The upper part of sound hole is covered with a split quill lashed with sinews, the lower edge of quill, about even with the lower face of the pitch plug and leaving an air channel between the quill cover and plug. Another split quill covers the lower part of sound hole with a space of a quarter of an inch between the quills. This quill forms the sharp edge or lip of the sound hole. Five finger holes are made in the tube below the sound hole, one of which is filled with pitch. A stuffed ring of leather is placed on the tube which fits it closely at one place. This ring is constricted by a string, by adjusting this constricted portion over the sound hole, a slight change in the pitch of the sound can be made. This ring is decorated with beads, porcupine quills, and feathers.”

content: FROM CARD: "DESCRIBED P. 212 BULLETIN 127 USNM." This West Greenland kayak is illustrated and described in detail in pp. 232-234 of "Kayaks of Greenland: The History and Development of the Greenlandic Hunting Kayak, 1600-2000" by Harvey Golden, 2006, White House Grocery Press, Portland, OR. A copy of the relevant pages is filed in Anthropology Processing Lab accession file Per Harvey Golden, 3-5-2008, the end knob tied with string to the large double bladed paddle stored with kayak # E129576 may actually go with kayak # E35667 ?

content: As of 2008, one single blade paddle is stored with the kayak, and noted to have been found inside the kayak when the kayak was moved from the Garber Butler Building to MSC, but it is unclear if it actually really belongs with this kayak?

content: From old tag stored with the kayak: "35,667 - Collins 826. Greenland Kaiak, Holstenberg, 1878. Collected by N.P. Scudder. 17 ft, 3 in. l., 19 in. wide. All fixtures missing except one double paddle." From p. 212 of U.S. National Museum Bulletin 127: "Kaiak. Type used by the Eskimos on the west coast of Greenland. The boat has sharp pointed ends shod with bone: has rising floor, nearly vertical sides: moderate sheer at bow, but stern rises higher. The covered deck is flat except forward of the central manhole. Dimensions of boat. - Length 17 feet 3 inches; beam 19 inches; depth, 7 1/2 inches. Collected by N. P. Scudder."

content: This kayak is included on a shipping invoice dated June 23, 1947, filed in Accession 36096, recording the transfer of a number of boats from the Division of Engineering to the Division of Ethnology.

content: From Card: "With strap. Carried in war." Illus. BAE 14th Annual Report, Pl. CXXII, facing p. 988. (Old glass Negative # 1457, Smithsonian Institution National Anthropological Archives, NAA inv # 9531100.) These artifacts are described in Merrill, William L. 1997. A guide to the Kiowa collections at the Smithsonian Institution. Smithsonian contributions to anthropology, no. 40. Washington, D.C.: Smithsonian Institution Press. The set is identified there as a dog soldier standard (Pobon). The sash is described on p. 15: Rawhide sash painted red with large slit at one end and small holes at other. Bundle of feathers at bottom of slit. Length 82" (208 cm.). The staff is described on p. 29 (under the incorrect catalogue number of 176692 #2): Wooden shaft with otter skin, bead, feather, and twisted fur pendants at one end, feathers tied at two points along shaft, wooden pendant shaped like roach spreader and painted red and green attached at mid-section. Length 72" (183 cm.). Additional information on p. 15 notes this from the records: "It was the duty of the warrior to fasten [the staff] about his neck by means of a strap [sash] and then advance upon the enemy and thrust the staff into the earth. Thus he must keep his post until the battle is over. If unsuccessful in the fight he must die in this position, unless some of this comrades release him. The Dog Soldiers were a society of young warriors who took the lead in all military affairs and acted as police of the tribe." Note re photos: negative # 2008-10821 is an overall shot of the sash; negative # 2008-10822 is an overall shot of the sash and the staff together.
