- FOREWORD
-
-
-The autobiographical information about Mr. Clark Field, which appears at
-the end of this brochure, briefly tells the inspiring story of well over
-four decades of dedication to—and sincere belief in—the American Indian
-as a creative artist. The results of these many years of collecting
-Indian baskets (and pottery) are on permanent display at Philbrook Art
-Center, in the Clark Field Collection; in addition, many other specimens
-are in storage and available to the scholar in the study collection.
-This brochure is not intended as a catalogue of all of the baskets in
-the Clark Field Collection, which includes more than a thousand
-specimens. Rather, it serves as an introduction to Indian basketry and
-tells the story of how baskets were made and used. About 90 of the more
-important baskets are illustrated, including the most famous American
-Indian basket, woven by Dotsolalee reproduced in color on the cover.
-
-Mr. Field has combined his enthusiasm for the art of Indian basketry
-with a high degree of scientific scholarship. He has kept careful
-records, which will become increasingly valuable as old specimens become
-even more rare and this Indian skill gradually dies out in this modern
-world. His daughter, Dorothy Field Maxwell, has assisted Mr. and Mrs.
-Field in their collection and with the preparation of this brochure.
-Mrs. Jeanne Snodgrass, Curator of Indian Art at Philbrook, has also
-assisted with the brochure in an editorial capacity.
-
-Mr. Field has performed an invaluable service to humanity in his long
-dedication to the preservation of this most important facet of the
-original Americans, and Philbrook Art Center will be, for countless
-generations, a mecca for those who wish to enjoy this fascinating
-utilitarian, yet esthetically meaningful art form.

- BASKETRY
-
-
-The need for food containers in early human communities led to the
-“invention” of basketry. The first baskets may have been made of animal
-skin or twigs; but soon evolved into the use of more suitable materials
-such as vegetable fibres. Because of the organic materials used in
-making baskets, most of the earliest examples have been lost through
-decay. A few examples have been preserved but only in areas of extremely
-dry climate, such as in Egypt, in Chile and Peru in South America, and
-in the southwestern United States. Radiocarbon tests of woven artifacts
-establish the existence and the use of baskets in Nevada, Utah and
-Oregon as early as 9000 to 700 B.C., and that Egyptians of the
-pre-dynastic period (c. 5000 B.C.) used baskets. Early literary sources,
-such as the Bible, mention baskets and other woven articles such as the
-“ark of bulrushes” in which the infant Moses was hidden (Exod. 2: 3,
-53); baskets were used to bring the tithes to the temple, and Matthew
-talked of “twelve baskets full.” (Matt. 14: 20.)
-
-In the study of American Indian baskets there are three major factors to
-be considered: the first is the tribe which produced the basket; the
-second is the language, since inter-marriage among tribes produced
-varying cultures; the third factor is the weave of the basket itself.
-For example, the five major weaves used by American Indians are: Coil,
-Twine, Twill, Wicker and Imbricated. To the novice there is the obvious
-difference in shape, color and texture of a collection of Indian baskets
-viewed in a museum. To the collector there is the hint of the whole
-pattern of life of the Indians who produced the basket.
-
-The materials used in any particular basket reflect the locale of the
-tribe which produced it, for the Indian used materials that were at
-hand. In the case of the _Cherokees_, a native variety of red honey
-suckle produced runners that were used by that tribe in Virginia in a
-wicker-type weave. In North Carolina, the same tribe utilized the
-Japanese honeysuckle, while in Oklahoma the tribe used buckbrush
-runners. In Arizona, the _Pimas_ wove split willow twigs and the black
-Martyna or “Devil’s Claw” of their desert lands.
-
-It is the Indian woman, not the man, who makes baskets (except for few
-instances, i.e., the _Papago_ carrying basket). They are made either for
-utilitarian use or for ceremonial use. Basket designs are not taught to
-the craftsman nor are they copied from a pattern book. They are created
-by the individual weaver who is an artist of great ability. The
-artist-craftsman must first develop a manner of weaving that will form a
-shape adequate for the basket’s final use. She must then find suitable
-materials in her area for this weaving project. This step completed, she
-mentally creates a decorative design and invents a method of weaving it
-into the basket.
-
-It is known that all North American Indian tribes, at some time in their
-history, made and used baskets. However, the finest and most decorative
-baskets were made about the middle of the 19th century, in the
-Northwest, down the Pacific Coast states and into the Southwest through
-Arizona and New Mexico.
-
-In 1935 there were more than five hundred _Pima_ Indians making baskets
-for their own use. Now there are less than six good weavers on that
-reservation. Today _Papago_ Indians make some baskets for tourist trade,
-but not nearly as many as they made a few years ago. The _Hopi_ Indians
-bring a few baskets to market places, but there are fewer and fewer each
-year. For example: at the 1964 Inter-Tribal Indian Ceremonials, Gallup,
-New Mexico, there were forty classifications in the basketry
-competition—baskets were submitted to only twenty-seven classifications.
-There are some basket weavers among other tribes but for the most part,
-few tribes today may be called “basket makers.”
-
-The influence of other culture groups upon the craft of basket weaving
-is so great that each year fewer baskets are produced by the regular
-weavers. The Indian women have learned that they can secure mass
-produced articles as a substitute for baskets. Only two percent of the
-types of baskets included in this collection are now being made. It is
-quite probable that by the year 2000 there will be NO Indian baskets
-being woven.
-
-
-
-
- EARLY BASKETRY
-
-
- _Ozark Mountains of Arkansas_
-
-Very few people are aware that baskets were made by the Ozark “Bluff
-Dwellers.” A special exhibit in the University of Arkansas Museum,
-Fayetteville, contains a small basket filled with grasshoppers. The
-University Museum points out that as long ago as the year 1 A.D.,
-baskets were being made by Indians in the Ozark Area. This provides
-further evidence of the Indian’s early inhabitance of this country.
-
-
-
-
- BASKETS WHICH ARE NO LONGER MADE—AND WHY
-
-
-Case No. 5:
-
-These tightly woven baskets made by _Thlinkits_ of Alaska, were woven
-from spruce tree roots which were split by hand. The baskets were used
-to hold boiling water for clam cooking. The fibers swelled to such an
-extent that water could be retained in the basket for as long as five
-hours. Today this tribe purchases a kettle or bucket for their boiling
-needs.
- (See Plate 9c)
-
-Case No. 7:
-
-These large _Apache_ baskets used for storing grain, were made about
-1874. It required as long as three months to produce this type of
-specimen and since 1914 very few have been made. The twenty-five cent
-burlap sack has replaced it.
- (See Plate 6c)
-
-Case No. 9:
-
-This _Cochiti_ bird cage, made of a yucca plant, has been replaced by
-metal bird cages.
-
-
-
-
- IDEAS COPIED FROM INDIAN BASKETS
-
-
-The Anglo appropriated many Indian basket ideas for his own use:
-
-The _Penobscot_ colander was found in use as such among the people of
-this Maine tribe and was made about 1841. It is quite possible that we
-took this as a pattern for our own metal colanders.
- (See Plate 10a)
-
-It is also quite possible that we copied the pattern of the _Catawba_,
-North Carolina, fish trap for our own minnow trap.
- (See Plate 4a)
-
-
-
-
- BASKETS OF UNIQUE DESIGNS AND USES
-
-
-The average weaver does not use more than five or six figures in a
-design.
-
-Case No. 3: _Mission_ of California—a quail and flying duck design.
- (See Plate 11b)
-
-Case No. 3: _Shoshone_ (Panamint), Death Valley California—Oriole design
-food bowl.
- (See Plate 11c)
-
-Case No. 9: _Choctaw_ of Oklahoma—Wall Pocket.
- (See Plate 16c)
-
-Case No. 9: _Niantic_ of Connecticut—clothes rinsing basket.
- (See Plate 19d)
-
-Case No. 10: _Chitimacha_ of Louisiana—an alligator intestine design.
- (See Plate 15c)
-
-Case No. 11: _Shoshone_ (Panamint), Death Valley, California—seventy
-figures in the design; including the American Eagle, crow in a tree,
-rocky mountain sheep, and lizard tracks in the sand.
- (See Plate 6b)
-
-Case No. 11: _Quinault_ of Washington—Clam gathering basket.
- (See Plate 14b)
-
-Case No. 12: _Cahuilla_ of California—food platter rattlesnake design.
- (See Plate 12a)
-
-Case No. 12: _Chemehueve_ of Arizona—a “stink bug” design.
- (See Plate 12c)
-
-Case No. 12: _Yavapai_ Apache of Arizona—a tarantula design.
- (See Plate 12d)
-
-Case No. 13: _Paiute_ of Nevada—porridge bowl.
- (See Plate 10b)
-
-Case No. 13: _Hoopa_ of California—grinding tray and stone.
- (See Plate 10d)
-
-
-
-
- THE VANISHING INDIAN?
-
-
-The vanishing Indian? He is not vanishing! In 1890, the Indian
-population in North America numbered about one quarter million and in
-1963, records reveal there are over one million Indians.
-
-
-
-
- SYMBOLIC DESIGNS?
-
-
-There is the mistaken idea that one tribe “understands” the designs of
-another tribe and that there is symbolism, or meaning, to every design.
-Actually, _most_ designs are purely decorative renderings and they have
-no more symbolism for the Indian than a fabric design has for the
-general public.
-
-The identification of a basket is made not through the interpretation of
-a “mysterious meaning” of the design but generally from the design motif
-itself. For instance, baskets made by tribes of southern California are
-distinguishable to the trained eye since they tend to be of a
-particularly heavy, bold and angular style. They seldom have _mysterious
-meanings_!
- (See Plate 12b)
-
-
-
-
- BASKETRY
-
-
- _Western Apache_—Arizona and New Mexico
-
-Case No. 13:
-
-At one time it was not difficult to identify _Apache_ Basketry by tribal
-name, such as: _San Carlos_, _Chiricahua_, _Tonto_, and _Yavapai_. Today
-it is not possible to identify baskets as belonging to a particular
-_Apache_ tribe.
-
-During the nineteenth century these southwest tribes waged continual
-warfare with the Anglos and Spaniards who had settled in the area.
-Attempts were made by the United States government to establish
-treaties. However, newly written treaties were broken before the ink
-dried! About 1880, the army rounded up all the Apaches of Arizona and
-New Mexico and took them as prisoners to the _San Carlos Reservation_.
-There they remained confined for several years. During this period of
-confinement the basket weavers copied designs and weaving techniques
-from one another.
-
-When the tribes were released and allowed to return to their respective
-reservations the “new” styles of basketry were continued. As a result of
-this situation, today we find baskets woven by these tribes to be so
-similar in appearance that definite tribal affiliation cannot be
-determined. They are therefore classified only as _Western Apache_
-baskets.
- (See Plate 13a)
-
-
-
-
- DATSOLALEE
- 1918
- _Washoe_—Western Nevada
-
-
-Case No. 3:
-
-This basket was made by _Dabuda_ (Young Willow). She was later given the
-nick-name of _Datsolalee_ (Broad in the Hips) and is best known by this
-name since later in life she tipped the scales at 350 pounds.
-
-On March 26, 1917, _Datsolalee_ started weaving this specimen which is
-fifty-two inches in circumference and has more than 100,000 stitches
-(more than thirty to the inch). Eleven months later, on February 16,
-1918, she completed this basket which is her greatest masterpiece.
-Although made for ceremonial use, the shape is that of a food bowl. The
-white background is made of peeled twig from the Mountain Willow; the
-black color is the root of a Bracken, or giant fern; the reddish-brown
-is bark from the Nevada Redbud. To her the design meant: _We assemble to
-discuss the happy lives of our ancestors._ Shortly after the completion
-of this basket the weaver lost her eyesight. She died at the age of 95
-in 1926.
-
-In 1958 the U. S. Indian Arts and Crafts Board, Department of the
-Interior, Washington, D.C., rated this basket as probably the finest
-specimen of basketry ever produced.
-
-During her lifetime, _Datsolalee_ made only forty-six large scale
-baskets. During the summer months she could often be found at the resort
-area of Lake Tahoe, California, weaving miniature basketry which she
-sold to tourists for small sums. In 1914, Mrs. Henrietta K. Burton, from
-the Bureau of Indian Affairs in Washington, D.C., visited the artist’s
-home in Carson City, Nevada. Mrs. Burton made numerous photographs of
-_Datsolalee_ and her baskets for use in federal publications which dealt
-with Indian basketry. Since that time these photos have appeared in many
-other basketry publications.
-
-Due to the artist’s reputation and ability, as well as the artistry and
-craftsmanship of this specimen it is valued at $2000. It is doubtful
-such a basket could ever again be produced—no weaver today shows ability
-such as that of _Datsolalee_. Her baskets are sought by collectors
-throughout the world.
-
-In 1914, G. A. Steiner, of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, purchased the
-finest basket the artist had produced up to that time. It is forty-nine
-inches in circumference and has more than eighty thousand stitches. It
-was purchased for $1950, and added to the Carnegie Library Collection in
-Pittsburgh (this was the highest price ever paid for a single Indian
-basket).
-
-Philbrook’s _Datsolalee_ basket has received international recognition.
-It may be seen, in color, in _Indian Art in America_, by Frederick J.
-Dockstader (New York Graphic Society, 1960) and in the magazine
-_America_ (No. 67) which was distributed by the U. S. Information Agency
-and printed in Russian.

