Paris: Réunion des musées nationaux. Entry is for a belt/cincture, Musee du Quai Branly catalog no. 71.1885.78.291.271, which their records identify as former Smithsonian no. 14373. However, that number appears to be incorrect, because the Smithsonian catalogue does not list a belt under # 14373. It is possible that the belt at the Branly may instead be # 14393, since that is a belt that has not been located in the Smithsonian collections.

content: United States Exploring Expedition

content: "KAITAKA PARAWAI" FLAX CLOAK WOVEN W/ BIAS-WEFTS RUNNING HORIZONTALLY COMMENCING AT THE NECK BORDER. THE SIDES ARE EDGED W/ NARROW "TANIKO" BORDERS & THE BOTTOM HAS A WIDE 21 CM. BORDER WITH TRIANGULAR, DIAMOND & CHEVRON PATTERNS IN BROWN, BLACK AND NATURAL COLORS WITH ADDITIONAL WOOL THREADS IN BLUE AND RED. PORTIONS OF THE "TANIKO" PATTERN ARE RAISED. THERE ARE 71 CONTINUOUS WEFT ROWS WHICH ARE 1.5 CM. WIDTH. VARIOUS INSERTS WHICH GIVE SHAPE TO THE GARMENT INCLUDE SEVEN SIMPLE ELLIPTICALS AT THE SHOULDERS AND BUTTOCKS AND ONE GORING INSERT NEAR THE LOWER BORDER. MARKS. ATTACHED TAG READS, "RIESENBERG NO. 7". THIS CLOAK WAS LISTED AS ET9352, AND RIESENBERG # 7, AND MAY BE A WILKES PIECE. THE CLOAK IS WATER STAINED. THE WATER STAINING MAY POSSIBLY BE A RESULT OF THE 1865 FIRE IN THE SMITHSONIAN CASTLE, OR PERHAPS ALSO WAS SUSTAINED FROM USE OR DURING THE OCEAN VOYAGE FROM NEW ZEALAND TO THE U.S.?

content: In the 1980's, Jane Walsh had tentatively identified cloak ET9352 as a Wilkes piece, and given it # E3770, however, in 2018, the real E3770 was located in National Museum of American History, Division of Home and Community Life (Division of Textiles), storage at the Garber Facility Building 19. Therefore the cloak Jane Walsh studied has been returned to number ET9352. As it has been tentatively identified as a Wilkes/U.S. Exploring Expedition collection piece, the object has been given the Exploring Expedition Accession number of 66A00050 to facilitate research. One possible number for it is E3767, a U.S. Exploring Expedition cloak which has not been located to date.

content: From card: "Scabbard entirely of silver gilt repousse as is grip. Grip set with jewels, 3 missing. Plain blade." Attributed on card as "Probably Turkey" by EIK [Eugene I. Knez, Curator for Asian Ethnology].

content: Information from Leonid Lantsman, 2014: 19th C. Ottoman Turkish yataghan sword, likely originating from the Balkan region judging by the low quality relief silver work and the decoration at the top of the scabbard. The blade is madeof watered steel, sham wootz of linear display. The unusual handle features several inset semi-precious or paste stones, now missing three. The scabbard and handle are of low relief repoussed silver work.

content: FROM CARD: "SMALL OVAL MASK - HUMAN FACE-RED BROWS-BLACK HAIR-2 ROWS OF WOODEN TEETH-SLIT EYES. INVENTORIED 1977."

content: This object is on loan to the Anchorage Museum at Rasmuson Center, from 2010 through 2027.

