatment report: Engraved ivory drill bow with leather thong; wood drill shaft with steel bit, and wood mouthpiece with carved seal heads. Materials and Construction: The drill bow was made from a walrus tusk that had been split; the piece was shaped and polished extensively and then engraved using a flint tip. The engraving was blackened so that it could be read easily, probably using a charcoal and oil mixture. The wood drill shaft was slit at one end to receive the steel bit; the end was wrapped with skin line. The mouthpiece is carved from a piece of wood, with a circular stone insert on one side where the drill spun.

content: This object is on loan to the Anchorage Museum at Rasmuson Center, from 2010 through 2027.

content: Source of the information below: Smithsonian Arctic Studies Center Alaska Native Collections: Sharing Knowledge website, by Aron Crowell, entry on this artifact https://alaska.si.edu/record.asp?id=670 , retrieved 12-16-2021; see web page for additional information: Bow drill, Inupiaq. The traditional drill was a wooden spindle wrapped in a turn of leather cord and twirled by the back and forth motion of an ivory bow. The upper end of the spindle was held by a mouthpiece inset with a cupped bearing of smooth stone. Craftsmen kept sets of spindles with different sized bits made from stone or iron. Drill bows were engraved with life scenes, like this these showing hunting and dog sledding.

The women require a knife and generally carry it pushed down into a pocket of the moccasin.” and “The feet covered by moccasins as No. 31, 32, and 33 [21,533-21,535]. This applies to the Apaches. The Apache Mohave and Apache Yuma either are barefooted or some with sandals as Nos. 38- [21,540-21,542]. Are very apt to have a bag as No. 8 [21,496-21,503] in which to carry tobacco and matches etc.” per White's original catalog in the NAA.

This was a so-called mannequin "life group" of full size figures. The case was damaged in a 1965 fire in the exhibit hall and the exhibit was dismantled. Objects from the case and these mannequin wigs were subsequently stored with the Cocopa Ethnology collections. The wigs are #s ET12873 - ET12880.