- UTILITARIAN—HISTORICAL
- c. 1835
- _Pennacook_—Northern Massachusetts
-
-
-Case No. 4:
-
-This basket is made of ash splints and is white on the interior. The
-exterior is decorated with designs painted in native dyes using a
-swabbing stick which has been pounded at one end to form a brush.
-
-This earliest known type of painted-on decoration ceased about 1870. An
-approximate dating for this specimen can be established from an April 2,
-1835, copy of the _Boston Daily Courier_, which lines the basket lid.
- (See Plate 2d)
-
-
-
-
- UTILITARIAN—HISTORICAL
- _Wampanoag_—Massachusetts
-
-
-Case No. 4:
-
-This very plain basket, constructed of brown ash splints, was
-authenticated by the late Frank G. Speck, internationally known
-University of Pennsylvania anthropologist, as being _Wampanoag_.
-
-The _Wampanoags_, now extinct, were a branch of the Massachusetts
-_Algonquins_.
-
-This specimen was made by a direct descendant of King _Massasoit_, the
-Indian chief who met the Puritans at their Plymouth Rock landing in
-1621. Massasoit was the father of King Phillip, for whom the King
-Phillip’s Indian Wars of 1676, were named.
- (See Plate 2c)

-
-
-
- CEREMONIAL WINE BASKET
- c. 1837
- _Papago_—Arizona
-
-
-Case No. 4:
-
-Annually, in July when the fruit of the Saguaro Cactus is ripe, the
-_Papagos_ hold their _Nahwehteete_ (wine drinking) ceremony. The purpose
-of this ceremony is to offer a prayer of supplication to bring rain.
-Wine, made from the Saguaro (called _Tizwin_) is passed around in this
-basket and served from a gourd dipper.
-
-Between dances the basket is used for storing the sacred ceremonial
-paraphernalia used in the dance. The “Keeper of the Sacred Basket”
-seldom ever parts with the basket. Therefore, not many can be found in
-public or private collections.
- (See Plate 17b)
-
-
-
-
- MORTUARY
- _Pomo_—Northern California
-
-
-Case No. 3:
-
-The _Pomo_ Indians are the only tribe known to have completely and fully
-decorated baskets with feathers. These baskets were considered to be the
-tribe’s highest artistic achievement. It was a great honor to the memory
-of a deceased person when this type of basket, especially made for such
-an occasion, was placed on his body at the cremation ceremony. It may be
-said that the sacrifice of these baskets was the tribe’s most profound
-means of showing respect at the time of cremation.
-
-The custom of making and using these baskets no longer prevails. Few
-people today know the art, and even fewer people are willing to devote
-the nearly two years to make one feathered basket.
-
-At the time this ceremony was active in the _Pomo_ culture, each family
-had several such baskets in reserve. It must therefore be assumed that
-the women of the tribe devoted a great deal of their time producing
-these symbols to honor the dead.
-
-It is interesting to compare cultures: The _Pomo_ Indian sacrificed a
-work of art which took about two years to make—today’s Anglo society
-calls the florist and orders a “ten dollar spray” of flowers. This
-basket on the collector’s market is valued at about $300.
- (See Plate 18c & 18d)
-
-
-
-
- JUMPING DANCE
- _Hoopa_—California
-
-
-Case No. 4:
-
-The “Jumping Dance Basket” receives its name from a ceremony in which
-the participants perform with jumping dance motions. This ceremony is a
-prayer of supplication for the return of the soil’s fertility. It is
-held in the spring of the year on land that has ceased to bear crops.
-
-Some people question these customs, and actually call them mere “Indian
-superstitions.” It is revealing to note, however, that less than a
-century ago Anglos believed that the childhood disease, rickets, could
-be cured by splitting an ash tree at dawn, and passing the stricken
-child head-first through the opening in the tree.
-
-This set of three baskets, handed down from generation to generation,
-was secured from a medicine man. The baskets were made prior to 1860 and
-no one living today seems to know how to weave them. As a result, the
-baskets are quite rare, and it is doubtful if another such set could be
-obtained.
- (See Plate 18a)
-
-
-
-
- MOURNING BOWL
- c. 1870
- _Menominee_—Wisconsin
-
-
-Case No. 4:
-
-This rare, small birch bark pail is called a “Mourning Bowl.” It is used
-during the _Feast of the Dead_, a sacred ceremony which is held one year
-after burial to honor the deceased. During the Ceremony of the Mourning
-Bowl, food is placed in the bowl and passed to the mourners. After the
-ceremony, the basket containing food is giving a final blessing and is
-placed on the grave of the deceased.
- (See Plate 17d)

-
- INITIATION CEREMONY
- _Hopi_—Arizona
-
-
-Case No. 4:
-
-The _Soyal_ (Prayer Offering Ceremony) of the religious organization,
-_Kwan Kwan Tu_ (One Horn Fraternity), is part of a boy’s initiation
-ceremony at puberty. The ceremony is held mainly in the _Kiva_
-(underground ceremonial chamber), from December through April. Here the
-novice meets his godfather for the first time.
-
-The design of the large plaque (at top of plate) represents a sand
-painting which is executed on the floor before the _Kiva_ altar. The
-novice wears only a breechcloth as his godfather instructs him to kneel
-on the painting and rubs him with sacred corn meal, which has been
-blessed by the _Cacique_ or religious leader. The significance of this
-ritual is that the novice’s sins and evil thoughts are washed away. The
-corn meal is then taken outside and cast to the winds, thus purifying
-the boy. (Center of plate 20: basket bowl with corn meal.)
-
-The wicker basket (at bottom of plate 20) is used in carrying bean
-sprouts and young corn during the “February Twelve Day” _Kiva_ ceremony.
-The sprouts and corn, signifying new life for the initiated, are eaten
-by him as he takes the numerous vows of faith.
-
-The two small trays (on either side of the top-center tray) represent
-the badges, which are given to the newly initiated boy.
- (See Plate 20)
-
-
-
-
- WEDDING BASKET
- _Navajo_—Arizona
-
-
-Case No. 4:
-
-The origin of the _Navajo_ basket with the “Spider Woman’s Cross” design
-dates back hundreds of years. It is no longer made. As a substitute for
-their own basket during marriage ceremonies, the _Navajo_ people often
-use a _Paiute_ basket of the type shown in the upper right of the case.
- (See Plate 19b)
-
-The Paiute basket is illustrated on Plate 19c.
-
-
-
-
- WEDDING PLAQUE
- _Hopi_—Arizona
-
-
-Case No. 4:
-
-This plaque is made of yucca. The green color is unbleached yucca, the
-white is bleached yucca and the black color is yucca which has been dyed
-by using black sunflower seeds.
-
-The plaque is called _Kochaiinpi_ (White Meal Plaque), and is woven by a
-prospective bride for use in the wedding procession. It is hung in the
-newly married couple’s home afterwards, partly to commemorate the
-occasion.
-
-After the wedding the single-file procession proceeds to the new home
-which has recently been built by the groom. This procession is led by
-the bride’s mother who carries on her head a large pottery bowl filled
-with baked beans. The bride follows next. With both hands she carries a
-large basket tray stacked with the _piki_ bread (a thin wafer of
-bread—almost like parchment) which she has made from blue corn meal
-mixed with sweetened siovi ashes and cooked on a hot stone. Next in line
-are four male relatives of the bridegroom, each holding a corner of a
-blanket on which rests the “White Meal Plaque.” The plaque filled and
-running over with the white meal which the bride had ground earlier.
-Thus, the young couple start their life together with an ample quantity
-of food.
-
-The spiritual connotation of the basket is this: It is believed that at
-the time of death an individual’s soul stands on the brink of the
-_Maski_ (or after world; in this case literally the Grand Canyon). The
-soul steps onto the “White Meal Plaque,” gently soars over the abyss,
-and safely descends to the bottom. Thus the soul departs to the abiding
-place of the dead and forever rests in peace.
- (See Plate 19a)
-
-
-
-
- WEDDING
- c. 1937
- _Pomo_—California
-
-
-Case No. 4:
-
-This coiled basket is covered with the feathers of about two hundred
-quail. The feathers which protrude from the basket, are from the head of
-the Valley Quail, or Gambel’s Quail. The dark blue feathers are taken
-from different quails. The decorative disk-like beads are fashioned in
-the following manner: the shells are broken into small pieces and then
-drilled with a pump drill. They are then strung on a cord and the strand
-is then rubbed on a wet sandstone until the beads are round and uniform
-in size.
-
-This type of basket was made by the bride’s mother and is considered to
-be the finest example of basketry produced by _Pomo_ Indians. The
-_Chimopika_ (Dowry Basket) is presented to the bridegroom, by the
-weaver, at the wedding ceremony. Sweetmeats, such as cakes of sugar from
-sugar sap trees, are placed in the basket and passed around to the
-guests.
-
-The married couple retains this sacred memento of the marriage ceremony
-as long as they both live, but if either of the couple dies the basket
-is sacrificed in the cremation ceremony.
-
-This basket was used in ceremonies prior to about 1889. They are no
-longer made or used. This basket was obtained in 1937 from an Indian
-Agent who at that date stated he had seen only six baskets of this type
-on the reservation since 1907.
- (See Plate 18b)

- CEREMONIAL—CARRYING
- 1905
- _White Mountain Apache_—White River, Arizona
-
-
-Case No. 4:
-
-This splendid specimen is woven mainly of lemon bush. The white area is
-yucca plant and the black area is “Devil’s Claw,” or Martyna.
-
-This basket was made by a _White Mountain Apache_ for use in the “Coming
-Out Dance.”
-
-When an Indian Girl reaches the marriageable age, a “Coming Out Dance”
-is given in her honor. The girl’s relatives and friends are invited to
-attend this important traditional ceremony. Drummers provide music as
-the girl and her sponsor (usually her aunt) dance on a rug or on the
-skin of an animal such as the bear or buffalo. These ceremonial baskets
-are placed for the guests to view—the more guests, the more baskets
-required. Each basket is filled with a mixture of sweetmeats, fruits and
-other foods and is placed on a slope in order to make the contents
-plainly visible to the guests.
-
-After the ceremony the baskets are passed among the guests for the
-contents to be enjoyed. They are then hung inside the house by the two
-handles, until the next “Coming Out Dance.”
- (See Plate 17c)

- STORAGE
- c. 1900
- _Pima_—Arizona
-
-
-Case No. 10:
-
-This basket was used for storing mesquite beans after they had been
-hulled. It is doubtful if this type of basket has been made since 1900.
- (See Plate 8a)

- SEED CONTAINER
- c. 300 A.D.
- _Pueblo II_—Colorado
-
-
-Case No. 4:
-
-Evidence of the importance of basketry among the southwestern peoples of
-the United States in the first few centuries of our era lies in the fact
-that these peoples and their culture are referred to as the “Basket
-Makers.”
-
-This basket dates back to approximately 300 A.D., about 1600 years ago.
-It was used as a seed container to store squash and pumpkin seeds until
-the next planting season. It was found in the cliff dwellings of the San
-Juan River basin near Mesa Verde, Colorado.
- (See Plate 7b)
-
-
-
-
- STORAGE
- c. 1875
- _Tonto Apache and
- White Mountain Apache_—Southeast Arizona
-
-
-Case No. 7:
-
-This unusually large specimen is almost three feet tall. Since about
-1914, very few, if any, as large as this have been made. An Indian woman
-would have to devote three to four months to the weaving of a basket of
-this size. Today she can purchase a gunny sack from the nearest trading
-post for twenty five cents and store the same amount of grain with much
-less effort.
-
-This basket, valued at $750.00 on the collector’s market today, is a
-splendid illustration of a dying art. The forthcoming Indian generation
-will not be concerned with the making of baskets for daily use. The
-beautiful weaving techniques and colorful designs will become a thing of
-the past.
-
-Also, in this show case, is a fine 1890 basket specimen; a _Tonto
-Apache_ storage basket from the Verde River area below Flagstaff,
-Arizona.
- (See Plate 6c & 17c)
-
-
-
-
- HOUSEHOLD
- _Chitimacha_—Louisiana
-
-
-Case No. 10:
-
-The unusual decorative design of this basket is commonly referred to as
-“alligator intestines.” This design motif has been used as far back as
-history records, and serves as an excellent example of the weaver’s
-skill.
- (See Plate 15c)
-
-For other examples of household baskets see:

-
-
-
- FOOD BOWL
- _Hopi—Shongopovi_, 2nd Mesa—Arizona
-
-
-Case No. 11:
-
-This food bowl is one of the finest specimens of decorative symbolism
-ever produced in _Hopi_ basketry.
-
-The decorations represent the knobhead (or Mudhead) Clown _Kachina_
-called _Koyemsi_, and the Crow Wing Mother (the mother of all
-_Kachinas_). The four ears of corn, each in a different color, represent
-the four seasons of the year.
-
-Made by _Lula Joshongeva_, it received several awards at the 1956
-Inter-Tribal Indian Ceremonials, in Gallup, New Mexico. Further honor
-was bestowed the basket by a Navajo medicine man’s special blessing at a
-“Blessing Ceremony.”

- BERRY GATHERING
- _Choctaw_—Mississippi
-
-
-Case No. 4:
-
-The basket with a tall handle was made in 1817, fourteen years after the
-Louisiana Purchase. _The basket with a shorter handle is a contemporary
-specimen._
-
-The 1817 specimen is of considerable historical significance since it
-was brought to Oklahoma sometime between 1838 and 1842, at the time the
-Federal Government removed the Choctaw tribe from Mississippi to Indian
-Territory (Oklahoma).

- WATER BOTTLE
- _Chiricahua_ and _Havasupai_—New Mexico and Arizona
-
-
-Above door of entrance to Basket Gallery:
-
-These woven specimens are covered with gum from the Pinon Pine and
-subsequently baked over an open fire until they become as hard as
-shellac. This coating makes the bottles watertight.
-
-Several Arizona tribes prefer this type of water bottle to any they can
-procure from the Anglo; they are, therefore, still used extensively in
-this area.