content: Source of the information below: Smithsonian Arctic Studies Center Alaska Native Collections: Sharing Knowledge website, by Aron Crowell, entry on this artifact https://alaska.si.edu/record.asp?id=139 , retrieved 12-28-2021; see web page for additional information: Mask, Inupiaq. This King Island mask represents a woman, her hair parted for braids. It was acquired with two male masks as a set, all probably made by the same artist and used together. Its meaning within King Island's rich heritage of dance and ceremony has not been identified. For the "Competition Dance" men wore women's clothing and masks to hide their faces, and women danced disguised as men; it seems possible that this mask was used for that purpose. This female portrait mask, purchased on King Island by Smithsonian collector Edward W. Nelson in 1882, has not yet been specifically identified by contemporary Elders. In the book King Island Tales, Frank Ellanna of King Island described some of the many songs and dances that people of this Bering Sea island traditionally performed during mid-winter, or Sauya.tuġvik [the Time of Drumming]. For the "competition dance," men wore women's clothing and masks to hide their faces, and women danced disguised as men; it seems possible that this mask was used for that purpose. Dancers wore different types of masks and special regalia for the Wolf Dance, Polar Bear Dance, and other performances. When not in use, masks and drums were hung up in the qagri [community house] . Masks were used throughout the Iñupiaq region for the Messenger Feast, whaling festivals, and other social and religious ceremonies. The King Island Singers and Dancers, Northwest Iñupiaq Dancers, and other groups carry on the traditions of Iñupiaq dance.

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=629 , retrieved 5-21-2012: Paint Dish, Haida. This stone dish from Skidegate was used for blending oil-based colors to apply to the body and face, or for mixing paints to use on hats, masks, boxes, and other work. For the latter purpose, crushed salmon eggs were added as a fixative. Charcoal, roasted tree fungus, ocher, cinnabar, and berry juices were among the common coloring materials. The bottom of the dish is carved with a Sea Bear and Killer Whale, both crests of the Raven moiety.

content: LARGE PIECE OF VERY FINE OILED REDDISH BARK CLOTH, PARTIALLY DECORATED WITH RED LINES OF VARYING WIDTHS, AND LARGE AREAS OF BLACK PARALLEL LINES OF VARYING WIDTHS WHICH ARE INTERSECTED BY NARROWER BLACK LINES FORMING A CHECKED PATTERN. THE BARK CLOTH WAS TOO BRITTLE TO UNFOLD, THEREFORE THE MEASUREMENTS ARE APPROXIMATE. AN ATTACHED TAG READS, "3602 - 836".

content: FROM CARD: "FINE PIECE. RED AND BLACK. (THIS INFORMATION GIVEN BY K. P. EMORY, BISHOP MUSEUM, 6/24/41.)"

content: Per Erhardt, W. D. and N. Firnhaber. "Analysis and Identification of Oils in Hawaiian Oiled Tapa." In Recent Advances in the Conservation and Analysis of Artifacts. Ed: James Black, London: University of London, Summer School Press, 1987, pp. 223 - 227, the oils on this tapa were most likely derived from the kukui nut.

content: Tapa is a long narrow rectangle, that is divided into two main decorative fields running lengthwise. One side consists of a 31 cm wide pattern made of regular parallel horizontal black lines (5 mm) crossed perpendicularly by narrower vertical lines (2 mm). It is applied on what appear to be a golden reddish background, which made us suspect the presence of oil as a binder in the black color, the latter probably being a black carbon pigment. Opposite side consists of parallel vertical lines made of two lighter colored pinkish-red lines, alternating with two strong pink-red lines on a pink-orange background. Both decorative pattterns are very regular and were probably traced with "rulers" or "liners". There are narrow borders at the short ends. On one well preserved edge, another decorative pattern can be seen. It is a black "checked pattern" on one half, and the other half unembellished (8.5 cm wide). At the opposite end only part of the pattern is visible, as the other part is a missing area (replaced during conservation, proving to be a black decorative pattern showing parallel lines with in between alternated directions of four other parallel lines diagonally oriented - 9 cm wide).

content: World'S Columbian Exposition, Commission Of Johore

content: This looks like a stopper or plug. A pointed black wooden stick with a bone or ivory cylinder at the other end. Numbers written on it are 69B and 1509. A catalog number, 95783 (or 45783, or ?), is written on the ivory part, but it is very faint and difficult to read. Catalog number E95783-0 is a flageolet. The card describes a "plug" in the end of the flute, but that is probably referring to an inset piece of wood on the end of the flute. This object (E95783-1, with the ivory end) is too large to fit into any of the holes on the flute, and it seems very unlikely that it goes with the flute. It is not known when this plug became associated with the flute, or why. It will retain this number until further information can be found.
