Looking both ways: heritage and identity of the Alutiiq people. Fairbanks, Alaska: University of Alaska Press.

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=172, retrieved 8-29-2012: Mask, Sugpiaq (Alutiiq), Koniag. ggiinaquq "mask" - Language: Koniag Sugpiaq (Alaska Peninsula dialect) Sugpiaq masks represented ancestors, supernatural beings, and the personified spirits of game animals; all were ritually summoned to the qasgiq (ceremonial house) during winter festivals. The visitations of mask spirits were dramatized by dance, drumming, song, oratory, and enactments of hunting expeditions. This large mask, in appearance part human and part bird, may have been suspended from the ceiling of the qasgiq with a rope so that performers could dance behind it or send it flying across the room.

STRINGS ARE ATTACHED TO THE LEATHER BY WHICH IT IS BOUND AROUND THE LEG. SEE WILSON'S PREHISTORIC ART, P. 577, ILL, 576. INVENTORIED 1977. LOANED TO THE S. I. CENTENNIAL COMM. 7-9-75. LOAN RETURNED MAR 22 1990." Note: The catalogue card identifies the donor/collector as J.W. Jenkins. The Anthropology ledger book entries are also a bit unclear on the name of the donor. However, the Smithsonian Institution Annual Report for the year 1874 identifies this donation as from Professor J.W.P. Jenks, Museum of Brown University, Providence. In the Winter and Spring of 1874, Professor Jenks spent five months hunting in the Everglades around Lake Okeechobee in Southern Florida, a detailed account of which he afterwards published: Jenks, J. W. P.; 1884; Hunting in Florida in 1874. As a result of this tour he collected at his own expense, and presented to the museum at Brown University, collections, including artifacts of the Seminole Indians, as well as presenting a small amount of material to the Smithsonian. - F.

content: From card: "Old label: 'C. Ringgold, Ese Ese Poipois, N. Zealand mat'. D. R. Simmons: Paepaeroa cloak with taniko (taranaki style) on three sides with two blocks at left and right bottom. Some red wool used in the taniko. Weft lines 1 cm. Apart with sixteen vertical inserts on left side and ten inserts on right side and double insert at the centre. Nov 1974."

Simmons, Curator, Auckland Institute and Museum, Auckland, New Zealand, 1973. Simmons notes that these cloaks would more properly be called Kaitaka, i.e. flax cloaks with patterned taniko borders, because Kaitoke = earthworm.
