content: FROM CARD: "16 WHITE FEATHERS, ROUNDED TRIANGLE WITH 4 HOLES EDGED IN RED-CONVEX HUMAN FACE IN CENTER ENAMEL TEETH AND BLACK TRIM. INVENTORIED 1977."

content: The catalog card gives Starikwikhpak as the provenience but this database record says Rasboinsky, based on William Fitzhugh research with Nelson field number records. The site Nelson identified as "Starikwikhpak" is actually Kuigpalleq -- located near the head of Kashunuk River (i.e., at the Kashunuk Slough-Yukon River confluence, across from present-day Pilot Station). The site Nelson identified as "Rasboinsky" is actually Anqercaq -- formerly located on the right bank of the Yukon River about 21 km northeast of (upstream from) Pilot Station. Calista Corporation applied for this site pursuant to ANCSA Section 14(h)(1); however, a 1982 field investigation determined (through on-ground survey and oral history research) that the site had been entirely lost to erosion. (Note: Nelson's 1899 monograph [Plate LXXXII (facing p. 247)] includes a winter scene of this village.)

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=93 , retrieved 10-23-2021; see web page for additional information: Mask, Yup'ik. If a shaman bent down over a nepcetaq, it was said, the mask would rise from the floor and stick to his face. These and other dancing masks were worn during Kelek, a winter festival held in the communal house to invite, honor, and feed the spirits of game animals. The purpose was to ask the spirits to return in spring and to give their bodies to the hunters. Masks portrayed animals, animal spirits (yuit, or "inner persons") or tuunrat (helping spirits) that assisted the shaman in his communications with other worlds. Yup'ik Elders from the lower Yukon River remember that this type of a mask was called nepcetaq [shaman mask] and that it was used only by an angalkuq [shaman]. If a shaman bent down over a nepcetaq that lay on the floor, it was said, the mask would rise and stick to his face, even if weighted down with a pile of heavy parkas. Nepcetat and ordinary kegginaqut [masks] were used during Kelek, a late winter dance festival held in the qasgiq [men's community house] to invite, honor, and feed the spirits of game animals. The purpose was to ask the spirits to return in spring and to give their reincarnated bodies to the hunters. Kelek is also called Itruka'ar, Agayuyaraq and, in historical sources, the Inviting-In Feast or Masquerade. Paul John of Nelson Island, like many contemporary Elders, views the old ceremony as a kind of prayer: "Our ancestors used masks, calling it Agayuliyaraq [way of making prayer], as resolutions to petition God for the things they needed." Masks were used for other Yup'ik and Cup'ik ceremonies as well, including Qaariitaaq, Kevgiryaraq [the Messenger Feast, also called Kevgaq], and Nakaciuryaraq [the Bladder Festival]. Masks often portrayed animals, their spirits (yuit or inner "persons"), or sometimes tuunrat [helping spirits] who assisted the shaman in his communications with the spirit world. Some tuunrat, it was believed, held animal yuit in the sky world until the shaman flew to the moon to release them. Songs, masks, and dancing-all composed and directed by the shamans-brought these stories and spiritual beings to life in the qasgiq. The faces of nepcetaq masks, like this one with its wide toothy grin, may represent the controlling tuunraq moon spirit, while the holes that surround it may be openings or star-holes in the sky through which the yuit pass on their journey to earth.

Two holes have been drilled through the handle for attaching tangs that in turn would have been connected to a blade. More information here: http://www.inuvialuitlivinghistory.ca/item_types/58: An ulu is a knife with a crescent-shaped blade attached to a handle made of wood, bone or antler. The design of an ulu ensures that the cutting force is centred more over the middle of the blade than with an ordinary knife. Ulus are used for skinning animals, scraping skins, cutting hides when sewing as well as for other household tasks. They are sometimes called 'women's knives' since they usually are associated with women's tasks.

content: "KAITAKA PAEPAEROA" CLOAK WITH WIDE "TANIKO" BORDERS ON THREE SIDES (ACCORDING TO D.R. SIMMONS THIS IS AN EAST COAST BAY OF ISLANDS STYLE). THERE ARE 97 CONTINUOUS WEFT ROWS AT THE NECK, & 96 AT THE LOWER BORDER WHICH ARE 1.5 CM WIDE. THE GARMENT IS SHAPED BY INSERTS INCLUDING TWO LATERIAL WEDGE-SHAPES, AND TWO MESIAL WEDGE-SHAPED COMPOUND INSERTS. THERE ARE TWO PANELS OF DECORATION EMPLOYING RED, GREEN, AND BLUE WOOL THREAD IN SHORT LOOP ORNAMENTATION. THE "TANIKO" COLORS ARE BLACK, BROWN AND NATURAL COLORS WITH RED, ORANGE, BLUE AND GREEN WOOL COLORS ON THE TRIANGLES. THE CLOAK IS BADLY WATER STAINED. THE EXTENSIVE WATER STAINING MAY POSSIBLY BE A RESULT OF THE 1865 FIRE IN THE SMITHSONIAN CASTLE, OR PERHAPS ALSO WAS SUSTAINED FROM USE OR DURING THE OCEAN VOYAGE FROM NEW ZEALAND TO THE U.S.? HAS ORIGINAL PEALE TAGS, 526 & 529. THE CLOAK WAS EXAMINED BY MARTHA COOPER, 1967, BY D.R. SIMMONS 1974, AND DESCRIBED BY DESMOND KAHOTEA, 1984.

content: FROM CARD: "D. R. SIMMONS: PAEPAEROA CLOAK WITH TANIKO ON THREE SIDES (EAST COAST STYLE). DECORATIVE RED AND BLUE WOOL STITCHING IN TWO PANELS AT LEFT AND RIGHT BOTTOM, ORANGE, RED, BLUE WOOL USED IN TANIKO. WEFT LINES 1.5 CM APART WITH EIGHT VERTICAL INSERTS ON EITHER SIDE. NOV. 1974."

content: Peale catalogue identifies # 523 - 530 as "Blanket mats called "Kaitoke" woven by hand from thread made of the native flax (Phormium tenax)." Additional information from D.R. 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.

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=598 , retrieved 12-28-2021; see web page for additional information: Skin scraper, Inupiaq. This wooden scraper has a stone blade and is carved to mold perfectly into the hand. To prepare animal skins for making clothing, women used scrapers to clean away flesh, fat, and hair, and after drying the hides, to soften them by breaking down their fibers. Skins were further worked by hand using water and fish eggs to make them soft.

content: There is a large blue glass Russian trade bead embedded in the wood handle above the blade, with traces of a dark colored resin around it.