- CARRYING (or Burden)
-
-
-Cases No. 1, 7, 8, 11 and Overhead—_Various Tribes_.
-
-This type of basket was used by the _Paiutes_ of Nevada and the
-_Gabrielenos_ and _Maidus_ of California for carrying acorns; by the
-_Quileutes_ of Washington for carrying salmon; by the _Hopis_ of Arizona
-for carrying peaches and corn, and by the _Zunis_ of New Mexico for
-carrying peaches.
- (See Plates 14c & 14d)
-
-Case No. 1. Examples of burden baskets used by the _Cherokees_ of the
- Smokey Mountains of North Carolina.
-
-Case No. 7 and 8: Examples of baskets used by the _Karocs_ of
- California, showing the “Tump-line” basket with head band
- attached.
- (See Plate 13c)

- (See Plate 9a)
-
-
-
-
- CARRYING
- _Cahuilla_ or _Mission_—California
-
-
-Case No. 13:
-
-This basket was used to carry grasshoppers to the brush and grass
-_Wickiup_ where they were roasted on a long stick over a flame in
-preparation for eating.
-
-There is nothing too unusual about mankind eating insects: The _Holy
-Bible_ tells of the children of Israel—forty years in the wilderness—in
-the land of Canaan, eating locusts, as did John The Baptist while
-preaching in the wilderness. Today specialty stores retail grasshoppers,
-fried worms, bees and ants—many of which are chocolate coated!
- (See Plate 14a)
-
-
-
-
- GRASSHOPPER STEWING
- _Paiute_—Nevada
-
-
-Case No. 13:
-
-This basket was made for cooking grasshoppers. After the grasshoppers
-were placed in the basket the top was tied with a buckskin thong and
-submerged in boiling water. The basket was removed from the water when
-the grasshoppers were sufficiently cooked and ready to be eaten.
- (See Plate 10c)
-
-
-
-
- WATER TIGHT
- c. 1875
- _Thlinkit_—Alaska
-
-
-Case No. 5:
-
-This water-tight boiling basket is made of spruce roots which have been
-finely split by hand. It is woven as tightly as commercially woven
-canvas water bags. These baskets are no longer made for cooking because
-metal containers are readily available.
-
-The design motif of this unusually fine specimen is constructed of
-mountain grass, commonly called Squaw Grass. The grass is soaked in bog
-mud all winter, giving it the black color. The copper color is obtained
-by boiling the grass with copper ore, and the white is the same grass,
-sun bleached.
- (See Plate 9c)
-
-
-
-
- CARRYING BASKET
- c. 1890
- _Papago_—Arizona
-
-
-Case No. 4:
-
-This carrying, or burden, basket, referred to by _Papagos_ as _Kiaha_,
-is made of stems from the Cereus Giganteus Cactus and the twine from
-leaves of the Maguey plant. The Maguey plant played a major role in
-_Papago_ life due to the fact that food, rope, twine, varnish, needles,
-and liquor were obtained from it.
-
-The _Papagos_ taught the Spaniards to make liquors from the juice of the
-Maguey plant more than four hundred years ago. The liquor is still made
-today in Mexico.
-
-In 1540, the Spaniards, led by Coronado, arrived in the Southwest and
-found this basket being used in daily life. Such items as Mesquite
-beans, cactus, wood, water jars and corn were carried in this basket,
-which is equipped with a head band and rests on the shoulders. After the
-Spaniards introduced horses and horses became plentiful, the men ceased
-to have need for (or to make) this basket.
-
-It is interesting to note that the weaving technique of this (one of the
-few baskets made by men) may be called the American counterpart of
-_Belgian Point Lace_.
- (See Plate 13d)
-
-
-
-
- ROASTING TRAYS
- c. 1890
- _Yurok_—California
- _Modoc_—Oregon
-
-
-Case No. 12:
-
-These three trays are used for roasting shelled nuts such as hazel nuts
-and pinon nuts. The nuts are placed on the tray along with red-hot wood
-coals. A revolving motion is applied to the tray and the coals are
-rolled so deftly that they do not burn the tray.
- (See Plate 9d)

-
-
-
- CORN HUSK (or “Sally”) BAGS
- c. 1850
- _Umatilla_—Oregon
-
-
-Case No. 10:
-
-This specimen was made of a hemp foundation and false embroidery of
-twisted corn husks. Vegetable dyes were used.
-
-The name “Sally Bag” goes back to an older use of the term sally,
-meaning “to go forth,” “to sally forth,” i.e. to travel.
-
-The bags were used as travel bags and were tied to the back of the
-cantle of the saddle. They were known to have been in use at the time of
-the Lewis and Clark Expedition of 1805.

-
- EFFIGY—TRINKETS
- _Alibamu_ of Texas, formerly of Alabama
- _Papago_ of Arizona
-
-
-Case Nos. 2 and 13:
-
-These baskets are unique works of art. Each shows considerable
-creativity. The _Alibamu_ turkey basket made of pine cones and the
-_Papago_ owl made of Yucca plant are used as trinket baskets. In more
-recent years, additional types have been made in the form of birds,
-frogs, turtles, alligators, armadillos, etc. These baskets have proven
-quite popular and have therefore become an asset to the economy of the
-craftsman.
- (See Plates 5c & 5d)
-
-
-
-
- IMBRICATED WEAVE
- _Yakima_—Toppenish, Washington
-
-
-Case No. 11:
-
-The Latin word _Imbrex_ means tile; imbricated means overlapping like
-tiles or a decoration resembling tiles. This basket is an excellent
-example of the imbricated weave.
-
-This basket was formerly used for cooking and is now used in berry
-picking. There are four different materials used in the construction:
-the foundation is coiled, split cedar roots; the white color is bleached
-mountain grass; the dark red is cherry tree bark; the brown is cedar
-bark.
- (See Plate 5a)
-
-
-
-
- BIRCHBARK
- Various Tribes
-
-
-Case No. 8:
-
-Many items are made from birch-bark by the Indians in areas where the
-birch tree grows in abundance. Like many other cultures, the Indian used
-objects for daily use which required the least effort to make.
-Birch-bark lends itself readily to easy construction.
-
-Shown here are many forms of birch-bark construction: boxes, buckets,
-creels, trays, etc.

-
- SQUASH BLOSSOM
- _Pima_—Arizona
-
-
-Case No. 7:
-
-The decorative motif of these baskets is actually thought of by the
-_Pima_ weaver as a “progressive design,” rather than that of a squash
-blossom. The design is executed in sequences of three to twelve petals,
-one of a sequence to each basket. Only two complete sets (ten baskets to
-a set) are known to exist. They are no longer made.
-
-These baskets were used for such things as winnowing grain and gathering
-fruit and vegetables.
- (See Plate 9b)

-
- PORCUPINE QUILL DECORATION
- c. 1903
- _Chippewa_—Minnesota
-
-
-Case No. 2:
-
-One of the finest examples of the Indian woman’s native creative arts is
-found in porcupine quill decoration. The artist formerly prepared her
-own dyes from berries, roots, barks, etc. Today, aniline dyes are used
-almost exclusively. Steps used in the preparation of quills for bark
-decoration are as follows:
-
- The artist usually divides the quills into four lengths and stores
- them in separate containers because they differ in length and
- thickness (one to four inches long and 1/16 to 3/32 inches thick). The
- quills are washed well in soap root before being dyed, and stored.
- When she is ready to use the quills she softens them in her mouth. The
- warmth and moisture are most effective and it is thought that the
- saliva contains some special property that makes them more pliable.
- She generally keeps a number of the quills of the same size and color
- in one cheek with the points protruding from her lips, pulling out a
- quill as it is needed. Small holes are punched in the bark with an awl
- and the quill is inserted in these holes. The ends are bent over on
- the back side of the bark to hold them in place. By using quills of
- the desired length to fit the decoration, it is not necessary to cut
- them. The quill swells and stiffens as it dries, making it even more
- secure.
-
-In most boxes, so decorated, a plain undecorated piece of bark is fitted
-on the inside (or back side) to hide the raw ends of the quills. Three
-to four thousand quills are required to cover a box the size of the one
-shown in Plate 1a. Vegetable dyes were used on the quills of this box
-and have not faded in more than fifty years.
- (See Plate 1a)

-
- MINIATURES
-
-
-Case No. 2:
-
-Indian women make these to show their skill in weaving. In similar
-fashion, the Anglo has engraved the _Lord’s Prayer_ on the head of a
-straight pin in order to illustrate his skill.
-
-The principal, and interesting difference is: the Anglo uses a
-magnifying glass and the Indian women do not.

-This basket and the basket from Maine are rare examples of the old
-Indian art of moose hair embroidery. A cluster of very fine hair grows
-from the withers of the wild moose and this hair, dyed in suitable
-colors, is used for the embroidery.
-
-The art of this type embroidery probably dates back to about 1714, at
-which time the natives used this method of decoration for their own
-buckskin clothing. It is believed that these people were taught the art
-at convents after the steel needle was introduced into this country from
-Europe in the eighteenth century. However, there is no proof of this
-theory.
-
-It is interesting to note other unique examples of decorative art by
-these people; i.e., the drilling of seed pearls the size of the head of
-a straight pin and in turn, sewing these pearls on cloth or fiber. With
-crude tools, they created rare and beautiful works of decorative art
-which would be difficult for us to duplicate with today’s precision
-tooling.
-
-After adopting Anglo-style clothing these Indians practiced moose hair
-embroidery art on trinkets such as these until it became almost extinct
-by 1890. Specimens such as these are rare even in museums.

-
- WHALEBONE (Baleen)
- _Eskimo_—Point Barrow, Alaska
-
-
-Case No. 3:
-
-The Baleen used in the weaving of this basket is found in the upper jaw
-of the Bowhead, or Alaskan Right Whale. This horny substance is pulled
-into various sized strips. While it is still fresh it is flexible and
-can be woven as easily as fiber. The same weaving technique used in
-making coiled baskets from grass roots is also used in the construction
-of this basket.
-
-An Alaskan trader is credited with having taught the _Eskimos_ to use
-Baleen as a weaving medium. The art was almost extinct until a few years
-ago when the U. S. Indian Arts and Crafts Board gave needed
-encouragement to the craftsmen.
-
-The Bowhead, or Right Whale, is not plentiful at Point Barrow; only two
-or three such whales are caught during a good year. Some years none are
-caught.
-
-Two factors are predominate in making this type of basketry scarce: 1)
-lack of Baleen, 2) the fifty hours necessary for a skillful craftsman to
-construct the specimen.
-
-The decorative ivory figure on the lid of the basket is made of walrus
-tusk.

- ALEUT ISLAND BASKETRY
- c. 1860 and c. 1939-1944
- _Attu_—Attu Island, Alaska
-
-
-Case No. 6:
-
-The baskets shown in display case no. 6, are the finest weave known to
-have been made in North America.
-
-Woven in about thirty days, the average size basket may have up to
-10,000 stitches to the square inch. The finest machine made cotton
-sheeting has 3600 stitches to the square inch.
-
-The dark toned baskets were made about 1860 and the lighter toned ones
-were made between 1939 and 1944.
-
-These specimens are made by the _Aleut_ Indian women of a beach grass
-(Wild Rye) which grows on Attu Island. The stems and blades are about
-the size of wheat straw, and the _Aleut_ women split them with their
-finger nails.
-
-In 1741, Russian explorers discovered and settled the Aleutian Islands.
-They later found that the native women were wrapping their dead with
-finely woven, narrow strips of grass fiber and placing the bodies in
-caves.
-
-Russians then encouraged the _Aleuts_ to weave baskets of this same
-product. In the normal course of events, the Russians influenced the use
-of silk and cotton thread decorations on the baskets.
-
-In 1948, Edward L. Keithan, curator of The State Museum of Alaska, made
-a field trip to the Aleutian Islands and found only three women still
-practicing this fine art of basketry. Today, there is no continuance of
-this art.
- (See Plates 1c & 1d)

-
- GAMBLING DEVICES
-
-
-Case No. 2:
-
-Illustrated here are several types of gambling devices used by North
-American Indians:
-
-_Pomos_ of California, used a mat on which they threw their counters.
- (See Plate 4b)
-
-_Seneca-Cayuga_ of New York, used a wooden bowl and six flat, polished
- peach seeds for their famous “Peach Seed Game.” This bowl was
- brought to Oklahoma about 1840.
- (See Plate 4c)
-
-_Cheyennes_ of Oklahoma, used a basket bowl with wooden counters.
-
-_Pawnees_ of Nebraska, used a basket tray. This is the only type of
- basketry known to have been made by them. This basket was made
- before they were removed to Oklahoma.
- (See Plate 4d)
-
-_Klamaths_ of Oregon, used a different gambling device in that it was
- more of a guessing game. The mat covered the hands of the
- operator. The two bones are held, one in each hand, and rotated.
- The bet was made on the turn of the selected bone. These counters
- were usually made from the foreleg of a deer or elk.
-
-The Mongolian culture is well known to have a strong interest in
-gambling games. Some anthropologists tell us that the North American
-Indians came to this country many years ago across the Bering Sea from
-Asia and that they are descendants of the Mongolians in that area.
-
-
-
-
- MANIOC PRESS
- _Carib_—Guatemala and Venezuela
-
-
-Case No. 13:
-
-Indians of Mexico, Central America, northern South America and the
-Caribbean Islands used this press to remove poison (Hydrocyanic Acid)
-from the Manioc root. This root is similar to the root used in the
-preparation of tapioca. The Indians process the root to make a flour
-which is used in a native bread. This type of press was in use by these
-people as early as 892 A.D. and in some areas is still being used today.
-
-To remove the poison from Manioc the root is pounded, then stuffed into
-the basket, causing it to expand in girth and to shorten in length. (The
-particular type of diagonal twill weave used in this basket press
-permits a girth expansion to twice its former size and a reduction in
-length of about one-half its original size.) The press is then submerged
-in water and soaked until thoroughly saturated. When it is removed from
-the water the press is hung by the loop end, usually on a branch. The
-foot or a weight is put on the closed end of the press and this creates
-a squeezing action which removes the poison from the root inside. At
-this point the press changes shape and becomes long and narrow again.
-This process is repeated several times to assure the removal of the
-poison.
- (See Plate 11a)
-
-
-
-
- BABY CRADLES
-
-
-Case No. 5:
-
-The art of making basket cradles is almost lost today. However, the
-wooden cradle is still made and used extensively by many tribes; this is
-especially so in the Pueblo tribes.
-
-The following illustrates the use of baby cradles by some basket making
-tribes: Hoopas, of California, used a sit-down type cradle—the baby is
-seated in, and tied to, the cradle; _Hopis_, of Arizona and _Frazier
-River_, of Washington, used the cradle for putting the baby to sleep
-holding the cradle in their arms; tribes such as _Mono-Paiute_ and
-_Pomo_, of California, and _Ute_ of Colorado, used the cradle by placing
-it on the mother’s back.
-
-There are more than six hundred Indian dialects. The _Ute_ word for
-cradle is _Ahcacon_. When asked, what the Indian word for “cradle,” or
-“baby board” is, it is impossible to answer. Because of the many
-dialects it is easily understandable that there are numerous words for
-this object, just as the word would be different in Spanish, Swedish,
-German or Russian.
- (See Plates 3a, 3b & 3c)
-
-
-
-
- BLOW GUN AND QUIVER
- _Cherokee_—North Carolina.
-
-
-Case No. 1:
-
-Made of wild cane and six feet long, this type blow gun was used for
-shooting poison darts. Some guns are as long as twenty feet. A blow gun
-is extraordinary in that it has for example, the power to shoot a dart a
-quarter of an inch into a pine door. This power is probably due to the
-choke bore design of the gun.
-
-The darts are fifteen to eighteen inches long and are made of locust
-wood. They are sharpened and hardened over a flame at one end and, at
-the opposite end are wrapped at an angle with the silk from a thistle
-plant. As the air is blown into the gun the thistle silk fluffs and
-creates a shoulder to blow against. The dart is retarded in its movement
-by the taper of the bore. It is not known what implement was employed to
-produce this tapered bore.
-
-Many years ago this type blow gun, with poison darts, was used in
-warfare by the _Cherokee_, _Choctaw_, _Catawaba_, and _Houma_ tribes.
-Displayed with the blow gun and darts is the basket quiver which held
-the darts. These specimens were brought to Oklahoma before 1860, by the
-grandfather of Jim Backwater.
- (See Plate 21)
-
-
- The Clark Field Collection of Indian Baskets is composed of one
- thousand and ninety six specimens, as of date (1964), from throughout
- North America and represents almost every basket making tribe of that
- area. Due to the wide scope of tribal representation and the beauty of
- these outstanding specimens, this collection is rated by the U. S.
- Indian Arts and Crafts Board as the most outstanding Indian basket
- collection in North America.

