content: From card: "Consists of long double strands of small flat beads of shell, Marginella (Rehder) and "possibly some of bone". Strung on double thread of white cotton and cross tied with blue and green ribbons. Quotation from Mr. Fenton's memorandum. "50 Necklace of shell discs placed about candidates neck in the Tutelo Ceremony (Published as frontspiece of F. G. Speck, Tutelo Spirit Adoption Ceremony, 1942). Obtained in January, 1941, from Mrs. Charles Silversmith (Cayuga) who is ceremonially an Onondaga of the Six Nations Reserve, Canada, by William N. Fenton, for $25. This necklace is believed by the Cayugas to be one of several which were carried northward by the Tutelo on their migration from Virginia to join the Six Nations in New York State in 1753, and the modern Cayuga believe the beads are made of human bone; actually they are shell. (See Rehder's testimony and slides.)"

Berlin: Nicolai. Described on p. 121 as: "Necklace for the Tutelo Spirit Adoption Ceremony; marginella shells, cotton yarn, cloth ribbons, 61 x 3 cm. In the eighteenth century the Tutelo, a Siouan-speaking people from the Virginia-North Carolina border region, fled from their homes and were adopted into the League of the Haudenosaunee "under the wings of the Cayuga." One of their ceremonies, in which the soul of a deceased person is once again brought back and in his stead another person is adopted into the group, has survived into the twentieth century (Speck 1942). The necklace was thought to be one that the Tutelo brought with them from the south."

content: From card: "Open work with crescents, birds and hands. On one of the latter the Hebrew inscription: "A fruitful tree is Joseph" (Genesis 49,28). Loan: Jewish Community Center of Greater Washington, 10.21.69. Returned August 14, 1970. Loaned to the Maurice Spertus Museum of Judaica 10-10-74. Returned March 19, 1975."

content: Illustrated and described in Grossman, Grace Cohen and Richard Eighme Ahlborn, 1997, "Judaica at the Smithsonian: Cultural Politics as Cultural Model" Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology. Vol. 52, p. 163. Identified there as Iraq, 19th century: "This lamp incorporates motifs reflecting its Middle Eastern origins. The overall architectural form of the back wall is that of a facade of a domed building resting on four pillars, the scalloped arch providing a decorative element. The crescent moon and stars are apparently drawn from Islamic symbolism. The hamsa, or hand ... is a popular amuletic device among both Jews and Moslems [Muslims], used to banish evil powers. On this lamp, the hamsa motif is used five times, thereby geometrically increasing the power against the evil eye. On the largest hamsa is an inscription in Hebrew: "Joseph is a fruitful vine" (Genesi 49:22). This quote is popular on amulets because of the allusion in the second phrase of the verse, "A fruitful vine by a fountain [ayin]." The Hebrew word for "eye" is also ayin; therefore the text is thought to be a good protection against the evil eye. Glass cups, now missing, were used to hold the oil for lighting the Hanukkah lamp."

content: U. S. Department of the Navy

content: From card: "Reindeer skin." Coat has two cloth-lined pockets in front.

content: Anthropology catalogue card and ledger book identify native name for this coat as "kuklanka." This is a misspelling for the Russian Siberian word for a heavy fur coat, kukhlanka. According to Dr.Zinaida Ivanova-Unarova (Arctic Institute of Culture and Arts, Yakutsk, Russia), the fur coat has none of the typical features of traditional Sakha, Evenk, or Even clothing and most closely resembles the Koryak garments from Russian Pacific coast. It is a man's winter working coat with a hood, in relatively good shape, made of doubled reindeer skins and commonly known under Russian Siberian name kukhlanka. It is also remarkably large (105 cm long) for a common Siberian Native man. Since a Koryak man's winter coat normally reaches slightly below a person's knee, it was obviously made for a tall man. An inscription in Roman letters is scratched on the inside of the fur collar (apron): "Lt. G.B. Harber USN." Coat appears to have been made for Giles Bates Harber's use.

content: Information on coat E153523 was mistakenly entered into the remarks on the catalogue card for E153533: "Yakut. Coat with hood; head of coat of reindeer head skin with ears remaining, with chin flap to protect the coat from runny nose during cold weather. Typical of Koryak and Yakut. Relatively modern.: Data provided 15 Dec. '82 by Dr. Ilja S. Gurvich, Head of Northern and Siberian Peoples Dept., Institute of Ethnography, U.S.S.R. Academy of Sciences, Moscow. Recorded by Wm. C. Sturtevant."

content: Reference: Ivanova-Unarova, Zinaida, 2017. Siberian Collections in the U.S. Museums. Yakutsk. Object is identified there: Coat. Kuklanda. Sangyjakh. 1882 Reindeer hide, hide, sinew. Sewing, applique. L.: 105. A double fur coat with a hood. Combination of white and brown reindeer hide make the coat look festive. The style and character of sewing resemble a Koryak fur garment: the presence of a hood and an apron, loose wide cut, double-layer fur, an opuvan wide leather bar on the hem. Sewn in North Yakutia. There is a piece of leather on the lapel of a breast collar with an inscription that reads 'Lt. G.B. HarberUSN', explained by I.I. Krupnik to mean 'Lieutenant of the United States Navy Giles Bates Harber'.

The border is formed by dividing the warp into numerous strands intertwined with black dyed flax and red strouding (Bayetta) producing lozenge patterns in great variety. The edges of the cloak are bordered with a narrow geometrical pattern of close twining which is continued from the border of the garment. The upper edge is finished with a sewing of red and black cord and is supplied with two tying strings. The robe is a fine example of the best textile work of the Maoris. The material has aged to a fine brown color and has taken on a silky luster." - Dr. Walter Hough. Man's. "Parawai." Taniko on 3 sides only. Tag says "Brought from New Zealand in 1883 by Edwin Smith." Small plain cloak, taniko border. In good shape. A little red and blue wool in taniko border. Flax tie strings."
