content: Per Aaron Glass, this neck ring appears to be one shown in SI photo Negative #77-10036, Photo Lot 24 SPC Nwc Kwakiutl NM No.# Boas 09070500, National Anthropological Archives, Smithsonian Institution, which shows a museum exhibit of a figure group (mannequin life group) of Kwakiutl Hamatsa initiates emerging from a room behind a painted scene. This neck ring seems to be the one on the kneeling figure third from right in the photo. The exhibit was created for the museum by Franz Boas in 1895, using items from the collection. This photo, and a description of how Boas researched and created the exhibit, are in Jonaitis, Aldona. 1988. "From the Land of the Totem Poles: the Northwest Coast Indian Art Collection at the American Museum of Natural History", p. 150. The photo can also be seen online by going to collections.si.edu/search and searching on "NAA INV 09070500". He suspects that the original number for this object this may be E129514, a conspicuously absent Hamat'sa neck ring from Boas's 1886 exchange with the Berlin museum (Acc 19597). "Perhaps its use on the mannequin resulted in its being separated from its [catalog] number".

content: From card: "For attaching to the bottom of the seat on which the captain of the umiak sits in the whale hunt. Two tapering upcurving wings. At the center is a well carved figure of a whale in relief. Perforations through the ends of the wings. Small slot on the base. (Excavated by Eskimos. Purchased.) Compare with similar specimens 346658-59 from Pt. Hope."

content: Illus. Fig. 107 p. 93 in Chaussonnet, Valerie. 1995. Crossroads Alaska: native cultures of Alaska and Siberia. Washington, D.C.: Arctic Studies Center, National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution. Identified there: "Whale effigy to take along. Inupiaq wooden whale effigy from Little Diomede Island, Alaska, from the 1800s ... Ritually potent quartz crystals were inserted into the blow-hole and the eyes, and there is a space under the board in the center where a large crystal was kept. The board was lashed on the umiak through the holes on the sides, for good luck in hunting."

content: Whale carved on object identified by Dr. Erica Hill, University of Alaska Southeast, as a bowhead whale, its blowhole symbolized with a piece of obsidian. In the Iñupiaq language, seats of whaling boats are called either iktuġat or aqutim aksivautana, depending on dialect. Using Iñupiat oral histories and ethnographies recorded in the 19th and 20th centuries, Hill found that this and other iktuġat were meant to be placed in a boat with the likeness of the whale facing down, toward the ocean. The meticulously rendered art was thus meant not for humans, but for whales - to flatter them and call them to the hunters. - see "When Whales and Humans Talk" by Krista Langlois, Hakai Magazine, April 3, 2018, https://www.hakaimagazine.com/features/when-whales-and-humans-talk/ .

content: Illus. #9, pp. 20 - 22, in Houchins, Chang-su. 1995. Artifacts of diplomacy: Smithsonian collections from Commodore Matthew Perry's Japan Expedition (1853-1854). Smithsonian contributions to anthropology, no. 37. Washington, D.C.: Smithsonian Institution Press. Identified there as Lacquered stationery box (ryoshi-bako), L. 40.5 cm., W. 33 cm., H. 17 cm..

content: Description: Black, rectangular, covered lacquer box with shallow interior tray, used for storing paper, brushes, inkstones, and other writing paraphernalia.

content: Characteristics: The box cover ornamentation is in the traditionally auspicous shochikubai (pine, bamboo, and plum) design of makie decoration in relief against the nashiji (lit. golden pear-like color finish; gold flecked surface) lacquer finish. The nashiji exterior finish is obtained by sprinkling gold flakes, made from compressed coarse gold fillings, onto the surface and applying a final coating of lacquer. Additional decoration includes such other equally auspicious symbols and clouds and waves in burnished gold. The interior surface is finished in black lacquer. Boxes of this size and construction generally are known simply as ryoshi-bako (stationery box) (Young, 1973:112, 206, for the term and similar specimens.)

content: Remarks: This stationery box was presented as a gift to the President of the United States from the Bakufu (the military government [of Japan] under the shogun; also known as the Shogunate Government, 1603 - 1868) at Kanagawa in March 1854. An entry for "nashiji makie shochikubai ryoshi suzuri-bako" appears in the NGL (BGKM, 1912, volume 4, page 556), and "Ryoshi suzuri-bako, sho-chikubai taka-makie" is recorded in the SML (BGKM, 1916, volume 8, page 546).

content: E35921 - 35926 are Illus. Fig. 115b, p. 107 in Black, Lydia. 2003. Aleut art = Unangam aguqaadangin. Virginia Beach, VA: Donning Co. Publishers. They are identified there: "Human figurines from Attu with removable arms and weapons. Pegs at bottom of feet indicate that these figures were originally on a plate or a pedestal. Note minimal emphasis on genitalia and egg-shaped bodies." These figures are also described on p. 112: "The bodies are ovaloid, the legs ... crude appendages in a forklike shape. The arms are long tubes inserted into holes drilled in the shoulders, peg-like .... The position of the arms varies from figure to figure. One of the figures "holds" a long spear, also of tubular shape, in the right hand. Other figures, too, apparently held weapons which are now lost. The heads are crude ovaloids. Interestingly, the only parallel to this type of anthropomorphic sculptures on the North Pacific Rim appears to be found in the Evenk (Tungus) sculpture of the Sea of Okhotsk littoral and in Siberia in the Yenisei River valley. The similarity lies in style as well as in the pegged attachment of limbs and, in the particular case of the figurine holding a spear, in the manner in which the weapon itself and the way it is attached to the hand are represented."