- INTRODUCTION
-
-
-The purpose that a foreword serves to the reading public is ostensibly
-to express its writer’s endorsement of the material presented and of the
-mode of treatment. In this instance the purpose is heartily avowed. The
-monograph in hand forms a contribution to the series of studies being
-pursued widely among scholars whose aim is to piece together portions of
-the picture of culture of the Indians of the Southeast. Our knowledge of
-the culture properties of native tribes in any area where their
-development has been going on for centuries in their original seats
-comes necessarily by gradual steps. These may seem disconnected in the
-minds of laymen who are in haste to see the whole story completed.
-Perhaps only the pioneer investigator knows how long and intimately a
-people must be studied by dwelling in their midst before their ways of
-life become clear enough to be understood and discussed. Collections of
-data, historical, descriptive and functional, have to be made and
-preserved in the form of notes and actual specimens. When these ends are
-accomplished, the picture of tribal life takes definite shape, and
-another gap in the history of a people is closed. These are the
-requirements for carrying on in a somewhat new undertaking in the line
-of history, namely ethno-history.
-
-Studies of a people’s physical structure, their psychology, language,
-religion and government contribute their share. On the material side
-their crafts developed to supply economic needs and the art involved in
-the crafts themselves must be illustrated with accumulations of
-specimens. These requirements the author of the following study has had
-well in mind for a considerable space of time, and he has treated them
-with conservative judgment and a regard for their implications with
-botany and ecology. Such remarks applied to the paper constitute the
-ethnologist’s endorsement.
-
-It is a splendid thing for man of the present to take time to stabilize
-his mind to contemplating the achievements of tribes inhabiting our
-continent as a prologue to the affairs of the present. Where is the
-brash critic to persist in the claim that the natives of America have no
-original elements of “civilization” either from the early or late past,
-or in the present? The Cherokee have provided an answer. Contemporary
-literature has amassed the evidence nor alone in the series of volumes
-from the University of Oklahoma Press, but in prose and poetry known
-throughout the nation. It offers a compendious chapter in the epic of
-America. Each additional study adds a paragraph of importance to the
-whole.
-
-The study to follow contributes a detail of existing knowledge of the
-art-crafts of the Cherokee. As such it will prove to be another source
-reference to the Cherokee way of life in art and its expression in
-concrete form. The utilities have been and still are to Indians a means
-of finding outlet for their aesthetic urges. Art and crafts are merged
-in the output. Other fields lie open for further attempts to perform its
-functions in national life by issuing successive publications dealing
-with its cultural material, thus laying foundations for that basic
-teaching we fondly call Americanism.

- ROOT RUNNER BASKETRY
-
-
-The association of root-runner basket forms in America would show a
-number of instances of use of a “Rod” as a one rod foundation for coiled
-baskets occurring originally in Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico and on the
-plains.[1] This technologically simple form of basket building material
-has implications bearing upon the age and area theory that challenges
-attention on a wider scale. Apart from the coiling process, a single rod
-construction appears in the Southeast in wicker work. What conclusions a
-broader study of single rod basketry (to which class the root runner
-series belongs) in any of its constructional forms, whether in coiling
-or wicker work, would lead to is quite beyond the purpose of this
-article.
-
-It is the intent of the writer to record a simple phase of basketry
-technique in the southern middle Atlantic slope and the northern part of
-the south and southeast area, as it applies to the Cherokee of the North
-Carolina highlands and of Oklahoma. In these areal habitats the two
-subdivisions of the tribe make use of three diverse plant types, the use
-of which in basketry construction in some districts does not overlap or
-coincide. In Carolina an earlier root-runner style has either passed out
-of memory or never existed among the Cherokee Indians, but came in later
-through acculturative changes. As far as has been ascertained, all fine
-root runner fibers used in the making of Indian baskets belong to two
-family groups, the botanical names of which are Caprifoliceae and
-Crataegus.
-
-To the first family group belong:
-
- Japanese Honeysuckle (Lonicera Japonica)
- A vine introduced into America from Asia around 1906.[2]
- Buckbrush (Symphoricarpos Orbiculatus)
- Also called Indian Currant and Coral Berry.
-
-To the second family belong:
-
- Wild Hawthorne (Crataegus Crus Galli)
- The Yuki Indians of California made a basket out of the stems of a
- native honeysuckle (Lonicera Interrupta). It, however does not
- have fine root runners.[3]

-The Rappahannock Indians of Virginia make a basket of Japanese
-honeysuckle root runners of a wicker type weave which is crude in
-weaving technique in comparison with baskets from North Carolina.
-(Rappahannock of Virginia.) Quoting Dr. Speck, “The art was revived by
-some of the women in 1922, when the Indian Association was formed. Susie
-and Lizzie Nelson, old Bob Nelson and other Rappahannock Indians made
-these baskets at that time. Chief Otto Nelson, his wife Susie, and
-Lizzie Nelson remember that when they were young about 1890, their
-grandmother Sallie Ronnie, who was then about 60 years old, had a
-honeysuckle sewing basket shaped like an oval bowl, similar in weave to
-the baskets mentioned above.
-
-“There is a native local, variety of Red Honeysuckle (Lonicera
-sempervirens) in Virginia which is not a ground runner but clings for
-six feet or so to trees and fences; it is finer stemmed than the
-Japanese variety and Indian women of the Rappahannock tribe have agreed
-to weave with it. All honeysuckle runners are kept soaked in water to
-preserve their pliability for weaving. They can be gathered and woven at
-any time of the year if treated in this manner.”
-
-As far as known no other fine root runner is used for basket weaving by
-the Indians of this state, although other fine root runners such as
-Devil’s Shoestring and London Pride grow there. Comments on honeysuckle
-wicker-weave baskets among the Mattaponi Indians of Virginia are made by
-Dr. Frank Speck in his book “At Mattaponi,” in which he speaks of the
-girls making baskets of honeysuckle stems, meticulously neat and with a
-technique suspiciously European in detail. We cannot be too sure that
-something like this did not exist before as many references to baskets
-of various forms made in the early days are encountered.[4] The Pamunkey
-Tribe, living on a reservation ten miles south of Mattaponi, have used
-honeysuckle runners for over twenty years. In both bands the details of
-form and weave are identical, and the historical circumstances may also
-be.

- ROOT RUNNER BASKETS IN NORTH CAROLINA
-
-
- [Illustration: Root Runner Basket]
-
-The Cherokee Indians of North Carolina used Japanese honeysuckle in
-basket weaving as early as 1880, when it was introduced by a Cherokee
-woman named Arizona Blankenship who had been educated at Hampton
-Institute, Virginia. It is interesting to note that the Cherokee Agency
-Indian School was founded at Cherokee, North Carolina, that same year.
-
-In January, 1943, Dr. Speck made an extensive trip into the hill country
-around Cherokee, North Carolina, visiting the old conservative Cherokee
-Indians of that region. He learned from the old people that honeysuckle
-basket weaving was not an original Cherokee Indian art. Making inquiry
-into their history of basket weaving, he could find no evidence of their
-use of hawthorne (Crataegus) although it is native to that state, or any
-historical evidence of the use of any other fine root runners. It is
-possible, of course, that the Hawthorne runners could have been used by
-other Indian bands in other parts of the state but so far it is not
-known, notwithstanding the fact Dr. Speck has spent many years of study
-of Cherokee Indian basketry in North Carolina.[5] Cane and oak splints
-were used chiefly by the Cherokee in basket weaving and the use of
-Japanese honeysuckle was undoubtedly a later addition to their culture.
-An illustration of one of the earliest known types of honeysuckle weave
-is shown in the Cherokee of North Carolina plate. This basket has no
-foundation to support the fine root runner fibers although most of their
-baskets made of honeysuckle runners do have foundations of oak splints.
-As far as is known no double weaving of fine root runner baskets was
-done by the Cherokee of this state.

- ROOT RUNNER BASKETS IN OKLAHOMA
-
-
- [Illustration: Root Runner Basket]
-
-The Cherokee of Oklahoma used buckbrush (Symphoricarpos Orbiculatus) in
-making fine root runner baskets and it appears after careful study and
-extensive inquiry, that this type of basket weaving may have originated
-among the Indians of Oklahoma. This conclusion is based on many years of
-collecting baskets from Cherokee Indians in every part of the old
-Cherokee nation. Interviews with older basket-making women were held
-through interpreters and it was clearly established that basket making
-from honeysuckle was not known to them or to their mothers or
-grandmothers who had lived in Georgia and North Carolina before their
-removal in 1938 to Oklahoma. The only type of weaving known to them
-before coming to Oklahoma was the cane and oak-splint weaving. From such
-interviews these facts could be traced back to as early as 1850. They
-were certain that the earliest baskets made by their grandparents were
-out of buckbrush and oak splints; no cane or honeysuckle was used in the
-northern part of the Cherokee nation.
-
-In the Spavinaw hills country of the northern part of the Cherokee
-nation the Indians used only buckbrush runners as cane does not grow in
-this section. In the southern part of the nation, in the vicinity of
-Gore and Weber Falls, cane grows and is used almost exclusively in
-basket weaving. In the locality of Tahlequah and Stillwell both cane and
-buckbrush weaving is done. The Cherokee of this region make both a
-double and single wicker weave basket of buckbrush runners and no
-foundation is used in either type although each is strong and
-serviceable. All of their fine root runner baskets (buckbrush) are a
-wicker type of weave of unexcelled technique. The double weave basket
-made by Lucy Mouse (shown in the Oklahoma example) is a splendid
-specimen of fine weaving—a strong durable basket. The dye used in this
-basket is walnut stain from boiled walnut hulls.
-
-The buckbrush runners are pulled in the fall of the years and after
-drying two or three weeks are boiled to remove the bark. The fibers
-remain flexible enough for weaving all winter which is the basket
-weaving season.
-
-The shapes were formerly market baskets, fruit trays, egg baskets and
-storage baskets, some of which were used by them as long as fifty years
-ago. Twenty-five years ago vegetable dyes were used for coloring but
-today commercial dyes are largely used; the baskets are made, as a rule,
-for sale, and show considerable white influence.

- AUTOBIOGRAPHY
-
-
-I was born in Dallas, Texas, on January 6, 1882.
-
-I first became interested in the art work of the Indians while working
-as a reporter for an Oklahoma daily newspaper in 1900, at which time I
-covered the opening for settlement of the Kiowa, Comanche and Apache
-Indian reservations in southwest Oklahoma. After two years of study
-(1903-1904) at the University of Oklahoma, I became a traveling salesman
-and remained in that profession until 1917 when I went into business for
-myself (retired from business in 1957). About 1918 I became actively
-interested in Indian pottery and basketry and started my collections.
-Since that time, Mrs. Field, my daughter Dorothy Field Maxwell (Mrs.
-Gilbert S.), and I have traveled more than one hundred and twenty five
-thousand miles collecting in the United States, Canada, Alaska, Mexico,
-Central and South America.
-
-To date (1964) we have spent 46 years in trying to collect authentic
-specimens of baskets made for actual use by all basket-making tribes (no
-tourist specimens are included). Intent upon maintaining the highest
-possible quality throughout the collection, I have always insisted upon
-acquiring the finest representative basket for its particular tribe or
-use.
-
-The collection is completely catalogued and photographed and has been
-given to the Philbrook Art Center of Tulsa, Oklahoma, where it is on
-exhibition. The collection has been rated by members of the Indian Arts
-and Crafts Board, and by members of other museums, as the most
-comprehensive in the United States for its beauty of specimens and
-unusual method of display.

- you already use to calculate your applicable taxes. The fee is owed
- to the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm trademark, but he has
- agreed to donate royalties under this paragraph to the Project
- Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation. Royalty payments must be paid
- within 60 days following each date on which you prepare (or are
- legally required to prepare) your periodic tax returns. Royalty
- payments should be clearly marked as such and sent to the Project
- Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation at the address specified in

- License. You must require such a user to return or destroy all
- copies of the works possessed in a physical medium and discontinue
- all use of and all access to other copies of Project Gutenberg-tm
- works.

