Identified there: "Inuit cap. Turner (1894: 209) noted: "[This] cap was obtained from one of the so-called "Northeners" (Inuit from Hudson Strait coast) who came to Ft. Chimo to trade. The design was copied from a white man's cap. The front and crown of the cap are made of guillemot and sea pigeon skins, and the sealskin neckpiece also is lined with these skins, so that when it is turned up the whole cap seems to be made of bird skins.""

label: Notes

content: From card: "Conical body. Richly and beautifully iridescent in lilac, green, and gold. Rounded bottom. Exhibit, Hall 26, 1976". From 1978 NMNH slide set caption: Glass bottle, iridescent, Cyprus, Roman period.

content: This object was on display in the National Museum of Natural History exhibit "Objects of Wonder", 2017 - 2024. Exhibit label identifies: Glass vessel, Roman, Cyprus, 200 BC – AD 100; Silicon dioxide, copper. Glassmaking manufacturers used minerals to give their glassware different tints. Iron in the sand used to make this glass provided a light aquamarine tint. When the vessel was buried with its owner, natural weathering turned the glass opaque and produced an iridescent finish. The various shades of blue in the shimmering patina come from the chemicals in the original glass, including iron.
