content: From card: "Kayak was sent as a gift to Peabody Museum, Yale Univ. New Haven, Conn., Nov. 6, 1947. (Kayak has) upcurved bow, w/ broad, slotlike interspace; spur-like point projecting aft above nearly vertical stern; hatch circular, located aft of center. 8/2/56: A sealskin float that evidently went w/ this boat because it bore the same no., is still in the collection. Kayak illus. In BAE 18th Annual Report; pl. 54, fig. 10; p. 137. Float board, toggle harpoon, & coiled line illus. in USNM Rept, 1900, pl. 14; p. 298."

content: Harpoon, line, & float board were exhibited in Hall 9, NHB, removed 3/1998. For extended remarks on exhibited items, see condition report in Anthropology Conservation Lab, MSC. 160337 was originally catalogued as a kayak, which was subsequently transferred to the Peabody Museum. However, a toggle harpoon, attached line, float board, and sealskin float also bear this catalogue number & evidently were associated w/ this kayak. These objects were not transferred to the Peabody & remain in the collections. See also visor # E160337A-0.

content: Collins Ms. p. 737 describes the kayak and has a copy of information from accession papers relating to this kayak set. This document lists several native-language terms for the items included in the set. In 2008, Steven Jacobson, an expert in Alaskan Yup'ik language, identified the language as Central Yup'ik: "The first word is elqiaq, 'visor'; the second word is acaluq, 'kayak tray'; the third word is nuqaq, 'atlatl'; the fourth word is nanerpak, 'seal spear'; the fifth word is nuusaarpak, 'large three-pointed spear'; the sixth word might be narulkaq, 'spear'; the seventh word is tegun, 'seal recovery hook'; the eighth word is anguarun, 'paddle'; the ninth word is probably caqun, 'sealskin poke'." Many of these pieces are no longer in the collection. Kayak and equipment are also described in U.S. National Museum Bulletin 127, p. 208. Kayak is visible in photo negative # 31357 - the single hole kayak hanging on wall in right in photo.

content: Blanket 89193 is similar in design to the one Illus. Fig. 564a, p. 374, in "The Chilkat Blanket" by George T. Emmons, Memoirs of the American Museum of Natural History, Vol. 3, part 4, 1907.

content: Blanket robe woven of wool from mountain sheep and cedar bark fiber. The shape is pentagonal, with the bottom edge diverging from the rectangular form by dropping lower in the center, forming a chevron shape. The upper edge is bound by whip stitching a thin leather strip (0.5-0.8 cm wide) with brown fur attached so it makes a fur border. The two sides are finished with 10 cm long cotton fringe sewn to the sides. The bottom has a fringe (warp) of 50 cm long of natural off-white wool, with cedar bark fiber twisted with the fringes. In addition to the fringes and fur, the woven material has been finely finished with a natural off-white wool border reinforced on the sides with additional strands. The design is in dyed wool in black, yellow, and turquoise, along with natural off-white. The design has a central panel and two side panels, separated only by a thin off-white line, the whole framed by a double border of yellow on the inside and blank on the outside with thin lines of off-white and black to separate the border colors and the border from the design. There is a 20 cm long piece of red binding tape attached at one end at the back of the shawl and a tab where a second one apparently was attached earlier.

content: Per artists Delores Churchill and Evelyn Vanderhoop, 2015, the side fringes were added later to this blanket and are not traditional.

content: Alan Zuboff, Linda Wynne, Shgen George, weaver, and Ruth Demmert made the following comments during the Tlingit Recovering Voices Community Research Visit, March 13-March 24, 2017. The blanket is Tlingit made and features a diving whale design. The diving whale design is not clan-specific, and so weavers did not need permission to use it, which allowed for widespread use. The Tsimshian started doing these designs first, and a Klukwan leader got ahold of one of these items, and his wife took it apart to figure out how it was made. This object may have been an early design later widely adopted by the Tlingit. The fur on this object may be sea otter or beaver, but it may be too short for sea otter. The side fringe is made of twine and discoloration of the fringe may be due to storage.

content: Note: original cultural attribution was Premorska tribe, which was changed to Chnagmiut Eskimo, and object has been listed in the electronic database as Chnagmiut Eskimo. On p. 287, B.A.E. Bulletin 30, Pt. 1, entry under Chnagmiut (a Bering Strait Yup'ik group), it is noted that "Premorska" is a name sometimes used for these people, derived from Russian - "people of the sea." Premorska has also been referenced by Dall (p. 223 in Alaska and Its Resources, 1870) as a name applied by the Russians to the Kuigpagmiut Yup'ik.

content: From card: "Sticks of various cuttings "formerly used in measuring parts in constructing a canoe" [kayay]. See also 280363. Name: Ung yah'jug um = canoe [kayak] O spute [measure]."

content: Kayak measuring sticks Illus. Fig. 3 p. 29 in Anichtchenko, Evguenia. 2017. "Reconstructing The St. Lawrence Island Kayak; From Forgotten Watercraft to a Bering Sea Maritime Network." Alaska Journal of Anthropology. 15 (1&2) : 25-48. Identified there: "The "sticks" are narrow triangular pieces of wood about 1.5 cm thick, 2–3 cm wide, and ranging in length between 12 and 39 cm. Rectangular cuts at one or both ends of these artifacts are reminiscent of mortise joints of kayak deck crosspieces, ribs, and flat-bottom crosspieces, but the precise method of use is obscure. A single hole drilled into each of these timbers likely served to accommodate a cord that held several sticks together. The very existence of this method of measuring is in apparent contradiction with the notion of kayaks being tailored to their owners' individual body measurements, but perhaps indicates methods used by a master builder in the process of building a commissioned kayak. Instead of summoning the future owner every time a new measurement was needed, the builder may have had a "fitting session" by recording his client's anthropometric data with wooden sticks. The specific purpose of these objects is captured in their indigenous name recorded by [Henry] Collins in the collection catalog: uuqyah' juqum ("to make kayak")."
