TANG PRODUCED BY THE ROUNDING OF THE ANTERIOR LATERAL MARGINS. REFER TO NEXT CARD FOR HANDLE THAT WENT WITH THIS. WEIGHT: 1 LB." FROM CARD FOR WOODEN ADZE HAFT HANDLE: "SPECIMEN GROOVED AT TOE TO RECESS LASHING. HANDLE CURVED TOWARDS TOE. N.B. THREE ADZE HAFTS WERE OBTAINED BY THE TRANSIT OF VENUS EXPEDITION FROM RIVERTON. (NOS. 21228A, 21229A, 21235A). P.T.O. IT IS APPARENT, NOT ONLY BY THEIR EXCELLENT STATE OF PRESERVATION, BUT BY THE REMAINS OF AN OLD LABEL. P.T.O. ATTACHED TO ONE SPECIMEN, THAT THEY WERE "PRESENTED" TO THE EXPEDITION, POSSIBLY FROM THE T. DANIELS PRIVATE COLLECTION. THEY ORIGINALLY ENTERED THE SMITHSONIAN COLLECTIONS ASSOCIATED WITH THREE ADZES FROM LAKE WAKATIPU, BUT THIS ASSOCIATION HOWEVER IS ENTIRELY FORTUITOUS. THE HAFTS CAN BE CONSIDERED TO BE OF LATE MANUFACTURE, FOR THEY EXHIBIT DEFINITE WORKING BY METAL TOOLS. THEY ARE OF LIGHT WEIGHT AND WERE PROBABLY DESIGNED FOR HAFTING NARROW FLAT IRON BLADES. THE LETTER X IS APPENDED AFTER EACH SPECIMEN CATALOGUE NUMBER TO DISASSOCIATE THEM FROM THE ADZES WITH WHICH THEY WERE ASSOCIATED WHEN THEY WERE ORIGINALLY CATALOGUED."

content: Adze is from Waitaha people, Lake Wakatipu, Frankton Arm, Otago, South Island. Adze handle is Maori, from Riverton, Southland, South Island.

content: From card: "The dress is of worked skin. The bottom sides terminate in fringes. There are tin danglers along the outside edge near the bottom. The front of the dress at the neck has a braided scalp (?) attached. There are also ribbons attached by thongs at the shoulders."

content: Possible scalp attached to dress examined 9-15-2009 by Dr. Douglas Owsley. Both he and Dr. JoAllyn Archambault question the association of the "possible scalp" attached to this woman's dress. Per Dr. Archambault, scalps are associated with men, not women. Therefore, this may not be an actual scalp, but may be a human hair braid only that is secured by the beaded textile? Would need further scientific examination to check for the presence of scalp tissue before this question could be definitively resolved.

content: Results of 2013 analysis of hair from the possible scalp could not determine if it was human or not.

They are depicted occasionally with a woman's face but more often she is bird-like with a marked affinity to the Mycenaean goddesses of six hundred years before. The stripes on the figure were fired and are better suited to resist the wear and tear of time. (Chesterman, James. Classical Terracotta Figures. Ward Lock, London, 1974, p. 35-36, fig. 22)

BLACK PAINTING ON INSIDE BOTTOM OF REINDEER AND MYTHICAL REINDEER ROPED TOGETHER FACING EACH OTHER. 1/83 SITES INUA LOAN. LOAN: U.S.I.A. INUA JUN 24 1988. ILLUS.: INUA CATALOGUE. USIA 1988, PL.13, P.14. LOAN RETURNED DEC 28 1990." Bentwood. USIA Inua catalogue identifies: "A caribou and its inua are illustrated on this bowl, connected via a symbolic lifeline joining the throats of the two animals. The spiritual caribou is shown with spiked appendages instead of hind limbs. Carved and painted lifelines and encircling grooves gave spiritual life even to objects made by humans."

content: This object is on loan to the Anchorage Museum at Rasmuson Center, from 2010 through 2027.

content: Source of the information below: Smithsonian Arctic Studies Center Alaska Native Collections: Sharing Knowledge website, by Aron Crowell, entry on this artifact https://alaska.si.edu/record.asp?id=88 , retrieved 10-24-2018; see web page for additional information: Bowl, Yup'ik. "When I became aware of life, we already had wooden bowls like this, just our size. Our dad had a large bowl, our mom had a smaller one, and beginning with our oldest brother we all had bowls ... When I walked into the middle of the men's house, I used to see bowls being made by elderly men." - John Phillip, Sr., 2002 This wooden food dish, painted inside with a caribou connected to a caribou spirit, has a carved bottom and a bentwood rim. Everyone had a personal eating bowl which was decorated with inherited family designs. Men and older boys ate in the qasgiq (men's ceremonial house), receiving meals brought there by their wives, daughters, or sisters. In the qasgiq, men carved bowls from driftwood pieces they collected during summer. Making new dishes was part of preparing for the Bladder Festival (Nakaciuryaraq) when the souls of seals were symbolically returned to the sea.

content: "Late 19th century. Iron and wood. This flatiron has a boat-shaped head and angular iron bar set into a wooden handle. The head has a smooth underside. A rude chiseled ornamentation is on the bar. There are two kinds of seam irons: one is used for everyday sewing to press down seams and the other is used for quilting fabrics for winter clothing. The seam iron is used to help line up separate pieces of fabric (Kim, 1988b: 399). Hough states that one kind of seam iron is capable of the two different functions and likens the Korean seam iron to a soldering iron. Bernadou Field Notes 95 "In-to [indu] Iron used for ironing seams after sewing. Pieces of clothing are commonly taken apart upon washing and re-sewed afterwards." Collected in Seoul. Ref: Hough Korean Catalog pl. XVII, fig. 1; Bernadou Field Notes 95" [from: "An Ethnography of the Hermit Kingdom: The J.B.

label: Notes

content: This small (about 1.5 inches square) stone implement is marked with number 6318, but this is probably the wrong number. The catalog card for that number says there should be only one, and the measurements match the other celt (A6318-0). However, no other markings indicate what other catalog number this could be. Therefore it will retain this number (A6318-1) until the original number can be found.

content: Mr. James Mooney

content: Accession Number Unknown

content: According to catalog card, there should only be 2 pieces with this number, not 4. This one does not match the measurements on the card. It is also numbered in different handwriting than the others, and was clearly re-numbered at some point. Also, E166081-0 and E166081-1 match the Anthropology catalogue ledger book drawing of pipe E166081, and this one does not.Therefore, it is likely that this one is not 166081. The number 200343a is etched in the bottom as well. 200343 is a pipe with a missing bowl, and the bowl is described as "highly polished", as this one is. However, this one does not fit in the pipe stem for 200343. Therefore, a bit more evidence is needed to re-associate this one with 200343, and for now it will retain the number E166081-3.

content: Anthropology catalogue ledger book indicates that E166081 and E166082 were given/lent by James Mooney to William Henry Holmes/the Smithsonian for the World's Columbian Exposition (Chicago World's Fair) of 1893.
