Book excerpt: Excerpt from Archaeological Report, 1900: Being Part of Appendix to the Report of the Minister of Education, Ontario Sir, - partly owing to pressure of indoor duty, and partly on account of absence from the city for a time, little or nothing has been done during the year in the way of original work. The Laidlaw collection has been te arranged in wall cases on a plan different from the one adopted hitherto in the museum, and it is particularly pleasing to note that this arrangement is quite satisfactory to Mr. Laidlaw, the generous donor. All the specimens, (some fifteen hundred) are placed in groups, each of which represents one of the thirtyone village sites examined by the collector. Thus arranged, one can see at a glance what may be called an object picture representing in some measure the every day life of those who occupied the Balsam Lake district, and as this life did not differ very much from that of other aborigines in this province, the grouping will thus answer a general purpose. It is not, how ever, intended to change the arrangement of all the other specimens in con formity with this method, for each plan possesses advantages. It is not only necessary to have two systems of arrangement, but several times as many, when the quantity of material and space for display make such disposition possible. The collection procured from Mr. J. S. Heath, formerly of Brantford, has been kept together as representative of an area comprising many sites of the Neutrals in what is now Brant county. In this collection all the objects that are similar in kind form distinct groups (as in the museum at large) but these being side by side illustrate conditions as they existed over the whole district examined. In last report there was a preliminary account of the Mexican collection presented by Mrs. Wm. Stuart, from the pen of that lady herself. Since then, the specimens, numbering 274, have been received and placed beside similar material from more northerly points in Mexico. In addition to this gift, Mrs. Stuart has kindly placed on loan, 43 objects from the same locality as are those that form her gift, viz., the Isthmus of Tehuantepec.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: North America's museums are treasured for their collections of Aboriginal ethnographic and archaeological objects. Yet stories of how these artifacts were acquired often reveal unethical acts and troubling chains of possession, as well as unexpected instances of collaboration. For instance, archaeological excavation of Aboriginal graves was so prevalent in the late-eighteenth century that the government of Upper Canada legislated against it, although this did little to stop the practice. Many objects were collected by non-Native outsiders to preserve cultures perceived to be nearing extinction, while other objects were donated or sold by the same Native communities that later demanded their return. Some Native people collected for museums and even created their own.

Download or read book Petun to Wyandot written by Charles Garrad and published by University of Ottawa Press. This book was released on 2014-05-15 with total page 638 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Petun to Wyandot, Charles Garrad draws upon five decades of research to tell the turbulent history of the Wyandot tribe, the First Nation once known as the Petun. Combining and reconciling primary historical sources, archaeological data and anthropological evidence, Garrad has produced the most comprehensive study of the Petun Confederacy. Beginning with their first encounters with French explorer Samuel de Champlain in 1616 and extending to their decline and eventual dispersal, this book offers an account of this people from their own perspective and through the voices of the nations, tribes and individuals that surrounded them. Through a cross-reference of views, including historical testimony from Jesuits, European explorers and fur traders, as well as neighbouring tribes and nations, Petun to Wyandot uncovers the Petun way of life by examining their culture, politics, trading arrangements and legends. Perhaps most valuable of all, it provides detailed archaeological evidence from the years of research undertaken by Garrad and his colleagues in the Petun Country, located in the Blue Mountains of Central Ontario. Along the way, the author meticulously chronicles the work of other historians and examines their theories regarding the Petun's enigmatic life story.