-
-1.E.9. If you wish to charge a fee or distribute a Project

-from both the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and The
-Project Gutenberg Trademark LLC, the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm

-
-1.F.
-
-1.F.1. Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
-effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
-works not protected by U.S. copyright law in creating the Project
-Gutenberg-tm collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm
-electronic works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may
-contain "Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate
-or corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other
-intellectual property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or
-other medium, a computer virus, or computer codes that damage or
-cannot be read by your equipment.
-
-1.F.2. LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
-of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
-Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
-Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
-liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
-fees. YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
-LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE
-PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH 1.F.3. YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE
-TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE
-LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR
-INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
-DAMAGE.
-
-1.F.3. LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a
-defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can
-receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
-written explanation to the person you received the work from. If you
-received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium
-with your written explanation. The person or entity that provided you
-with the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in
-lieu of a refund. If you received the work electronically, the person
-or entity providing it to you may choose to give you a second
-opportunity to receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund. If
-the second copy is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing
-without further opportunities to fix the problem.
-
-1.F.4. Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
-in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS', WITH NO
-OTHER WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT
-LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE.
-
-1.F.5. Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied
-warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of
-damages. If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement
-violates the law of the state applicable to this agreement, the
-agreement shall be interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or
-limitation permitted by the applicable state law. The invalidity or
-unenforceability of any provision of this agreement shall not void the
-remaining provisions.
-
-1.F.6. INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the
-trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone
-providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in
-accordance with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the
-production, promotion and distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm
-electronic works, harmless from all liability, costs and expenses,
-including legal fees, that arise directly or indirectly from any of
-the following which you do or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this
-or any Project Gutenberg-tm work, (b) alteration, modification, or
-additions or deletions to any Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any
-Defect you cause.
-
-Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
-electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
-computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It
-exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations
-from people in all walks of life.
-
-Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
-assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
-goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
-remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
-and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future
-generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see
-Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at
-www.gutenberg.org
-
-
-
-Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation

-501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
-state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
-Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification

-
-Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
-Literary Archive Foundation
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
-spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
-increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
-freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
-array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
-($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
-status with the IRS.
-
-The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
-charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
-States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
-considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
-with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
-where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
-DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular
-state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
-have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
-against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
-approach us with offers to donate.
-
-International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
-any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
-outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
-
-Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
-methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
-ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To
-donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works.
-
-Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
-Gutenberg-tm concept of a library of electronic works that could be
-freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
-distributed Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of
-volunteer support.
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
-editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
-the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
-necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
-edition.
-
-Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search
-facility: www.gutenberg.org
-
-This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
-including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
-subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

-<p>The autobiographical information about Mr. Clark Field,
-which appears at the <a href="#c79">end of this brochure</a>, briefly tells the
-inspiring story of well over four decades of dedication to&mdash;and
-sincere belief in&mdash;the American Indian as a creative
-artist. The results of these many years of collecting
-Indian baskets (and pottery) are on permanent display
-at Philbrook Art Center, in the Clark Field Collection; in
-addition, many other specimens are in storage and available
-to the scholar in the study collection. This brochure
-is not intended as a catalogue of all of the baskets in the
-Clark Field Collection, which includes more than a thousand
-specimens. Rather, it serves as an introduction to
-Indian basketry and tells the story of how baskets were
-made and used. About 90 of the more important baskets
-are illustrated, including the most famous American Indian
-basket, woven by Dotsolalee reproduced in color
-on the <a href="#cover">cover</a>.</p>
-<p>Mr. Field has combined his enthusiasm for the art of
-Indian basketry with a high degree of scientific scholarship.
-He has kept careful records, which will become
-increasingly valuable as old specimens become even more
-rare and this Indian skill gradually dies out in this modern
-world. His daughter, Dorothy Field Maxwell, has assisted
-Mr. and Mrs. Field in their collection and with the preparation
-of this brochure. Mrs. Jeanne Snodgrass, Curator
-of Indian Art at Philbrook, has also assisted with the
-brochure in an editorial capacity.</p>
-<p>Mr. Field has performed an invaluable service to
-humanity in his long dedication to the preservation of
-this most important facet of the original Americans, and
-Philbrook Art Center will be, for countless generations,
-a mecca for those who wish to enjoy this fascinating utilitarian,
-yet esthetically meaningful art form.</p>

-<h2 id="c2"><span class="small">BASKETRY</span></h2>
-<p>The need for food containers in early human communities
-led to the &ldquo;invention&rdquo; of basketry. The first
-baskets may have been made of animal skin or twigs;
-but soon evolved into the use of more suitable materials
-such as vegetable fibres. Because of the organic materials
-used in making baskets, most of the earliest examples
-have been lost through decay. A few examples have been
-preserved but only in areas of extremely dry climate,
-such as in Egypt, in Chile and Peru in South America, and
-in the southwestern United States. Radiocarbon tests of
-woven artifacts establish the existence and the use of
-baskets in Nevada, Utah and Oregon as early as 9000 to
-700 B.C., and that Egyptians of the pre-dynastic period
-(c. 5000 B.C.) used baskets. Early literary sources, such
-as the Bible, mention baskets and other woven articles such
-as the &ldquo;ark of bulrushes&rdquo; in which the infant Moses was
-hidden (Exod. 2: 3, 53); baskets were used to bring the
-tithes to the temple, and Matthew talked of &ldquo;twelve
-baskets full.&rdquo; (Matt. 14: 20.)</p>
-<p>In the study of American Indian baskets there are
-three major factors to be considered: the first is the tribe
-which produced the basket; the second is the language,
-since inter-marriage among tribes produced varying cultures;
-the third factor is the weave of the basket itself.
-For example, the five major weaves used by American
-Indians are: Coil, Twine, Twill, Wicker and Imbricated.
-To the novice there is the obvious difference in shape,
-color and texture of a collection of Indian baskets viewed
-in a museum. To the collector there is the hint of the whole
-pattern of life of the Indians who produced the basket.</p>
-<p>The materials used in any particular basket reflect the
-locale of the tribe which produced it, for the Indian used
-materials that were at hand. In the case of the <i>Cherokees</i>,
-a native variety of red honey suckle produced runners that
-were used by that tribe in Virginia in a wicker-type weave.
-In North Carolina, the same tribe utilized the Japanese
-honeysuckle, while in Oklahoma the tribe used buckbrush
-runners. In Arizona, the <i>Pimas</i> wove split willow twigs
-and the black Martyna or &ldquo;Devil&rsquo;s Claw&rdquo; of their desert
-lands.</p>
-<div class="pb" id="Page_2">2</div>
-<p>It is the Indian woman, not the man, who makes baskets
-(except for few instances, i.e., the <i>Papago</i> carrying basket).
-They are made either for utilitarian use or for ceremonial
-use. Basket designs are not taught to the craftsman nor
-are they copied from a pattern book. They are created
-by the individual weaver who is an artist of great ability.
-The artist-craftsman must first develop a manner of weaving
-that will form a shape adequate for the basket&rsquo;s final
-use. She must then find suitable materials in her area for
-this weaving project. This step completed, she mentally
-creates a decorative design and invents a method of
-weaving it into the basket.</p>
-<p>It is known that all North American Indian tribes, at
-some time in their history, made and used baskets. However,
-the finest and most decorative baskets were made
-about the middle of the 19th century, in the Northwest,
-down the Pacific Coast states and into the Southwest
-through Arizona and New Mexico.</p>
-<p>In 1935 there were more than five hundred <i>Pima</i> Indians making baskets for their own use. Now there are
-less than six good weavers on that reservation. Today
-<i>Papago</i> Indians make some baskets for tourist trade, but
-not nearly as many as they made a few years ago. The
-<i>Hopi</i> Indians bring a few baskets to market places, but
-there are fewer and fewer each year. For example: at the
-1964 Inter-Tribal Indian Ceremonials, Gallup, New Mexico,
-there were forty classifications in the basketry competition&mdash;baskets
-were submitted to only twenty-seven
-classifications. There are some basket weavers among
-other tribes but for the most part, few tribes today may
-be called &ldquo;basket makers.&rdquo;</p>
-<p>The influence of other culture groups upon the craft
-of basket weaving is so great that each year fewer baskets
-are produced by the regular weavers. The Indian women
-have learned that they can secure mass produced articles
-as a substitute for baskets. Only two percent of the types
-of baskets included in this collection are now being made.
-It is quite probable that by the year 2000 there will be
-NO Indian baskets being woven.</p>
-<div class="pb" id="Page_3">3</div>
-<h2 id="c3"><span class="small">EARLY BASKETRY</span></h2>
-<h3 id="c4"><i>Ozark Mountains of Arkansas</i></h3>
-<p>Very few people are aware that baskets were made by
-the Ozark &ldquo;Bluff Dwellers.&rdquo; A special exhibit in the University
-of Arkansas Museum, Fayetteville, contains a small
-basket filled with grasshoppers. The University Museum
-points out that as long ago as the year 1 A.D., baskets
-were being made by Indians in the Ozark Area. This
-provides further evidence of the Indian&rsquo;s early inhabitance
-of this country.</p>
-<h2 id="c5"><span class="small">BASKETS WHICH ARE NO LONGER MADE&mdash;AND WHY</span></h2>
-<p>Case No. 5:</p>
-<p>These tightly woven baskets made by <i>Thlinkits</i> of
-Alaska, were woven from spruce tree roots which were
-split by hand. The baskets were used to hold boiling
-water for clam cooking. The fibers swelled to such
-an extent that water could be retained in the basket for
-as long as five hours. Today this tribe purchases a kettle
-or bucket for their boiling needs.
-<span class="lr">(See <a class="htm" href="#fig9c">Plate 9c</a>)</span></p>
-<p>Case No. 7:</p>
-<p>These large <i>Apache</i> baskets used for storing grain,
-were made about 1874. It required as long as three
-months to produce this type of specimen and since 1914
-very few have been made. The twenty-five cent burlap
-sack has replaced it.
-<span class="lr">(See <a class="htm" href="#fig6c">Plate 6c</a>)</span></p>
-<p>Case No. 9:</p>
-<p>This <i>Cochiti</i> bird cage, made of a yucca plant, has
-been replaced by metal bird cages.</p>
-<h2 id="c6"><span class="small">IDEAS COPIED FROM INDIAN BASKETS</span></h2>
-<p>The Anglo appropriated many Indian basket ideas for
-his own use:</p>
-<p>The <i>Penobscot</i> colander was found in use as such
-among the people of this Maine tribe and was made about
-1841. It is quite possible that we took this as a pattern
-for our own metal colanders.
-<span class="lr">(See <a class="htm" href="#fig10a">Plate 10a</a>)</span></p>
-<p>It is also quite possible that we copied the pattern of
-the <i>Catawba</i>, North Carolina, fish trap for our own minnow
-trap.
-<span class="lr">(See <a class="htm" href="#fig4a">Plate 4a</a>)</span></p>
-<div class="pb" id="Page_4">4</div>
-<h2 id="c7"><span class="small">BASKETS OF UNIQUE DESIGNS AND USES</span></h2>
-<p>The average weaver does not use more than five
-or six figures in a design.</p>
-<p>Case No. 3: <i>Mission</i> of California&mdash;a quail and flying duck design.
-<span class="lr">(See <a class="htm" href="#fig11b">Plate 11b</a>)</span></p>
-<p>Case No. 3: <i>Shoshone</i> (Panamint), Death Valley California&mdash;Oriole design food bowl.
-<span class="lr">(See <a class="htm" href="#fig11c">Plate 11c</a>)</span></p>
-<p>Case No. 9: <i>Choctaw</i> of Oklahoma&mdash;Wall Pocket.
-<span class="lr">(See <a class="htm" href="#fig16c">Plate 16c</a>)</span></p>
-<p>Case No. 9: <i>Niantic</i> of Connecticut&mdash;clothes rinsing basket.
-<span class="lr">(See <a class="htm" href="#fig19d">Plate 19d</a>)</span></p>
-<p>Case No. 10: <i>Chitimacha</i> of Louisiana&mdash;an alligator intestine design.
-<span class="lr">(See <a class="htm" href="#fig15c">Plate 15c</a>)</span></p>
-<p>Case No. 11: <i>Shoshone</i> (Panamint), Death Valley, California&mdash;seventy figures in the design; including
-the American Eagle, crow in a tree,
-rocky mountain sheep, and lizard tracks in
-the sand.
-<span class="lr">(See <a class="htm" href="#fig6b">Plate 6b</a>)</span></p>
-<p>Case No. 11: <i>Quinault</i> of Washington&mdash;Clam gathering basket.
-<span class="lr">(See <a class="htm" href="#fig14b">Plate 14b</a>)</span></p>
-<p>Case No. 12: <i>Cahuilla</i> of California&mdash;food platter rattlesnake design.
-<span class="lr">(See <a class="htm" href="#fig12a">Plate 12a</a>)</span></p>
-<p>Case No. 12: <i>Chemehueve</i> of Arizona&mdash;a &ldquo;stink bug&rdquo; design.
-<span class="lr">(See <a class="htm" href="#fig12c">Plate 12c</a>)</span></p>
-<p>Case No. 12: <i>Yavapai</i> Apache of Arizona&mdash;a tarantula design.
-<span class="lr">(See <a class="htm" href="#fig12d">Plate 12d</a>)</span></p>
-<p>Case No. 13: <i>Paiute</i> of Nevada&mdash;porridge bowl.
-<span class="lr">(See <a class="htm" href="#fig10b">Plate 10b</a>)</span></p>
-<p>Case No. 13: <i>Hoopa</i> of California&mdash;grinding tray and stone.
-<span class="lr">(See <a class="htm" href="#fig10d">Plate 10d</a>)</span></p>
-<h2 id="c8"><span class="small">THE VANISHING INDIAN?</span></h2>
-<p>The vanishing Indian? He is not vanishing! In 1890,
-the Indian population in North America numbered about
-one quarter million and in 1963, records reveal there are
-over one million Indians.</p>
-<div class="pb" id="Page_5">5</div>
-<h2 id="c9"><span class="small">SYMBOLIC DESIGNS?</span></h2>
-<p>There is the mistaken idea that one tribe &ldquo;understands&rdquo;
-the designs of another tribe and that there is symbolism,
-or meaning, to every design. Actually, <i>most</i> designs are
-purely decorative renderings and they have no more symbolism
-for the Indian than a fabric design has for the general
-public.</p>
-<p>The identification of a basket is made not through the
-interpretation of a &ldquo;mysterious meaning&rdquo; of the design
-but generally from the design motif itself. For instance,
-baskets made by tribes of southern California are distinguishable
-to the trained eye since they tend to be of
-a particularly heavy, bold and angular style. They seldom
-have <i>mysterious meanings</i>!
-<span class="lr">(See <a class="htm" href="#fig12b">Plate 12b</a>)</span></p>
-<h2 id="c10"><span class="small">BASKETRY</span></h2>
-<h3 id="c11"><i>Western Apache</i>&mdash;Arizona and New Mexico</h3>
-<p>Case No. 13:</p>
-<p>At one time it was not difficult to identify <i>Apache</i>
-Basketry by tribal name, such as: <i>San Carlos</i>, <i>Chiricahua</i>,
-<i>Tonto</i>, and <i>Yavapai</i>. Today it is not possible to identify
-baskets as belonging to a particular <i>Apache</i> tribe.</p>
-<p>During the nineteenth century these southwest tribes
-waged continual warfare with the Anglos and Spaniards
-who had settled in the area. Attempts were made by the
-United States government to establish treaties. However,
-newly written treaties were broken before the ink dried!
-About 1880, the army rounded up all the Apaches of
-Arizona and New Mexico and took them as prisoners to
-the <i>San Carlos Reservation</i>. There they remained confined
-for several years. During this period of confinement
-the basket weavers copied designs and weaving techniques
-from one another.</p>
-<p>When the tribes were released and allowed to return
-to their respective reservations the &ldquo;new&rdquo; styles of basketry
-were continued. As a result of this situation, today we
-find baskets woven by these tribes to be so similar in
-appearance that definite tribal affiliation cannot be determined.
-They are therefore classified only as <i>Western
-Apache</i> baskets.
-<span class="lr">(See <a class="htm" href="#fig13a">Plate 13a</a>)</span></p>
-<div class="pb" id="Page_6">6</div>
-<h2 id="c12"><span class="small">DATSOLALEE</span>
-<br />1918
-<br /><i>Washoe</i>&mdash;Western Nevada</h2>
-<p>Case No. 3:</p>
-<p>This basket was made by <i>Dabuda</i> (Young Willow).
-She was later given the nick-name of <i>Datsolalee</i> (Broad
-in the Hips) and is best known by this name since later
-in life she tipped the scales at 350 pounds.</p>
-<p>On March 26, 1917, <i>Datsolalee</i> started weaving this
-specimen which is fifty-two inches in circumference and
-has more than 100,000 stitches (more than thirty to the
-inch). Eleven months later, on February 16, 1918, she
-completed this basket which is her greatest masterpiece.
-Although made for ceremonial use, the shape is that of
-a food bowl. The white background is made of peeled
-twig from the Mountain Willow; the black color is the
-root of a Bracken, or giant fern; the reddish-brown is bark
-from the Nevada Redbud. To her the design meant: <i>We
-assemble to discuss the happy lives of our ancestors.</i>
-Shortly after the completion of this basket the weaver lost
-her eyesight. She died at the age of 95 in 1926.</p>
-<p>In 1958 the U. S. Indian Arts and Crafts Board,
-Department of the Interior, Washington, D.C., rated this
-basket as probably the finest specimen of basketry ever
-produced.</p>
-<p>During her lifetime, <i>Datsolalee</i> made only forty-six
-large scale baskets. During the summer months she could
-often be found at the resort area of Lake Tahoe, California,
-weaving miniature basketry which she sold to tourists for
-small sums. In 1914, Mrs. Henrietta K. Burton, from the
-Bureau of Indian Affairs in Washington, D.C., visited the
-artist&rsquo;s home in Carson City, Nevada. Mrs. Burton made
-numerous photographs of <i>Datsolalee</i> and her baskets for
-use in federal publications which dealt with Indian basketry.
-Since that time these photos have appeared in many
-other basketry publications.</p>
-<p>Due to the artist&rsquo;s reputation and ability, as well as
-the artistry and craftsmanship of this specimen it is valued
-at $2000. It is doubtful such a basket could ever again
-be produced&mdash;no weaver today shows ability such as
-that of <i>Datsolalee</i>. Her baskets are sought by collectors
-throughout the world.</p>
-<div class="pb" id="Page_7">7</div>
-<p>In 1914, G. A. Steiner, of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania,
-purchased the finest basket the artist had produced up
-to that time. It is forty-nine inches in circumference and
-has more than eighty thousand stitches. It was purchased
-for $1950, and added to the Carnegie Library Collection
-in Pittsburgh (this was the highest price ever paid for
-a single Indian basket).</p>
-<p>Philbrook&rsquo;s <i>Datsolalee</i> basket has received international
-recognition. It may be seen, in color, in <i>Indian Art
-in America</i>, by Frederick J. Dockstader (New York
-Graphic Society, 1960) and in the magazine <i>America</i>
-(No. 67) which was distributed by the U. S. Information
-Agency and printed in Russian.

