content: FROM CARD: "PROF. BAIRD MADE AN EARLY COLLECTION OF MISC. TAPA. FIGURED BY H. W. KRIEGER, DESIGN AREAS IN OCEANIA. (ADDITIONAL INFORMATION GIVEN BY K. P. EMORY, BISHOP MUSEUM, 6/24/41) INVENTORIED 1975."

content: 4 layers stitched/tied together. Skirt? Reddish dye, turning yellow unevenly. 5 stamp designs on top layer. No watermark. Very brittle.

content: Dr. Adrienne Kaeppler identifies this as of Hawaiian manufacture.

content: This Hawaiian pa'u tapa is rectangular in shape and is made up of four separate layers attached along one edge. The layers are attached, using cords made from lengths of rolled tapa, at eight more or less evenly spaced locations along the top edge. All four layers are approximately the same reddish/orange color and all layers appear to have had an unknown oil evenly applied. There are thin yellow areas which occur where there are folds. Approximately half of the areas along the outside, unbound edges, are a darker shade of red to almost black. The tapa layers are thin and still fairly flexible. All layers are shear, not showing any beater marks. There is also no evidence of overlapping sections making it appear to be manufactured from a single piece of tapa. The front panel is the only one with decoration. A black pigment was used throughout creating patterns with the use of carved bamboo stamps. The stamps were used to create a dense pattern which forms two strips (14 mm to 16 mm wide) which run along the short edges. Interspersed through the tapa are small groupings of 3 wavy, parallel lines. There are also random black smudges of pigment. There is a large area which has been cut out of the front, decorated panel. The cutout measures approximately 35 cm x 34 cm. Seven small (5 mm) dark yellow seeds were found sandwiched between the third and fourth panels. They were removed and placed with other unreplaceable fragments in Anthropology Conservation Lab treatment report file.

content: See USNM AR for 1902, p. 426, where basket is identified as "procured from Sitka [sic], Alaska Indians by J.J. McLean, to which place it had doubtless drifted in trade from the Fraser River (British Columbia, Canada) Region." While the basket was actually catalogued as from "Hoonia" (i.e. Hoonah), not Sitka, the identification of the basket as Fraser River Salish type seems correct and it has been stored with that collection.

General information on drills is available here: http://www.inuvialuitlivinghistory.ca/item_types/20: The bow drills in the MacFarlane Collection were used for boring holes into wood, antler, bone and ivory. The drill spindle (shaft) has a bit at one end, and the other end is shaped to fit into a bearing that is held between the teeth. The spindle is rotated by wrapping a slack thong attached at each end of a drill bow around it, and moving the bow back and forth. Ancestral Inuvialuit also used another type of bow drill for starting fires.
