content: Source of the information below: Inuvialuit Pitqusiit Inuuniarutait: Inuvialuit Living History, The MacFarlane Collection website, by the Inuvialuit Cultural Resource Centre (ICRC), Inuvik, N.W.T., Canada (website credits here http://www.inuvialuitlivinghistory.ca/posts/12 ), entry on this artifact http://www.inuvialuitlivinghistory.ca/items/319 , retrieved 12-17-2019: Pipe with a copper bowl and a stem made of wood. The bowl has a shallow flared top, a cylindrical post and a flange at the base, with a hole that continues through to the stem. The pipe stem is curved and split in two longitudinal sections that have been bound together with a thong made of hide, which also wraps around a flange at the base of the bowl, fastening it to the stem. At the end opposite the bowl the stem is encircled in two locations with twisted sinew. A piece of hide decorated with small blue and larger white glass beads may may originally have had a pick attached to it. More information here: http://www.inuvialuitlivinghistory.ca/item_types/2: Inuvialuit first obtained pipes and tobacco in the 1800s through indigenous trade networks that stretched through Alaska and as far as Siberia. The MacFarlane Collection includes twenty pipes of this northern style. The bowls are made from metal, wood or stone, and with one exception the pipes have curved wooden stems split along their length and held together with a skin or sinew wrapping. Commonly a pick used for tamping tobacco and cleaning the bowl is attached to the pipe.

content: L-520 (Vanport Chert)

content: Vanport Chert, also known as Flint Ridge (OH), is smooth chert. It is every natural color and countless combinations, but black in uncommon. Thermal alteration does not produce the color green. Heat-treated specimens are hard to identify, but usually become more glossy than raw material. When weathered the surfaces become more dull. It has numerous fossil inclusions. Deposits include limestone matrix.

content: Coiled metal bracelet, with flattened large circular ends. Three rings.

content: The donor, Dr. Kaplan, says that these manillas (referring to all of the manillas in this accession, E434824 - 434849) were collected while she was carrying out research on Benin bronze casting in Benin City, Nigeria between 1984 and 1999. She purchased them from the master caster, Osaize Omodamwen, with whom she was working. The “manillas” were sold by traders from the “north” of Nigeria as scrap metal to the casters. A few of them are true “manilla” which were metal bracelets cast in Liverpool and were still being used as currency in Nigeria up into the 1960s. Others are bracelets and anklets, once worn by either men or women as ritual or prestige items and which may have also functioned as currency.

content: From Card: White brass. Base decorated with openwork designs, vessel ornenented with engravings and characters."

content: This pipe is marked with the number 250,438. However, that number appears to be incorrect, since another pipe is also marked with that number, but better fits the description. This pipe seems to match the description for 250437, (it is white brass, and engraved with Chinese characters) except that there is no openwork design.