-<br />c. 1835
-<br /><i>Pennacook</i>&mdash;Northern Massachusetts</h2>
-<p>Case No. 4:</p>
-<p>This basket is made of ash splints and is white on the
-interior. The exterior is decorated with designs painted in
-native dyes using a swabbing stick which has been pounded
-at one end to form a brush.</p>
-<p>This earliest known type of painted-on decoration
-ceased about 1870. An approximate dating for this specimen
-can be established from an April 2, 1835, copy of
-the <i>Boston Daily Courier</i>, which lines the basket lid.
-<span class="lr">(See <a class="htm" href="#fig2d">Plate 2d</a>)</span></p>
-<h2 id="c14"><span class="small">UTILITARIAN&mdash;HISTORICAL</span>
-<br /><i>Wampanoag</i>&mdash;Massachusetts</h2>
-<p>Case No. 4:</p>
-<p>This very plain basket, constructed of brown ash splints,
-was authenticated by the late Frank G. Speck, internationally
-known University of Pennsylvania anthropologist,
-as being <i>Wampanoag</i>.</p>
-<p>The <i>Wampanoags</i>, now extinct, were a branch of
-the Massachusetts <i>Algonquins</i>.</p>
-<p>This specimen was made by a direct descendant of
-King <i>Massasoit</i>, the Indian chief who met the Puritans
-at their Plymouth Rock landing in 1621. Massasoit was
-the father of King Phillip, for whom the King Phillip&rsquo;s
-Indian Wars of 1676, were named.

-<h2 id="c15"><span class="small">CEREMONIAL WINE BASKET</span>
-<br />c. 1837
-<br /><i>Papago</i>&mdash;Arizona</h2>
-<p>Case No. 4:</p>
-<p>Annually, in July when the fruit of the Saguaro Cactus
-is ripe, the <i>Papagos</i> hold their <i>Nahwehteete</i> (wine drinking)
-ceremony. The purpose of this ceremony is to offer
-a prayer of supplication to bring rain. Wine, made from
-the Saguaro (called <i>Tizwin</i>) is passed around in this
-basket and served from a gourd dipper.</p>
-<p>Between dances the basket is used for storing the
-sacred ceremonial paraphernalia used in the dance. The
-&ldquo;Keeper of the Sacred Basket&rdquo; seldom ever parts with
-the basket. Therefore, not many can be found in public
-or private collections.
-<span class="lr">(See <a class="htm" href="#fig17b">Plate 17b</a>)</span></p>
-<h2 id="c16"><span class="small">MORTUARY</span>
-<br /><i>Pomo</i>&mdash;Northern California</h2>
-<p>Case No. 3:</p>
-<p>The <i>Pomo</i> Indians are the only tribe known to have
-completely and fully decorated baskets with feathers.
-These baskets were considered to be the tribe&rsquo;s highest artistic
-achievement. It was a great honor to the memory of a
-deceased person when this type of basket, especially made
-for such an occasion, was placed on his body at the cremation
-ceremony. It may be said that the sacrifice of
-these baskets was the tribe&rsquo;s most profound means of
-showing respect at the time of cremation.</p>
-<p>The custom of making and using these baskets no
-longer prevails. Few people today know the art, and
-even fewer people are willing to devote the nearly two
-years to make one feathered basket.</p>
-<p>At the time this ceremony was active in the <i>Pomo</i>
-culture, each family had several such baskets in reserve.
-It must therefore be assumed that the women of the

-<p>Case No. 4:</p>
-<p>The &ldquo;Jumping Dance Basket&rdquo; receives its name from
-a ceremony in which the participants perform with jumping
-dance motions. This ceremony is a prayer of supplication
-for the return of the soil&rsquo;s fertility. It is held in the
-spring of the year on land that has ceased to bear crops.</p>
-<p>Some people question these customs, and actually call
-them mere &ldquo;Indian superstitions.&rdquo; It is revealing to note,
-however, that less than a century ago Anglos believed
-that the childhood disease, rickets, could be cured by
-splitting an ash tree at dawn, and passing the stricken
-child head-first through the opening in the tree.</p>
-<p>This set of three baskets, handed down from generation

-<p>The <i>Soyal</i> (Prayer Offering Ceremony) of the religious

-is part of a boy&rsquo;s initiation ceremony at puberty.
-The ceremony is held mainly in the <i>Kiva</i> (underground
-ceremonial chamber), from December through April. Here
-the novice meets his godfather for the first time.</p>
-<p>The design of the large plaque (at top of plate) represents
-a sand painting which is executed on the floor
-before the <i>Kiva</i> altar. The novice wears only a breechcloth
-as his godfather instructs him to kneel on the painting
-and rubs him with sacred corn meal, which has been
-blessed by the <i>Cacique</i> or religious leader. The significance
-of this ritual is that the novice&rsquo;s sins and evil thoughts are
-washed away. The corn meal is then taken outside and
-cast to the winds, thus purifying the boy. (Center of <a class="htm" href="#fig20">plate 20</a>:

-<p>The wicker basket (at bottom of <a class="htm" href="#fig20">plate 20</a>) is used in

-<p>Case No. 4:</p>
-<p>This plaque is made of yucca. The green color is unbleached
-yucca, the white is bleached yucca and the black
-color is yucca which has been dyed by using black sunflower
-seeds.</p>
-<p>The plaque is called <i>Kochaiinpi</i> (White Meal Plaque),
-and is woven by a prospective bride for use in the wedding
-procession. It is hung in the newly married couple&rsquo;s
-home afterwards, partly to commemorate the occasion.</p>
-<p>After the wedding the single-file procession proceeds
-to the new home which has recently been built by
-the groom. This procession is led by the bride&rsquo;s mother
-who carries on her head a large pottery bowl filled with
-baked beans. The bride follows next. With both hands
-she carries a large basket tray stacked with the <i>piki</i> bread
-(a thin wafer of bread&mdash;almost like parchment) which
-she has made from blue corn meal mixed with sweetened
-siovi ashes and cooked on a hot stone. Next in line are
-four male relatives of the bridegroom, each holding a corner
-of a blanket on which rests the &ldquo;White Meal Plaque.&rdquo;
-The plaque filled and running over with the white meal
-which the bride had ground earlier. Thus, the young
-couple start their life together with an ample quantity
-of food.</p>
-<p>The spiritual connotation of the basket is this: It is
-believed that at the time of death an individual&rsquo;s soul
-stands on the brink of the <i>Maski</i> (or after world; in this
-case literally the Grand Canyon). The soul steps onto the
-&ldquo;White Meal Plaque,&rdquo; gently soars over the abyss, and
-safely descends to the bottom. Thus the soul departs to
-the abiding place of the dead and forever rests in peace.

-from the basket, are from the head of the Valley Quail,
-or Gambel&rsquo;s Quail. The dark blue feathers are taken from
-different quails. The decorative disk-like beads are fashioned
-in the following manner: the shells are broken into
-small pieces and then drilled with a pump drill. They
-are then strung on a cord and the strand is then rubbed
-on a wet sandstone until the beads are round and uniform
-in size.</p>
-<p>This type of basket was made by the bride&rsquo;s mother and
-is considered to be the finest example of basketry produced
-by <i>Pomo</i> Indians. The <i>Chimopika</i> (Dowry Basket)
-is presented to the bridegroom, by the weaver, at the

-to the guests.</p>
-<p>The married couple retains this sacred memento of
-the marriage ceremony as long as they both live, but if

-<p>This basket was used in ceremonies prior to about

-Since about 1914, very few, if any, as large as this have

-The artist formerly prepared her own dyes from berries,
-roots, barks, etc. Today, aniline dyes are used almost exclusively.
-Steps used in the preparation of quills for bark
-decoration are as follows:</p>
-<blockquote>
-<p>The artist usually divides the quills into four
-lengths and stores them in separate containers because
-they differ in length and thickness (one to four
-inches long and 1/16 to 3/32 inches thick). The
-quills are washed well in soap root before being dyed,
-and stored. When she is ready to use the quills she
-softens them in her mouth. The warmth and moisture
-are most effective and it is thought that the saliva
-contains some special property that makes them more
-pliable. She generally keeps a number of the quills
-of the same size and color in one cheek with the
-points protruding from her lips, pulling out a quill
-as it is needed. Small holes are punched in the bark
-with an awl and the quill is inserted in these holes.
-The ends are bent over on the back side of the bark
-to hold them in place. By using quills of the desired
-length to fit the decoration, it is not necessary to cut
-them. The quill swells and stiffens as it dries, making
-it even more secure.</p>
-</blockquote>
-<p>In most boxes, so decorated, a plain undecorated piece
-of bark is fitted on the inside (or back side) to hide the
-raw ends of the quills. Three to four thousand quills are
-required to cover a box the size of the one shown in
-<a class="htm" href="#fig1a">Plate 1a</a>. Vegetable dyes were used on the quills of this
-box and have not faded in more than fifty years.

