content: Ensign U S N John B. Bernadou

content: "Postscript to vol. 1 dated 1844 Book, 4 vols.; woodblock-printed paper. This is a complete opus in Chinese divided into four double-page, thread-bound volumes. These volumes contain unpaginated subsections dealing with sarye or "four rites": coming of age, wedding, funeral and ancestor worship. A table of contents and introductory remarks appear at the beginning of the first volume and the 1844 postscript by Jo Inyeong (1782-1850) appears at the end of the last volume. Hough believed this compendium to be a Korean version of a Chinese work, "the great Chinese handbook of etiquette."Actually, Sarye pyeollam was compiled by a Korean Confucian scholar, Yi Jae (1680-1746) in the early eighteenth century (Deuchler, 1977: 5). It was published in 1844 by Yi Jae's descendant, Yi Gwang-jeong (also known as Yi Hwi-jeong, 1760-?), and has served as the main text for most Korean families for these rites. Bernadou Field Notes 21 "Manual of the Four Rites or sa-ryei-pyellam [Sarye pyeollam]. Description of the ceremonies of (l) assuming the "Koun" or cap, indicating entrance into the state of manhood; (2) marriage, Also giving (3) the order and method of procedure at death and burial; and (4) the same at the offering of sacrifices to the dead." Collected in Seoul. Ref: Hough Korean Catalog p. 487; Bernadou Field Notes 21" [from: "An Ethnography of the Hermit Kingdom: The J.B.

content: Woven cotton band with a raised warp design of diamonds. Fringe-tassels on each end. A fiber tie is threaded through the band just before the tassels. With the addition of one feather and one seed top, each of these ends becomes another tassel. Each fringe-tassel also has a bead string and feather tassel. Dr. Newton says these were obtained from Choikru, a 17 y/o male. Made by Hukula, a 37 y/o female. Used. They were made for Choikru to use following a period of seclusion after he was bitten by a snake in late 1964. Some feathers are fragmented. The raised warp design is called he?huk, or he?huktoh. The knee band is 2z cotton, warp faced plain weave with raised warp design; warp ends left long and bound to form tassels. Pendant materials from tie ends and on band: glass seed beads and a variety of feather head bead: medium sized tan, smooth seed, cotton seed, caititu? or deer hoof/nails, and feathers, parrot and other blue? The bead string, combined tie strands and binding are 2z tucum caroa. A dyed warp marks the midline, a signiture mark of this weaver, Hukula. Price paid: beads. Associated specimens: manner of use can be informed by field number 1968-368.

content: Cap. Seamed buckskin cap; is a light tan color. There is a chin strap attached to the bottom of the cap that is made of a single strip of skin. One side of the cap has a carved piece of abalone in the shape of a cross or an "x". The abalone is attached with a piece of thin skin wrapped in sinew. There is also a white, circular shell on top of the abalone. On the opposite of the cap, there is the same type of white shell in a rectangular shape attached to the cap with a thin piece of skin wrapped in sinew. At the end of this thread, the remains of a feather are present. The keratin center of the feather is all that remains. The painting on the cap, on the side with the abalone shell, depicts a human figure in a geometric/triangular design in brown and yellow. Underneath the figure, on the bottom of the cap, a repeating triangular design in yellow and brown is present. Above the figure on the top of the cap, a blue, flowing design is present, perhaps representing water (?). On the opposite side of the cap, with the rectangular white shell and feather, the same human figure is present, this time, painted in blue and brown. Underneath the figure is the same triangular design in brown and yellow, as well as a boat shaped figure in blue and brown. Above the figure is a zig zag design, starting from the top of the hat, coming down to the figure, possibly representing lightning (?). The top of the cap is painted with brown and yellow stripes.

content: The cap appears to be the same one illustrated, along with bag and figure # E432868, in "Medicine cap and fetich - Apache", plate facing page 40, in The North American Indian (1907-1930) v.01, The Apache.

The basket has been dyed with an array of store bought dyes: green (iri 'o – “tree leaf”) and black (moroa). The design is “varia ni kuaie” (Varia just give) which refers to the water going down Purari river during a flood. Varia is an ancestor associated with the Purari River's waters and the water at the time of flood is said to be a skin or canoe that she takes. This is a traditional or totemic design (opa) linked to the Purari River. This akeke was made by Edna Kairi (Lavi Kaupara), (b. c. 1976; Purari Kaunama clan, Lavi Kaupara, Mapaio Village) for sale in Mapaio, Baimuru (town) or Kapuna (regional hospital). Edna bought the dye in Baimuru at one of the trading stores.

content: Ensign U S N John B. Bernadou

content: From card [for all 12 paintings, E77052-0 through E77052-11]: "12 Glue-color folk paintings on paper, used for room decoration or storeroom door amulets. - Chang-su Houchins. See pp. 468-9 in "The Bernadou, Allen, and Jouy Korean Collections in the U.S. National Museum" by Walter Hough in USNM AR 1891. All 12 paintings are described there."

content: From card [for E77052-10], painting original # 11: "Mythical unicorn-lion (haet'ae) with collar and bells around its neck, and with tongues of flame issuing from its feet. Yi period (1391 - 1910) pujokto (talismanic painting) used on doors to safeguard storeroom. Woodblock print colored with glue paint. 13.5 x 11.25 in. Smithsonian Photographic Services negative number 73-11095, which is available as a black and white image or color slide under this same negative number."

content: "Late 19th century. Color woodcut. The mythological Chinese lion, or haetae, represents energy and power. This print safeguards against fire. The flames issuing from the lion's head and paws allude to the principle of sympathetic magic. The collar with bells resembles the print of a dog (cat. no. 125). In Korean shamanistic tradition, the bells are to communicate with spirits. The pattern of spirals utilized here is talismanic as well as pan of the decoration. Below the lion's right foot are coral branches. Coral is a symbol of longevity in Chinese tradition (Hawley, 1971: illustration number 140 in the section under the title The Hundred Antiques). Hough notes this print is one of a set of four munbae-do in the Bernadou collection. Collected in Seoul. Ref: Hough Korean Catalog p. 469; Published "MBM 'Miguk bangmul-gwan sojang Hanguk munhwajae' or The Korean Relics in the United States", 1989: 149." [from: "An Ethnography of the Hermit Kingdom: The J.B. Bernadou Korean Collection 1884-1885", Chang-su Cho Houchins, 2004, number 126]

label: Notes

content: Style: Craig C Raw Material 2: Busycon sinistrum Element: Complete Alteration: Weathered Manufacturing Notes: Drilled distal hole at distal margin of design. Apical hole present but may be punched. Larger deterioration. Hole in body at shoulder on left of center. Design: Geometric. Surface Modification: Incised Symbols: Linked semi-volutes (Joan Gardner, conservator), concentric circles. Residue: Yellow stain in interior. Faint but definite basket impression on outer surface. Use Trace: Placed on basket/mat. Comments: 6 bands of repeating motifs running latitudinally. Volutes run in Z direction. and there they meet are joined by a 3 concentric ring circle. Volute swirls sometimes consist of 4 || lines others of 3|| lines but offset so that there would be room for a 4th. Is this an intentional variation, or is it what happens when a Mississippian artist runs out of time and has to take short-cuts (see what Phillips & Brown have to say about it (Pre-Columbian Shell Engravings from Craig Mound at Spiro, Oklahoma)).
