Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ethnography and Philology of the Hidatsa Indians During the year 1854, while engaged in exploring the then almost unknown country along the Upper Missouri and its tributaries, the writer of this note commenced the work of collecting vocabularies of the languages and other ethnological data respecting the Indians of the Northwest. He continued this work at intervals during a period of about six years, and the materials thus accumulated were finally published in 1862 in the Transactions of the American Philosophical Society of Philadelphia, under the title of Contributions to the Ethnography and Philology of the Indian Tribes of the Missouri Valley. A brief sketch Of the Hidatsa Indians, and an incomplete vocabulary of their language, was included in that work.

Book Hidatsa Social and Ceremonial Organization

Download or read book Hidatsa Social and Ceremonial Organization written by Alfred W. Bowers and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 1992-01-01 with total page 588 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hidatsa Social and Ceremonial Organization, a study of an important horticultural Plains Indian tribe, synthesizes the rich material Alfred W. Bowers recorded in the early 1930s from the last generation of Hidatsas who lived in the historic village of Like-a-Fishhook. This documentary record of their nineteenth-century lifeways is now a classic in American ethnography. The book is distinguished for its presentation of extensive personal and ritual narratives that allow Hidatsa elders to articulate directly their conceptions of traditional culture. It combines archeological and ethnographic approaches to reconstruct a Hidatsa culture history that is shaped by a concern for cultural detail stemming from the American ethnographic tradition of Franz Boas. At the same time, its concern for the understanding of social structure reflects the influence of the British structural-functional approach of A. R. Radcliffe-Brown. The most comprehensive account ever published on the Hidatsas, it is of enduring value and interest.

This book was released on 2018-11-21 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ethnography of the Cahuilla Indians No information could be obtained regarding the Serrano ex tension westward in the plain, but there seems no reason to alter the conclusion previously arrived at that it was somewhere in the neighborhood of Cucamonga or the line between Los Angeles and San Bernardino counties. The topographically natural line of division would follow the hills, just west of Pomona, forming a northward extension of the Santa Ana mountains. On the other hand it must always be regarded as doubtful, in the absence of definite information, whether a people otherwise showing so strong a preference for a mountain habitat would have been likely to hold the large stretch of plain between Colton, Pomona, the Santa Ana river, and the San Gabriel mountains.

Download or read book Ethnology of the Yuchi Indians Classic Reprint written by Frank G. Speck and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-23 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ethnology of the Yuchi Indians In the summers of 1904 and 1905 I spent a total of about four months among the Yuchi Indians of the Creek nation in Oklahoma collecting material for the Bureau of American Ethnology. The investigation was undertaken at the recommendation of Dr. Franz Boas of Columbia University. Funds to cover transportation and the collection of ethnological specimens were furnished by the American Museum of Natural History upon both occasions under Dr. Boas's recommendation. The greater part of the ethnological material offered in this paper was obtained at the same time, and is published with the permission of both the scientific institutions concerned. Again during the winter of 1908 while holding a Harrison fellowship at the University of Pennsylvania, I was able under special provision of the Provost to make a third visit to the Yuchi for the purpose of completing my observa tions, and the studies which are embodied in the present work took their final form during this period.