-<p>Case No. 2:</p>
-<p>Indian women make these to show their skill in weaving.
-In similar fashion, the Anglo has engraved the <i>Lord&rsquo;s
-Prayer</i> on the head of a straight pin in order to illustrate
-his skill.</p>
-<p>The principal, and interesting difference is: the Anglo
-uses a magnifying glass and the Indian women do not.</p>

-<br />c. 1875
-<br /><i>Huron</i>&mdash;Province of Quebec, Canada</h2>
-<p>Case No. 3:</p>
-<p>This basket and the basket from Maine are rare examples
-of the old Indian art of moose hair embroidery.
-A cluster of very fine hair grows from the withers of the
-wild moose and this hair, dyed in suitable colors, is used
-for the embroidery.</p>
-<p>The art of this type embroidery probably dates back
-to about 1714, at which time the natives used this method
-of decoration for their own buckskin clothing. It is believed
-that these people were taught the art at convents
-after the steel needle was introduced into this country
-from Europe in the eighteenth century. However, there
-is no proof of this theory.</p>
-<p>It is interesting to note other unique examples of
-decorative art by these people; i.e., the drilling of seed
-pearls the size of the head of a straight pin and in turn,
-sewing these pearls on cloth or fiber. With crude tools,
-they created rare and beautiful works of decorative art
-which would be difficult for us to duplicate with today&rsquo;s
-precision tooling.</p>
-<p>After adopting Anglo-style clothing these Indians practiced
-moose hair embroidery art on trinkets such as these
-until it became almost extinct by 1890. Specimens such
-as these are rare even in museums.

-<h2 id="c46"><span class="small">WHALEBONE (Baleen)</span>
-<br /><i>Eskimo</i>&mdash;Point Barrow, Alaska</h2>
-<p>Case No. 3:</p>
-<p>The Baleen used in the weaving of this basket is found
-in the upper jaw of the Bowhead, or Alaskan Right Whale.
-This horny substance is pulled into various sized strips.
-While it is still fresh it is flexible and can be woven as
-easily as fiber. The same weaving technique used in making
-coiled baskets from grass roots is also used in the
-construction of this basket.</p>
-<div class="pb" id="Page_22">22</div>
-<p>An Alaskan trader is credited with having taught the
-<i>Eskimos</i> to use Baleen as a weaving medium. The art was
-almost extinct until a few years ago when the U. S. Indian
-Arts and Crafts Board gave needed encouragement to the
-craftsmen.</p>
-<p>The Bowhead, or Right Whale, is not plentiful at
-Point Barrow; only two or three such whales are caught
-during a good year. Some years none are caught.</p>
-<p>Two factors are predominate in making this type of
-basketry scarce: 1) lack of Baleen, 2) the fifty hours
-necessary for a skillful craftsman to construct the specimen.</p>
-<p>The decorative ivory figure on the lid of the basket
-is made of walrus tusk.

-<h2 id="c47"><span class="small">ALEUT ISLAND BASKETRY</span>
-<br />c. 1860 and c. 1939-1944
-<br /><i>Attu</i>&mdash;Attu Island, Alaska</h2>
-<p>Case No. 6:</p>
-<p>The baskets shown in display case no. 6, are the
-finest weave known to have been made in North America.</p>
-<p>Woven in about thirty days, the average size basket
-may have up to 10,000 stitches to the square inch. The
-finest machine made cotton sheeting has 3600 stitches
-to the square inch.</p>
-<p>The dark toned baskets were made about 1860 and the
-lighter toned ones were made between 1939 and 1944.</p>
-<p>These specimens are made by the <i>Aleut</i> Indian women
-of a beach grass (Wild Rye) which grows on Attu Island.
-The stems and blades are about the size of wheat straw,
-and the <i>Aleut</i> women split them with their finger nails.</p>
-<p>In 1741, Russian explorers discovered and settled the
-Aleutian Islands. They later found that the native women
-were wrapping their dead with finely woven, narrow
-strips of grass fiber and placing the bodies in caves.</p>
-<p>Russians then encouraged the <i>Aleuts</i> to weave baskets
-of this same product. In the normal course of events,
-the Russians influenced the use of silk and cotton thread
-decorations on the baskets.</p>
-<div class="pb" id="Page_23">23</div>
-<p>In 1948, Edward L. Keithan, curator of The State
-Museum of Alaska, made a field trip to the Aleutian
-Islands and found only three women still practicing this
-fine art of basketry. Today, there is no continuance of
-this art.

-<h2 id="c48"><span class="small">GAMBLING DEVICES</span></h2>
-<p>Case No. 2:</p>
-<p>Illustrated here are several types of gambling devices
-used by North American Indians:</p>
-<p class="revint"><i>Pomos</i> of California, used a mat on which they threw
-their counters.
-<span class="lr">(See <a class="htm" href="#fig4b">Plate 4b</a>)</span></p>
-<p class="revint"><i>Seneca-Cayuga</i> of New York, used a wooden bowl and
-six flat, polished peach seeds for their famous &ldquo;Peach
-Seed Game.&rdquo; This bowl was brought to Oklahoma
-about 1840.
-<span class="lr">(See <a class="htm" href="#fig4c">Plate 4c</a>)</span></p>
-<p class="revint"><i>Cheyennes</i> of Oklahoma, used a basket bowl with wooden
-counters.</p>
-<p class="revint"><i>Pawnees</i> of Nebraska, used a basket tray. This is the only
-type of basketry known to have been made by them.
-This basket was made before they were removed to
-Oklahoma.
-<span class="lr">(See <a class="htm" href="#fig4d">Plate 4d</a>)</span></p>
-<p class="revint"><i>Klamaths</i> of Oregon, used a different gambling device in
-that it was more of a guessing game. The mat covered
-the hands of the operator. The two bones are held,
-one in each hand, and rotated. The bet was made
-on the turn of the selected bone. These counters were
-usually made from the foreleg of a deer or elk.</p>
-<p>The Mongolian culture is well known to have a strong
-interest in gambling games. Some anthropologists tell us
-that the North American Indians came to this country
-many years ago across the Bering Sea from Asia and that
-they are descendants of the Mongolians in that area.</p>
-<div class="pb" id="Page_24">24</div>
-<h2 id="c49"><span class="small">MANIOC PRESS</span>
-<br /><i>Carib</i>&mdash;Guatemala and Venezuela</h2>
-<p>Case No. 13:</p>
-<p>Indians of Mexico, Central America, northern South
-America and the Caribbean Islands used this press to
-remove poison (Hydrocyanic Acid) from the Manioc
-root. This root is similar to the root used in the preparation
-of tapioca. The Indians process the root to make
-a flour which is used in a native bread. This type of
-press was in use by these people as early as 892 A.D. and
-in some areas is still being used today.</p>
-<p>To remove the poison from Manioc the root is pounded,
-then stuffed into the basket, causing it to expand in
-girth and to shorten in length. (The particular type of
-diagonal twill weave used in this basket press permits
-a girth expansion to twice its former size and a reduction
-in length of about one-half its original size.) The
-press is then submerged in water and soaked until thoroughly
-saturated. When it is removed from the water
-the press is hung by the loop end, usually on a branch.
-The foot or a weight is put on the closed end of the
-press and this creates a squeezing action which removes
-the poison from the root inside. At this point the press
-changes shape and becomes long and narrow again. This
-process is repeated several times to assure the removal
-of the poison.
-<span class="lr">(See <a class="htm" href="#fig11a">Plate 11a</a>)</span></p>
-<h2 id="c50"><span class="small">BABY CRADLES</span></h2>
-<p>Case No. 5:</p>
-<p>The art of making basket cradles is almost lost today.
-However, the wooden cradle is still made and used extensively
-by many tribes; this is especially so in the
-Pueblo tribes.</p>
-<p>The following illustrates the use of baby cradles by
-some basket making tribes: Hoopas, of California, used
-a sit-down type cradle&mdash;the baby is seated in, and tied
-to, the cradle; <i>Hopis</i>, of Arizona and <i>Frazier River</i>, of
-Washington, used the cradle for putting the baby to
-sleep holding the cradle in their arms; tribes such as
-<i>Mono-Paiute</i> and <i>Pomo</i>, of California, and <i>Ute</i> of Colorado,
-used the cradle by placing it on the mother&rsquo;s back.</p>
-<div class="pb" id="Page_25">25</div>
-<p>There are more than six hundred Indian dialects. The
-<i>Ute</i> word for cradle is <i>Ahcacon</i>. When asked, what the
-Indian word for &ldquo;cradle,&rdquo; or &ldquo;baby board&rdquo; is, it is impossible
-to answer. Because of the many dialects it is
-easily understandable that there are numerous words for
-this object, just as the word would be different in Spanish,
-Swedish, German or Russian.

-<h2 id="c51"><span class="small">BLOW GUN AND QUIVER</span>
-<br /><i>Cherokee</i>&mdash;North Carolina.</h2>
-<p>Case No. 1:</p>
-<p>Made of wild cane and six feet long, this type blow
-gun was used for shooting poison darts. Some guns are
-as long as twenty feet. A blow gun is extraordinary in that
-it has for example, the power to shoot a dart a quarter of
-an inch into a pine door. This power is probably due to
-the choke bore design of the gun.</p>
-<p>The darts are fifteen to eighteen inches long and are
-made of locust wood. They are sharpened and hardened
-over a flame at one end and, at the opposite end are
-wrapped at an angle with the silk from a thistle plant.
-As the air is blown into the gun the thistle silk fluffs and
-creates a shoulder to blow against. The dart is retarded in
-its movement by the taper of the bore. It is not known
-what implement was employed to produce this tapered
-bore.</p>
-<p>Many years ago this type blow gun, with poison darts,
-was used in warfare by the <i>Cherokee</i>, <i>Choctaw</i>, <i>Catawaba</i>,
-and <i>Houma</i> tribes. Displayed with the blow gun and darts
-is the basket quiver which held the darts. These specimens
-were brought to Oklahoma before 1860, by the grandfather
-of Jim Backwater.

-<p>The purpose that a foreword serves to the reading public is ostensibly to
-express its writer&rsquo;s endorsement of the material presented and of the mode
-of treatment. In this instance the purpose is heartily avowed. The monograph
-in hand forms a contribution to the series of studies being pursued
-widely among scholars whose aim is to piece together portions of the picture
-of culture of the Indians of the Southeast. Our knowledge of the culture
-properties of native tribes in any area where their development has been
-going on for centuries in their original seats comes necessarily by gradual
-steps. These may seem disconnected in the minds of laymen who are in
-haste to see the whole story completed. Perhaps only the pioneer investigator
-knows how long and intimately a people must be studied by dwelling
-in their midst before their ways of life become clear enough to be understood
-and discussed. Collections of data, historical, descriptive and functional,
-have to be made and preserved in the form of notes and actual
-specimens. When these ends are accomplished, the picture of tribal life takes
-definite shape, and another gap in the history of a people is closed. These
-are the requirements for carrying on in a somewhat new undertaking in the
-line of history, namely ethno-history.</p>
-<p>Studies of a people&rsquo;s physical structure, their psychology, language, religion
-and government contribute their share. On the material side their crafts
-developed to supply economic needs and the art involved in the crafts themselves
-must be illustrated with accumulations of specimens. These requirements
-the author of the following study has had well in mind for a considerable
-space of time, and he has treated them with conservative judgment and
-a regard for their implications with botany and ecology. Such remarks applied
-to the paper constitute the ethnologist&rsquo;s endorsement.</p>
-<p>It is a splendid thing for man of the present to take time to stabilize his mind
-to contemplating the achievements of tribes inhabiting our continent as a
-prologue to the affairs of the present. Where is the brash critic to persist in
-the claim that the natives of America have no original elements of &ldquo;civilization&rdquo;
-either from the early or late past, or in the present? The Cherokee have
-provided an answer. Contemporary literature has amassed the evidence nor
-alone in the series of volumes from the University of Oklahoma Press, but in
-prose and poetry known throughout the nation. It offers a compendious
-chapter in the epic of America. Each additional study adds a paragraph of
-importance to the whole.</p>
-<p>The study to follow contributes a detail of existing knowledge of the art-crafts
-of the Cherokee. As such it will prove to be another source reference
-to the Cherokee way of life in art and its expression in concrete form. The
-utilities have been and still are to Indians a means of finding outlet for their
-aesthetic urges. Art and crafts are merged in the output. Other fields lie
-open for further attempts to perform its functions in national life by issuing
-successive publications dealing with its cultural material, thus laying foundations
-for that basic teaching we fondly call Americanism.</p>

-<p>The association of root-runner basket forms in America would show a number
-of instances of use of a &ldquo;Rod&rdquo; as a one rod foundation for coiled baskets
-occurring originally in Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico and on the plains.<a class="fn" id="fr_1" href="#fn_1">[1]</a>
-This technologically simple form of basket building material has implications
-bearing upon the age and area theory that challenges attention on a wider
-scale. Apart from the coiling process, a single rod construction appears in the
-Southeast in wicker work. What conclusions a broader study of single rod
-basketry (to which class the root runner series belongs) in any of its constructional
-forms, whether in coiling or wicker work, would lead to is quite
-beyond the purpose of this article.</p>
-<p>It is the intent of the writer to record a simple phase of basketry technique in
-the southern middle Atlantic slope and the northern part of the south and
-southeast area, as it applies to the Cherokee of the North Carolina highlands
-and of Oklahoma. In these areal habitats the two subdivisions of the tribe
-make use of three diverse plant types, the use of which in basketry construction
-in some districts does not overlap or coincide. In Carolina an earlier
-root-runner style has either passed out of memory or never existed among the
-Cherokee Indians, but came in later through acculturative changes. As far as
-has been ascertained, all fine root runner fibers used in the making of Indian
-baskets belong to two family groups, the botanical names of which are Caprifoliceae
-and Crataegus.</p>
-<p>To the first family group belong:</p>
-<dl class="undent"><dt>Japanese Honeysuckle (Lonicera Japonica)</dt>
-<dt>A vine introduced into America from Asia around 1906.<a class="fn" id="fr_2" href="#fn_2">[2]</a></dt>
-<dt>Buckbrush (Symphoricarpos Orbiculatus)</dt>
-<dt>Also called Indian Currant and Coral Berry.</dt></dl>
-<p>To the second family belong:</p>
-<dl class="undent"><dt>Wild Hawthorne (Crataegus Crus Galli)</dt>
-<dt>The Yuki Indians of California made a basket out of the stems of a native honeysuckle (Lonicera Interrupta). It, however does not have fine root runners.<a class="fn" id="fr_3" href="#fn_3">[3]</a></dt></dl>

