content: From card: "Eight strands of blue and pink beads, spaced with leather strips. Made by Captain Sam's wife. Formerly cat no. 200922, Granier Coll."

content: See also E200922. Originally cataloged as E200922, Shoshone, then exchanged in 1915 to Anton Heitmuller in Washington DC. Heitmuller must have subsequently sold or traded it to Victor Justice Evans, who then donated it back to the museum in 1931, and it was recataloged as E359303. Heitmuller and Evans were both Washington, D.C. collectors during the same time period. An old label with this artifact identifies it as: "Necklace - made by Capt. Sam's wife - Capt. Sam is chief of the Western Shoshone Indians - Nevada".

content: Entry on E8944A - D in Army Medical Museum ledger book for Section 6, Miscellaneous Section, under A.M.M. number 378: Received October 29, 1869, from Bvt. Col. A.H. Hoff, Asst. Surgeon, U.S.A. - "Two pairs of "chop-sticks" [sic] - implements use by the Indians about Sitka in taking their food."

content: Florence Sheakley and Ruth Demmert, both elders, made the following comments during the Tlingit Recovering Voices Community Research Visit, March 13-March 24, 2017. Originally the design on this spoon was used as a filler design, but today people attribute it to Deisheetan clan, who have a bear design. The presence of a finger design suggests this object comes from Kaagwaantaan clan. This is part of a set that includes E8944A-0, E8944B-0, E8944C-0, E8944D-0

Mus., New York, identifies this as probable inner coffine of # 154953 since it has same titles & name. He says "On floor is the goddess of the West, her headdress surmounted by a falcon wearing the atef crown." XXI Dynasty. Exhibit, Hall 26, 1976." 1978 NMNH slide set caption: "Inner coffin and lid, wooden, painted with hieroglyphs and ritual scenes, 3-dimensional portrait head at top, belonged to Tenet-Khonsu, chantress of Amon-Ra, Egyptian, Thebes, 21st Dynasty, ca. 1000 B.C." See also Catalogue No. 154953, which is outer coffin and lid of Tentkhonsu.

content: From NMNH Exhibit Hall "Eternal Life in Ancient Egypt" label for this artifact, 2011: Inner coffin of Tentkhonsu, 1025-980 B.C. Tentkhonsu's coffin set included this inner coffin, as well as an outer coffin and a board (A154953) to protect the mummy. The set was one of 153 burials from Bab el-Gasus, a tomb chamber in Deir el-Bahari where Egyptians moved the coffins and mummies of elite 21st-dynasty families. The lid presents an idealized portrait of Tentkhonsu. Tentkhonsu's mummy has never been identified. Tentkhonsu means "She who belongs to the god Khonsu" - a name that shows she came from an elite Theban family that staffed the city's temples. She sang at festivals, and, like most Egyptian women, probably married by 14 and ran a household. If she reached age 40, she would have outlived many of her contemporaries. Tentkhonsu's coffin was designed to guide her past the dangers of the Netherworld. The coffin interior tells the story of Tentkhonsu's spiritual passage from the Netherworld to rebirth. The scenes on the coffin exterior wrap around Tentkhonsu, providing knowledge and protection for the journey ahead. The coffin's exterior paintings shield the mummy with magic spells and scenes of her journey to rebirth.

content: Card: "Kutani, red and gold porcelain. Form: an octagon body, an almost square shoulder, a large circular neck, flaring towards the lip, a high raised cover with kneeling figure for a knob. Decoration: The sides are separated by bars of gold and red and the panels are painted with landscapes with figures and flowers in gold, red, green, black, brown, and salmon colors over the glaze. The panels opposite are alike; the base, shoulder, neck, and cover have gold designs on a red ground. Mark painted in red on the bottom.The head of the figure or knob is broken off."

content: The catalog card mentions that the head of the kneeling figure is broken off. This had been missing, but was found to have been renumbered ET8403. It is a ceramic knob in the shape of a human head, and fits on the kneeling figure on top of the covered jar.
