content: Joseph Fabish

content: Christian Pettersen

content: Wool blanket, aniline and natural dyes. Weft-faced tapestry weave. Average count: 7/13. Top and bottom borders are red and lana (natural wool) stripes. The side borders are lana triangles. The background is split between red and black. The pattern is of black and pink, and red and pink rosettes on checkerboard.

content: "The blanket…has the wide bands at the top and bottom seen in blankets woven after the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s. The triangular side borders, although originated in the 1940s, is seen today in blanket weaving. The addition of pink to one of the rosettes would have only occurred after the 1950s. Rarely are two types of wool blended in the blanket area. The blanket…was collected in Puyalli, outside of the blanket area proper, on the Ancash side of the blanket area. I suggest that the blanket is 20 years old. I propose a date of manufacture of 1985 +/- 5 years." (Information abridged from the 2-volume manuscript "Age Analysis for the Christian Pettersen Collection of Huamachuco Blankets to the Smithsonian Institution", by Joseph Fabish, January 20, 2009. These volumes are housed at the National Anthropological Archives.)

content: There is no fraying. There is no insect damage. There is no dye running. The blanket is negative to light test and demonstrates good weight. There is wear and tear due to normal usage. There is a set pattern to the blanket of a chevron but giving the illusion of squares and rosettes. (Information abridged from the 2-volume manuscript "Age Analysis for the Christian Pettersen Collection of Huamachuco Blankets to the Smithsonian Institution", by Joseph Fabish, January 20, 2009.

NAVITCO, A SPIRIT WHO, ACCORDING TO LEGEND, HAD INTRODUCED THE CULTIVATION OF GOURDS TO THEM, WAS HONORED EVERY EIGHT YEARS, OR, IF CROPS WERE ESPECIALLY GOOD, EVERY FOUR YEARS. BUT NAVITCO WAS ALSO THOUGHT TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR SEVERAL AILMENTS - SWELLING OF THE KNEES AND INFLAMMATION OF THE EYES. CURING CEREMONIES FOR THE AFFLICTED WERE LED BY MASKED MEDICINE MEN ACCOMPANIED BY THE SISTRUM. ALTHOUGH USED AND COLLECTED IN A PIMA VILLAGE, THIS INSTRUMENT WAS NOT NATIVE TO THE PIMA. IT WAS PROBABLY ACQUIRED THROUGH TRADE FROM THE YAQUI, WHO HAD ADOPTED BOTH THE DISK SISTRUM AND THE VIOLIN FROM THE SPANISH. LOANED TO THE DIVISION OF MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS 9/30/1977.

content: Romyn Hitchcock

content: From card: "Worn with snow shoes, 150643."

content: Note that although this was originally cataloged as a pair of shoes (in the catalog ledger book and on the catalog card) only one of the shoes remains in the museum's collection. There is no known documentation to show what happened to the other shoe, or when it may have gone missing. During the 1970s/80s inventory, it was given a count of 1, which seems to indicate that it was already missing a shoe as of that time.

content: Illus. Fig. 29.25 p. 220 of Fitzhugh, William W., and Chisato O. Dubreuil. 1999. Ainu: spirit of a northern people. [Washington, D.C.]: Arctic Studies Center, National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution in association with University of Washington Press. Identified there as a nonskid boot. "Salmon-skin boots (chep-keri) were mainly worn from winter to spring for mountain walking. Their soles had fishscales pointing backwards to provide traction on the snow, ice, and mud; the backfin was left in the middle of the sole for the same purpose. Such boots were dry and light, but dried grass was added for extra insulation, and bark fiber was used for socks."
