GRAY & MATHEWS, WERE POSTED TO THIS FORT IN 1867-68 (IN PRESENT-DAY NORTH DAKOTA), BUT PRIOR TO THAT, DR. MATHEWS HAD SERVED AT FORT BERTHOLD (WHICH LAY ONLY A FEW MILES FROM FORT STEVENSON), AS WELL AS AT FORT UNION FURTHER NORTH ON THE UPPER MISSOURI RIVER (ON THE MONTANA/NORTH DAKOTA BORDER). NEAR THERE, AT FORT BUFORD, DR. GRAY HAD BEEN POSTED IN 1867, AND IN 1866 SERVED AT FORT RANDALL (IN PRESENT-DAY SOUTHERN SOUTH DAKOTA). PRECISE PROVENIENCE IS THEREFORE UNCERTAIN FOR THESE OBJECTS; "FORT BERTHOLD," "FORT STEVENSON," "UPPER MISSOURI RIVER," OR SIMPLY "DAKOTA TERRITORY" INCONSISTENTLY APPEAR IN THE CARD CATALOG LISTINGS FOR THIS SERIES.

USNM Bull. 127, p. 212-3." See Processing Lab accession file for additional information on this boat. Illus. Fig. 148, p. 154 in Crowell, Aron, Amy F. Steffian, and Gordon L. Pullar. 2001. Looking both ways: heritage and identity of the Alutiiq people. Fairbanks, Alaska: University of Alaska Press. Identified there: "The angyak had a light, strong wooden frame made up of many individual pieces that were lashed together with whale baleen. This gave great flexibility and let the boat bend in rough water. As many as twenty large seal skins went into making the covering. The rounded bow, carved from a naturally curved piece of driftwood, lifted the boat over oncoming waves. This nineteenth-century model shoes the frame in accurate detail; identical full-sized parts have been recovered at the Karluk 1 archaeological site (Knecht 1995: 312-317)."

content: Source of the information below: Inuvialuit Pitqusiit Inuuniarutait: Inuvialuit Living History, The MacFarlane Collection website, by the Inuvialuit Cultural Resource Centre (ICRC), Inuvik, N.W.T., Canada (website credits here http://www.inuvialuitlivinghistory.ca/posts/12 ), entry on this artifact http://www.inuvialuitlivinghistory.ca/items/50 , retrieved 2-5-2020: Fishing rod, line and lures. This type of fishing tackle was used when fishing from shore. The rod is made from a cylindrical piece of wood, and has one or more baleen lines wrapped lengthwise around it that have been secured for storage with several short lengths of baleen. At each end there are four small lures whose hooks are wedged into the rod. The lures are made from antler, bone, or ivory, and are decorated with split beads set into shallow holes drilled into the surfaces of the shanks. The lures are attached to the main section of the lines by shorter and lighter coloured pieces of baleen, perhaps to make that part of the line less visible to fish. More information here: http://www.inuvialuitlivinghistory.ca/item_types/21: Fishing tackle was used for catching fish in rivers and streams during the open water season, and for jigging through holes chiseled through ice in winter and spring. Fishing tackle in the MacFarlane Collection includes fishing rods (iqaluksiun) with lines (ipiutaq) made from baleen, and bone and antler lures (niksik) with iron hooks. Less commonly, fishhooks were made from wood.
