content: Although the catalog card for this item says it is from Burial 3 of House E, Ford's 1959 report on the site does not list it as from the burial and instead lists it as from the floor of the house. Therefore, this item is not considered to be funerary and the "Burial 3" attribution is believed to be an error in repetition in preparing the catalog cards.

content: Mr. James Mooney

content: Bureau Of American Ethnology

label: Notes

content: From card: "Refer to 154,349 for the original of this spec. [, this copy of] which was apparently made at the instigation of James Mooney, when he was conducting his studies in Kiowa Heraldry in 1904. It has originally been a Crow shield which the Kiowa had captured from them, before they had been removed to the South. The Mooney No. 229,910 which was applied to it does not apply because that number is for a set of tent and shield model poles. This reproduction has a sheet metal base, with a piece of stiff skin on the back and the front made of the proper kind of light-colored skin, probably not deer but cow, though very soft and well prepared. Original observations on this were made by Joseph Weckler, 8/1/41 and amended by R. Elder 5/23/56. Douglas and D'Harnancourt in "Indian Art in the United States, 1941 published an illustration of this specimen, p. 149, with the incorrect No. of 229889 which is that of a model (small size) made for Mooney's studies. 3/16/66 Dr. Donald Collier, Chicago M. Nat. History says that the specimen they have from us [Field Museum Cat. No. is 62,578] is not exactly the same as this copy which Mooney had made." See remarks for E154349-0 for additional information. Design on shield, painted in red and black, represents a black bear facing a row of bullet marks; red stripes on upper right, black stripes on lower right. The bear is represented with only two legs, drawn up under him in a running position, and moving to the left. Five separate bear paw marks are shown in a line to the right behind him.

content: Shield model. Black bear at center with five tracks behind it, facing row of bullet marks, red stripes on upper right, black stripes on lower right. See 229889-229890 for other models of this shield. 20" (51 cm). Records: Originally a Crow shield, captured by the Kiowas before they were removed to the south. Illustrated in Douglas and Harnoncourt 1941: 149. (C). (from Merrill, William L. et al. 1997. A Guide to the Kiowa Collections at the Smithsonian Institution.

It is made from bone, and at one end has a hole and two notches along each side that likely had been used for attaching to a thong, together with other bow-making tools. More information here: http://www.inuvialuitlivinghistory.ca/item_types/11: Sinew backing was attached to a bow using a marlinspike and a pair of cable twisters. One end of the marlinspike is tapered, and is used to raise strands of sinew when lashing them to the stave, and for tucking in the ends of the lashings. Cable twisters are turned outwards in opposite directions at each end. They are used in pairs for twisting strands of braided sinew into cables that run along the centre part of the bow stave.

content: FROM CARD: "OF DANCE OF GHOST. ILLUS. IN USNM REPT, 1895; FIG. 146; P. 497."

content: Listed on page 41 in "The Exhibits of the Smithsonian Institution at the Panama-Pacific International Exposition, San Francisco, California, 1915", in section "Arts of the Northwest Coast Tribes".

content: Per Dr. Aaron Glass, 2020: The ghosts were/are one of the spirit beings that initiate Kwakwaka'wakw T'seka (Winter Ceremonial or Red Cedar Bark Ceremonies) dancers. The Ghost Dance is not so much a dance enacting ghosts, but by people enacting ancestral encounters with ghosts that bestowed hereditary rights to the dances/songs. Some Ghost Dance rings have carved skulls, indicating the encounter with ghosts (dead humans), and in this sense can be hard to distinguish from Hamat'sa (Cannibal Dance) regalia that also sometimes feature carved skulls. Ghost dancers often cover their faces with shrouds of some kind (the Berlin head ring has a curtain of shredded cedar bark that covers the face), and they also cover their face with their hands as the characteristic choreographic gesture. Though the dancers wear rings and not masks, I have seen contemporary Ghost Dance masks that appear like skulls and have hair covering the faces. The dance is still passed down to some families, though it is not terribly common. Some information on the Ghost Dance can be found in Boas's 1897 "Social Organization and Secret Societies" book (pg. 408: an origin story; pg. 482: description of the dance itself and its regalia and song; pg. 497: figures of the 2 rings in question; pg. 499 has a list of Ft. Rupert dances in ranking order, and it is #44 of 53). There is no specific cultural sensitivity around the dance or regalia due to the association with ghosts, at least that I have ever heard of.
