For James Hagerty Acknowledgements I wish to extend my most sincere appreciation to my dissertation committee. Your influence on my work is, perhaps, apparent, but I am truly grateful for the guidance you have provided over the years. Your patience and support while I balanced the weight of a museum career and the completion of my dissertation meant the world! I would certainly be remiss to not thank the staff, trustees, and volunteers at the Millicent Rogers Museum for bearing with me while I finalized my degree. Your kind words, enthusiasm, and encouragement were greatly appreciated. I know I looked dreadfully tired in the weeks prior to the completion of my dissertation and I thank you for not mentioning it. The Couse Foundation, the University of Oklahoma’s Charles M. Russell Center, and the School of Visual Arts, likewise, deserve a heartfelt thank you for introducing me to the wonderful world of Taos and supporting my research. A very special thank you is needed for Ginnie and Ernie Leavitt, Carl Jones, and Byron Price.

  • Jesse Walter Fewkes 1850-1930
    NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIRS VOLUME XV -NINTH MEMOIR BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIR OF JESSE WALTER FEWKES 1850-1930 BY WALTER HOUGH PRESENTED TO THE ACADEMY AT THE AUTUMN MEETING, 1932 JESSE WALTER FEWKES 1850-1930 Jesse Walter Fewkes was born at Newton, Massachusetts, November 14, 1850, son of Jesse and Susan Emeline (Jewett) Fewkes. Both his parents were born at Ipswich, Massachu- setts. His mother's ancestry traced to the close of the 17th century in America. The primary educational opportunities of the period were given the boy with the long view that he should have an advanced education. The resources of the intellectual environment of Jesse Walter Fewkes at the period of 1850 were particularly rich in men and reasonably so as to material agencies. His family means, limited to the income of his father as a craftsman, were bud- geted unalterably as to the item of education, reflecting the early American belief in this essential feature. Thus the youth, Jesse, entered into the ways of learning through the primary schools and grades locally organized. There is no data giving a glimpse at his progress and capabili- ties in this formative period, only that a clergyman became in- terested in his education. Through this interest Fewkes was prepared for Harvard, and at 21 he entered the college with- out conditions. His course in the school may be marked by two periods, in which he essayed to find his particular bent that would develop into a life work. In the branch of physics we find him leaning toward the advancing field of electrical science under that de- partment at Harvard.

Harrington. An ethnologist and linguist with the Bureau of American Ethnology from 1915 to 1945, Harrington amassed over two hundred cubic feet of field notes and other material relating to Indians of all parts of the United States. He is best remembered for his work among California tribes. His material is difficult to describe briefly, for it ranges from verb paradigms to copies of several versions of Boscana's Chinigchinich, and the nature and quantity of data vary considerably from tribe to tribe. Many researchers have marveled at Harrington's dedicated efforts to record as much as he could of fading cultures, but they have often been especially delighted by stray facts contained in faithfully recorded digressions of his own or his informants.

"We contacted Smithsonian": The Wetherills at Mesa Verde DAVID HARRELL Nearly one hundred years after their involvement with what is now Mesa Verde National Park, the Wetherill family of Mancos, Colorado, remains the subject of disagreement, if not controversy. Praised by supporters as sensitive pioneers in southwestern archaeology but con­ demned by detractors as mercenary, shortsighted pothunters-even vandals-the Wetherills enjoy, or perhaps endure, an ambiguous fame. Despite this ambiguity, however, a number of complimentary tes­ timonials to the family's work have endured: testimonials both ar­ chaeological and literary. Indicative of the former are the number of artifacts obtained by the Wetherills and still on display in various mu­ seums, as well as the official acceptance of the name "Wetherill" for one of the mesas in the national park.! Of particular interest here, David Harrell is a doctoral candidate in the English Department in the University of New Mexico. He is co-editor of an anthology of sixteenth- and seventeenth-century European exploration narratives to be published by the University of New Mexico Press.

  • The World of the Kachina
    Study Guide and Exhibit Companion to The World of the Kachina Schingoethe Center for Native American Cultures at Aurora University January 2003 ©2003 Aurora University Types of Kachinas Kachinas are not all equal. Many different styles exist and provide different types of examples and guidance for the tribe. Each has a particular set of characteristics, and a distinctive personality. When impersonated, a costume, song style, and set of body movements are both repeated and unique. Most Kachinas are considered benevolent friends, although some are clowns and still others punish wayward Hopi people. The major Kachina types are: Chiefs: Those who take part in nine-day ceremonies. Runners: Those who race with the men during spring dances. Clowns: Those who offer comic relief during the dances. Guards: Those who protect Kachinas and punish the unruly clowns. Ogres: Monster types who punish the wayward. General styles: Animals, plants and other natural forms living and non-liv- ing. 2 Chief Kachinas Chief Kachinas are the most clearly defined group of spirits. A Chief Kachina is a supernatural being that is affiliated solely with a particular clan or related clans. Only a specific person within the kinship clan can imperson- ate the Chief Kachina. Chiefs usually appear during the important nine-day ceremonies and never in common plaza dances. The masks and costumes used to personify these Kachinas can be refurbished from time to time, but never changed or replaced. They are considered very sacred and are en- trusted only to the matriarch of the clan. The term Chief Kachina refers to the fact that these Kachinas are the most important, not that they are leaders.

  • Sound Recordings DAVID NOVAK University of California, Santa Barbara, United States
    Trim Size: 170mm x 244mm Callan wbiea1336.tex V1 - 09/16/2017 3:01 P.M. Page 1 ❦ Sound Recordings DAVID NOVAK University of California, Santa Barbara, United States Sound recordings have played an important role in anthropological research, both as tools of feldwork and data collection and as objects and contexts of ethnographic work on music, language, and cultural mediations of technology and environment. Te pro- cess of sound recording introduced new techniques and materials that revolutionized anthropological studies of language, music, and culture, while, as objects of techno- logical production and consumption, their media circulations have been analyzed as intrinsic to modern cultural formation and global social imaginaries. Te emergence of anthropology as a scholarly discipline coincided with the develop- ment of mechanical technologies for the preservation and reproduction of sound, fol- lowing soon afer the invention of the Edison cylinder phonograph in 1877. Te phono- graph made it possible for early ethnographers to capture and analyze the sounds of speech and ritual performance in Native America, beginning with the Passamaquoddy and Zuni songs and stories recorded in 1890 on wax cylinders by Jesse Walter Fewkes, and soon afer by Frances Densmore and Alice Cunningham Fletcher. While oral histo- rians, linguists, and musicologists regularly used the phonograph to collect and analyze the texts of threatened languages and musics in a preservationist mode, they did not typically preserve sound recordings themselves; in stark contrast to the archival stan- ❦ dards that would emerge later, most of them destroyed or reused cylinders immediately ❦ afer having transcribed their contents. Nonetheless, sound-recording technologies quickly became embedded in the iconography of feld collection that characterized early salvage anthropology.
