content: From card: "Pouch-shaped with broad band serving as handle. Knotted by hand from fiber of pineapple leaf. Original color yellowish white, dyed with lateral stripes of black. Used by native hunter to carry his powder, gravels for missiles, and dry leaves for wadding his gun. Garner: "This bag is netted by hand, the thread spun by hand and twisted by rolling it on the thigh. They use no wheel, spindle or stack of any kind to spin it. It is then woven or netted into various forms. The material used is the fiber of the pineapple leaf. The color, when clean, is a yellowish white. The dye used for the stripes is made of barks, roots, etc., of several kinds. This particular bag was used by a 'pangue or Pfan hunter to carry his powder, gravels for missiles and dry plantain leaves for wadding his gun." Cleaned, see Restoration Record 12-23-64. Lent to Herbert F. Johnson Museum of Art, 6/24/88. LOAN RETURNED FEB 8 1990"

content: 8 microscope slides were made of the materials from prayer sticks under this Catalog number at an unknown time, probably during the sampling done by Bill Merrill in 1981. Repatriation transferred these slides to Collections in 2016 and they are currently stored with the remaining prayer sticks. Scanned microscopic images from these slides were added to the Emu conservation report for the Merrill sampling of E176550.

Red conical headdress with suggestion of a bird with two eyes over ears with indentations. Large rose-colored body covered with black vest and long blue and beige batik skirt. Jointed wooden arms with rods attached to hands. Unlike other puppets, this one seems to have been used: paint peeling, clothes dirty and torn.

Fig. 172, p. 177 in Crowell, Aron, Amy F. Steffian, and Gordon L. Pullar. 2001. Looking both ways: heritage and identity of the Alutiiq people. Fairbanks, Alaska: University of Alaska Press.

content: Source of the information below: Smithsonian Arctic Studies Center Alaska Native Collections: Sharing Knowledge website, by Aron Crowell, entry on this artifact http://alaska.si.edu/record.asp?id=286, retrieved 8-28-2012: Halibut hook, Sugpiaq (Alutiiq), Koniag; Kodiak Island, Alaska. iqsak "fishhook" - Language: Koniag Sugpiaq (Kodiak Island dialect) Halibut was a staple food, eaten fresh, dried, or smoked. The large fish were taken using V-shaped wooden hooks that floated a short distance above the sea floor, held down by a stone sinker. This hook is carved with animal faces which faced downward so that bottom-dwelling halibut could see and be attracted to them. A strong line made of twisted kelp, sinew, or baleen extended up to an inflated animal stomach buoy on the surface.

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

content: Identified by Zinaida Ivanova, Arctic Institute of Culture and Arts, Yakutsk, Sakha (Yakutia) Republic, Russia Federation, 11-7-2012 as ceremonial cup for feasting, or choron, used for fermented mare's milk/koumiss.

content: Kumys (kumis, kumiss or koumiss) is a fermented milk product traditionally made from mare's milk (though industrial-scale production today generally uses cow's milk), which is popular in Central Asia, parts of Russia, and Eastern Europe. It is consumed both as food as well as an alcoholic drink.

content: Reference: Ivanova-Unarova, Zinaida, 2017. Siberian Collections in the U.S. Museums. Yakutsk. Object is identified there: Goblet, ornamented. Choron, byradakh. 19th century, first half. Birch. Dimensional, contoured, three-side notched, moon-like carving, hollowing. H.: 48, D.: 20.This tall, elongated choron on a platform is standing on one narrow leg and is used for drinking kumys. The rim is traditionally decorated with a blessing tarakhoyu combed ornament. The body is divided into two equal parts. The egg-shaped bottom supports the upper part, which is shaped like a matarchakh wooden box that narrows at the top. The main decoration is tonoghosoyu vertebrae ornament that is carved into the body in single or group bands. The entasis and the middle of the upper part are accentuated by an ilimkharagha mesh ornament. All items needed for preparing and ritual drinking of kumys are considered to be sacred.
