Book excerpt: Excerpt from Anthropological Papers of the American Museum of Natural History, Vol. 25: Vol. XXV, Part I Still another negative feature merits attention. Several Plains tribes notably the Hidatsa, Blackfoot, and Arapaho utilize widespread tales to account for the origin of rituals. For example, the Blood combine the piqued buffalo wife story with an explanation of the beginning of the Horn society. This type is singularly lacking among the Crow. They have, of course, traditions purporting to explain the origin of ceremonies, but these are plotless narratives of individual Sxperiences with the powers revealing the performances.

This book was released on 2016-09-30 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Anthropological Papers of the American Museum of Natural History, 1908, Vol. 1 In ancient Peru the mode of attaching single feathers to head-dresses, to plumes (so often found on the false heads of the mummy-bundles), and to similar Objects, was both ingenious and effectual. These ornaments were usually made of rather short feathers, which necessitated the addition of something to the shaft to increase its length; and this added material must be of sufficient stiffness to support the feather in an upright position. For this purpose a piece of rush, or stout cord of vegetable fibre or cotton, was generally used. One of the most common forms is shown in Fig. 1, a. The end-oi the quill is bent over upon itself; the cord or rush is passed in between the two parts Of the shaft (carried around it from left to right), passing over the cord, and up under it on the left-hand side. When this knot is drawn taut, the two parts of the quill are held tightly together. In some cases the cord was carried several times around the shaft before being knotted. Frequently the quill was split, and half of its cylinder removed, before bending it over. Fig. 1, b, shows this knot firmly drawn and the ends of the cord twisted together. When a piece of rush was used and twisted in this manner, and allowed to dry, it was generally stiff enough to support the feather in the required position. When this was not the case, or when a cord of other vegetable fibre lacking the required stiffness, or cotton, was employed, a second piece was frequently added, which was attached in one of the two ways shown in Fig. 1, c. It was either passed between the two parts of the first cord, just above the quill or around the shaft, just below the knot The ends were then brought up and twisted, together, forming the third cord, and the three were braided, as in Fig. 1, d.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Anthropological Papers of the American Museum of Natural History, Vol. 1: Part IV.; Ethnology of the Gros Ventre The following information on the Gros Ventre was collected in the winter and early spring Of 1901, at the Fort Belknap Reservation in northern Mon tana, as part of the Mrs. Morris K. Jesup Expedition. Very few of the statements made, unless such is obviously the case, are based on observation. In general, where nothing is said to the contrary, they are founded on state ments made by the Indians. The introductory explanations that have been made in regard to the Arapaho1 apply also to the following material. The alphabet used for rendering Gros Ventre words is the same as that employed for Arapaho. Additional sounds are 6 and ii, which are open, and k', a palatal k.

This book was released on 2018-05 with total page 680 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Anthropological Papers of the American Museum of Natural History, 1916, Vol. 17 The horse culture complex of the American Indian offers an excellent opportunity to study diffusion, because most of the essential facts are obtainable. The horse was introduced by Europeans at an early date and spread ahead of interior exploration. In particular, many of the tribes west of the Mississippi River became. Horsemen before their discovery by Europeans. The history of horse introduction is briefly outlined in the American Anthropologist, Vol. 16, N o. 1, pp. 1 - 25. The investigation here reported is the intensive study of collections of riding gear and horse-using appliances to be found in anthropological collections. The material avail able in the Museum gives us a representative series for each important tribe in the horse-using area so that we may proceed in confidence. A preliminary statement of the results attained in this study were published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Vol. 1, p. 254. In the selection and comparison of specimens the writer has been aided by Mr. William A. Sabine, assistant in the Museum, whose great knowledge of specimens and their distribution was indispensable to the task. Other acknowledgments are due to Mr. S. Ichikawa for the illustrations and to my secretary, Miss Bella Weitzner, for gathering reference material.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Anthropological Papers of the American Museum of Natural History, 1924: Volumes 21 and 22 Since in culture the Hidatsa differ from the Crow far more than the affinity of the two languages and hence presumable recency of their separa tion would lead us to expect, it seems natural to refer such divergence as exists to Mandan influence on the Hidatsa. This interpretation would lead to thoroughly satisfactory results if we could be sure that recently collected Mandan data indicating cultural identity with the Hidatsa reflect ancient Mandan conditions. Unfortunately, we are frequently without the means of checking our information on account of the inadequacy of the early accounts.
