content: From cards: "Base a rectangular block of wood, hollowed out from one side and a cover neatly fitted to the opening. One end is cut down from the back side like a shovel, with a row of 11 small holes through the thinest part. An iron bridge E-shaped is lashed to the top in front and parallel to the row of small holes. Parallel to the bridge, but on the opposite side of the row of holes, is placed a strip of leather, across the bridge and leather are laid 11 iron tongues. Above the tongues and over the row of holes is laid a rider, a slender square rod of iron. A lashing of split rattan is passed over the rider between the tongues and through the holes beneath. Rider, tongues, bridge, and strip of leather are all firmly sewed to the base. Two of the tongues are strung each with a blue glass bead between the bridge and the rider, and 5 with two beads each in the same place. See 76.245. Illus. in Bulletin 136, USNM, Pl. 13-d, p.126."

content: Hopi House is located on the South Rim of the Grand Canyon. Hopi House was built by the Fred Harvey Company as a market for Native American crafts, made by artisans on the site. The Hopi, as the historic inhabitants of the area, were chosen as the featured artisans, and the building was designed to closely resemble a traditional Hopi pueblo. Hopi House opened on January 1, 1905, two weeks before the El Tovar Hotel, located just to the west, was opened.

content: From card: "a-gai-julch-gu-dit. Came in two parts (chin had been broken off), left side of face from top of forehead to bottom of chin, including the highly relief carved eyebrow or ridge, long narrow nose, narrow mouth slit, and an eye slit. Remains of red paint. There is some burning on the nose, which may be the result of the practice of some of the missionaries of trying to destroy all evidences of the native religion." Illus. Fig. 133, p. 143 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.

content: Source of the information below: Smithsonian Arctic Studies Center Alaska Native Collections: Sharing Knowledge website, by Aron Crowell, entry on this artifact http://alaska.si.edu/record.asp?id=202, retrieved 8-28-2012: Mask, Sugpiaq (Alutiiq), Koniag. agayullgútaq "mask" - Language: Koniag Sugpiaq (Kodiak Island dialect) This mask has a birdlike mouth and the pointed head of a dangerous being called an íyaq on Kodiak Island and a kaláaq in Prince William Sound; today's elders translate these words as "devil." An íyaq was the soul of an evil or insane person who had died five times and was said to be hungry for meat or human flesh. An íyaq could be used by a shaman as his helping spirit to spy on distant events, to carry messages, or to carry him to other worlds. Owls, cranes, and other birds also served as shaman's assistants, perhaps explaining this mixed being's pointed beak. The mask has been partly burned, perhaps to destroy it after a shaman's ritual or hunting ceremony.
