Crossroads of continents: cultures of Siberia and Alaska. Washington, D.C.: Smithsonian Institution Press. Identified there as Bering Sea Eskimo Tunghak Inua Mask. "This mask reverses the typical inua mask in which the human inua appears in the eye of a normal animal. In this mask a remarkably fierce tunghak with a thumbless, "pierced" palm, sporting seal flipper and kayak bow attachments, is seen with its prey, a meek seal, in its eye."

content: This object is on loan to the Anchorage Museum at Rasmuson Center, from 2010 through 2027. One additional mask appendage - flipper - in exhibit Community Consultation Room. Harpoon head attachment and bird attachment (possibly part of mask?) not on loan.

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=542 , retrieved 10-26-2021; see web page for additional information: Mask, Yup'ik. This ceremonial dance mask apparently depicts the kind of powerful tunraaq spirit that lived in the moon and controlled the availability of sea mammals. The spirit's hand is shown with no thumb and a hole in its palm, symbolizing the community's desire that it not hold on to all of the animals, allowing some to return for spring hunting. The face of a seal emerges from the left side of the face and other mask appendages include the bow of a kayak and a fin, possibly of a whale. The spirit has pointed teeth and an eye encircled in black, signifying spiritual vision.

content: Oscillum. Representation of a veiled goddess, with the appearance of rising from the earth, connected it with the Persephone myth Oscillum. Representation of Demeter / Persephone. Found at Cameiros. British Museum, 176. These two goddesses ousted all other divinities from the underworld circle, and endowed with their own personality not only the feminine statuettes, but also the female masks (oscilla) which were hung on the walls of the tombs. In their origin these are derived from the Egyptian coffins, the upper part of which is moulded in the likeness of the head and shoulders of the dead. The Greeks, misled by their beardless faces, and knowing them only in rough Phenician copies, turned them into female busts, and adapted them to the representation of a veiled goddess, while in time their truncated form, which gave them the appearance of rising from the earth, connected them with the Persephone myth. (Hutton, Caroline Amy. Greek Terracotta Statuettes. The Macmillan Company, 1899, pg. 27-28, fig. 12, B. 176).
