content: Vega Expedition

content: Accession Number Unknown

label: Notes

content: This object was catalogued in 1884 and identified as given by the Royal Museum of Sweden. Anthropology catalogue ledger book identifies this as from Vega Expedition. In 1878-1880 the Vega expedition in the Arctic Ocean took place. The expedition was headed by polar explorer Adolf Erik Nordenskiöld; the ship used was the Vega. The purpose of the expedition was to study the Arctic coast along Russian Siberia, and look for the Northeast Passage. The expedition's progress was stopped by pack ice on September 28, 1878, about 1.5 kilometers from the coast at the Chukchi Peninsula at Neshkan, only days from the Bering Strait. The expedition spent the winter there at a place called Pitlekaj in eastern Siberia between Wrangel Island and the Bering Strait. The Vega expedition artifacts are described on p. 112 of the U.S. National Museum Annual Report for 1884. This may be the artifact listed there as "skewer for stopping the flow of blood from a wounded animal", i.e. a wound pin.

content: MKP-6 (Mississippian Keokuk Prior Aggregate, Variety 6): MK Prior Aggregate, Variety 6. Mayes Co. OK. A cream to tan colored ground is thickly spotted with dark oval spots and (sometimes) thin irregular lines. Wavy fern-like structures are irregularly spaced in most samples. These are usually associated with the Reeds Spring further east in northwest Arkansas. However, this may be an example of Reeds Spring lithiology surviving into Keokuk times. Iron oxide often coats fracture surfaces. Workability is fair to good.

content: KEOKUK (Prior Aggregate). I am separating the Keokuk varieties found near Prior; OK. from those found elsewhere because the local geology in that area is far from clear. Some stone 'in areas which are designated Keokuk on the Oklahoma geological map has characteristics of upper Reeds Spring, while some of the chert suggests the Elsey (a term which has replaced the Grand Falls in Missouri).