-<p>The Rappahannock Indians of Virginia
-make a basket of Japanese honeysuckle
-root runners of a wicker type
-weave which is crude in weaving
-technique in comparison with baskets
-from North Carolina. (Rappahannock
-of Virginia.) Quoting Dr. Speck, &ldquo;The
-art was revived by some of the women
-in 1922, when the Indian Association
-was formed. Susie and Lizzie Nelson,
-old Bob Nelson and other Rappahannock
-Indians made these baskets at
-that time. Chief Otto Nelson, his wife Susie, and Lizzie Nelson remember
-that when they were young about 1890, their grandmother Sallie Ronnie,
-who was then about 60 years old, had a honeysuckle sewing basket shaped
-like an oval bowl, similar in weave to the baskets mentioned above.</p>
-<p>&ldquo;There is a native local, variety of Red Honeysuckle (Lonicera sempervirens)
-in Virginia which is not a ground runner but clings for six feet or so to
-trees and fences; it is finer stemmed than the Japanese variety and Indian
-women of the Rappahannock tribe have agreed to weave with it. All honeysuckle
-runners are kept soaked in water to preserve their pliability for
-weaving. They can be gathered and woven at any time of the year if treated
-in this manner.&rdquo;</p>
-<p>As far as known no other fine root runner is used for basket weaving by the
-Indians of this state, although other fine root runners such as Devil&rsquo;s Shoestring
-and London Pride grow there. Comments on honeysuckle wicker-weave
-baskets among the Mattaponi Indians of Virginia are made by Dr.
-Frank Speck in his book &ldquo;At Mattaponi,&rdquo; in which he speaks of the girls
-making baskets of honeysuckle stems, meticulously neat and with a technique
-suspiciously European in detail. We cannot be too sure that something like
-this did not exist before as many references to baskets of various forms
-made in the early days are encountered.<a class="fn" id="fr_4" href="#fn_4">[4]</a> The Pamunkey Tribe, living on
-a reservation ten miles south of Mattaponi, have used honeysuckle runners
-for over twenty years. In both bands the details of form and weave are
-identical, and the historical circumstances may also be.</p>

-<p>The Cherokee Indians of North Carolina
-used Japanese honeysuckle in basket
-weaving as early as 1880, when it
-was introduced by a Cherokee woman
-named Arizona Blankenship who had
-been educated at Hampton Institute,
-Virginia. It is interesting to note that
-the Cherokee Agency Indian School
-was founded at Cherokee, North Carolina,
-that same year.</p>
-<p>In January, 1943, Dr. Speck made an extensive trip into the hill country
-around Cherokee, North Carolina, visiting the old conservative Cherokee
-Indians of that region. He learned from the old people that honeysuckle
-basket weaving was not an original Cherokee Indian art. Making inquiry
-into their history of basket weaving, he could find no evidence of their use
-of hawthorne (Crataegus) although it is native to that state, or any historical
-evidence of the use of any other fine root runners. It is possible, of
-course, that the Hawthorne runners could have been used by other Indian
-bands in other parts of the state but so far it is not known, notwithstanding
-the fact Dr. Speck has spent many years of study of Cherokee Indian basketry
-in North Carolina.<a class="fn" id="fr_5" href="#fn_5">[5]</a> Cane and oak splints were used chiefly by the Cherokee
-in basket weaving and the use of Japanese honeysuckle was undoubtedly a
-later addition to their culture. An illustration of one of the earliest known
-types of honeysuckle weave is shown in the Cherokee of North Carolina
-plate. This basket has no foundation to support the fine root runner fibers
-although most of their baskets made of honeysuckle runners do have
-foundations of oak splints. As far as is known no double weaving of fine
-root runner baskets was done by the Cherokee of this state.</p>

-<p>The Cherokee of Oklahoma used buckbrush
-(Symphoricarpos Orbiculatus)
-in making fine root runner baskets and
-it appears after careful study and extensive
-inquiry, that this type of basket
-weaving may have originated
-among the Indians of Oklahoma. This
-conclusion is based on many years of
-collecting baskets from Cherokee Indians
-in every part of the old Cherokee
-nation. Interviews with older basket-making
-women were held through interpreters
-and it was clearly established
-that basket making from honeysuckle
-was not known to them or to their mothers or grandmothers who had lived
-in Georgia and North Carolina before their removal in 1938 to Oklahoma.
-The only type of weaving known to them before coming to Oklahoma was
-the cane and oak-splint weaving. From such interviews these facts could be
-traced back to as early as 1850. They were certain that the earliest baskets
-made by their grandparents were out of buckbrush and oak splints; no cane
-or honeysuckle was used in the northern part of the Cherokee nation.</p>
-<p>In the Spavinaw hills country of the northern part of the Cherokee nation
-the Indians used only buckbrush runners as cane does not grow in this section.
-In the southern part of the nation, in the vicinity of Gore and Weber
-Falls, cane grows and is used almost exclusively in basket weaving. In the
-locality of Tahlequah and Stillwell both cane and buckbrush weaving is done.
-The Cherokee of this region make both a double and single wicker weave
-basket of buckbrush runners and no foundation is used in either type although
-each is strong and serviceable. All of their fine root runner baskets
-(buckbrush) are a wicker type of weave of unexcelled technique. The
-double weave basket made by Lucy Mouse (shown in the Oklahoma example)
-is a splendid specimen of fine weaving&mdash;a strong durable basket.
-The dye used in this basket is walnut stain from boiled walnut hulls.</p>
-<p>The buckbrush runners are pulled in the fall of the years and after drying
-two or three weeks are boiled to remove the bark. The fibers remain flexible
-enough for weaving all winter which is the basket weaving season.</p>
-<p>The shapes were formerly market baskets, fruit trays, egg baskets and storage
-baskets, some of which were used by them as long as fifty years ago. Twenty-five
-years ago vegetable dyes were used for coloring but today commercial
-dyes are largely used; the baskets are made, as a rule, for sale, and show
-considerable white influence.</p>

-<p>I was born in Dallas, Texas, on January 6, 1882.</p>
-<p>I first became interested in the art work of the Indians
-while working as a reporter for an Oklahoma daily
-newspaper in 1900, at which time I covered the opening
-for settlement of the Kiowa, Comanche and Apache Indian
-reservations in southwest Oklahoma. After two years
-of study (1903-1904) at the University of Oklahoma,
-I became a traveling salesman and remained in that profession
-until 1917 when I went into business for myself
-(retired from business in 1957). About 1918 I became
-actively interested in Indian pottery and basketry
-and started my collections. Since that time, Mrs. Field,
-my daughter Dorothy Field Maxwell (Mrs. Gilbert S.),
-and I have traveled more than one hundred and twenty
-five thousand miles collecting in the United States, Canada,
-Alaska, Mexico, Central and South America.</p>
-<p>To date (1964) we have spent 46 years in trying to
-collect authentic specimens of baskets made for actual
-use by all basket-making tribes (no tourist specimens
-are included). Intent upon maintaining the highest possible
-quality throughout the collection, I have always
-insisted upon acquiring the finest representative basket
-for its particular tribe or use.</p>
-<p>The collection is completely catalogued and photographed
-and has been given to the Philbrook Art Center
-of Tulsa, Oklahoma, where it is on exhibition. The collection
-has been rated by members of the Indian Arts
-and Crafts Board, and by members of other museums, as
-the most comprehensive in the United States for its
-beauty of specimens and unusual method of display.</p>

-of this license, apply to copying and distributing Project
-Gutenberg-tm electronic works to protect the PROJECT GUTENBERG-tm

-
-1.C. The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation ("the

-States. If an individual work is unprotected by copyright law in the
-United States and you are located in the United States, we do not
-claim a right to prevent you from copying, distributing, performing,
-displaying or creating derivative works based on the work as long as
-all references to Project Gutenberg are removed. Of course, we hope
-that you will support the Project Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting
-free access to electronic works by freely sharing Project Gutenberg-tm
-works in compliance with the terms of this agreement for keeping the
-Project Gutenberg-tm name associated with the work. You can easily
-comply with the terms of this agreement by keeping this work in the
-same format with its attached full Project Gutenberg-tm License when
-you share it without charge with others.
-
-1.D. The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern
-what you can do with this work. Copyright laws in most countries are
-in a constant state of change. If you are outside the United States,
-check the laws of your country in addition to the terms of this
-agreement before downloading, copying, displaying, performing,
-distributing or creating derivative works based on this work or any
-other Project Gutenberg-tm work. The Foundation makes no
-representations concerning the copyright status of any work in any
-country outside the United States.
-
-1.E. Unless you have removed all references to Project Gutenberg:
-
-1.E.1. The following sentence, with active links to, or other
-immediate access to, the full Project Gutenberg-tm License must appear
-prominently whenever any copy of a Project Gutenberg-tm work (any work
-on which the phrase "Project Gutenberg" appears, or with which the
-phrase "Project Gutenberg" is associated) is accessed, displayed,
-performed, viewed, copied or distributed:
-
- This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere in the United States and
- most other parts of the world at no cost and with almost no
- restrictions whatsoever. You may copy it, give it away or re-use it
- under the terms of the Project Gutenberg License included with this
- eBook or online at www.gutenberg.org. If you are not located in the
- United States, you'll have to check the laws of the country where you
- are located before using this ebook.
-
-1.E.2. If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is
-derived from texts not protected by U.S. copyright law (does not
-contain a notice indicating that it is posted with permission of the
-copyright holder), the work can be copied and distributed to anyone in
-the United States without paying any fees or charges. If you are
-redistributing or providing access to a work with the phrase "Project
-Gutenberg" associated with or appearing on the work, you must comply
-either with the requirements of paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 or
-obtain permission for the use of the work and the Project Gutenberg-tm
-trademark as set forth in paragraphs 1.E.8 or 1.E.9.
-
-1.E.3. If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is posted
-with the permission of the copyright holder, your use and distribution
-must comply with both paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 and any
-additional terms imposed by the copyright holder. Additional terms
-will be linked to the Project Gutenberg-tm License for all works
-posted with the permission of the copyright holder found at the
-beginning of this work.

-License terms from this work, or any files containing a part of this
-work or any other work associated with Project Gutenberg-tm.
-
-1.E.5. Do not copy, display, perform, distribute or redistribute this
-electronic work, or any part of this electronic work, without

-Gutenberg-tm License.
-
-1.E.6. You may convert to and distribute this work in any binary,

-other than "Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other format used in the official
-version posted on the official Project Gutenberg-tm web site
-(www.gutenberg.org), you must, at no additional cost, fee or expense
-to the user, provide a copy, a means of exporting a copy, or a means

- the use of Project Gutenberg-tm works calculated using the method
- you already use to calculate your applicable taxes. The fee is owed
- to the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm trademark, but he has
- agreed to donate royalties under this paragraph to the Project
- Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation. Royalty payments must be paid
- within 60 days following each date on which you prepare (or are
- legally required to prepare) your periodic tax returns. Royalty
- payments should be clearly marked as such and sent to the Project
- Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation at the address specified in
- Section 4, "Information about donations to the Project Gutenberg
- Literary Archive Foundation."
-
-* You provide a full refund of any money paid by a user who notifies
- you in writing (or by e-mail) within 30 days of receipt that s/he
- does not agree to the terms of the full Project Gutenberg-tm
- License. You must require such a user to return or destroy all
- copies of the works possessed in a physical medium and discontinue
- all use of and all access to other copies of Project Gutenberg-tm
- works.
-
-* You provide, in accordance with paragraph 1.F.3, a full refund of
- any money paid for a work or a replacement copy, if a defect in the
- electronic work is discovered and reported to you within 90 days of
- receipt of the work.

-
-1.E.9. If you wish to charge a fee or distribute a Project

-from both the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and The
-Project Gutenberg Trademark LLC, the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm
-trademark. Contact the Foundation as set forth in Section 3 below.
-
-1.F.
-
-1.F.1. Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
-effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
-works not protected by U.S. copyright law in creating the Project
-Gutenberg-tm collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm
-electronic works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may
-contain "Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate
-or corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other
-intellectual property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or
-other medium, a computer virus, or computer codes that damage or
-cannot be read by your equipment.
-
-1.F.2. LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
-of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
-Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
-Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
-liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
-fees. YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
-LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE
-PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH 1.F.3. YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE
-TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE
-LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR
-INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
-DAMAGE.
-
-1.F.3. LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a
-defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can
-receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
-written explanation to the person you received the work from. If you
-received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium
-with your written explanation. The person or entity that provided you
-with the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in
-lieu of a refund. If you received the work electronically, the person
-or entity providing it to you may choose to give you a second
-opportunity to receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund. If
-the second copy is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing
-without further opportunities to fix the problem.
-
-1.F.4. Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
-in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS', WITH NO
-OTHER WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT

-
-1.F.5. Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied
-warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of
-damages. If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement
-violates the law of the state applicable to this agreement, the
-agreement shall be interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or
-limitation permitted by the applicable state law. The invalidity or
-unenforceability of any provision of this agreement shall not void the
-remaining provisions.
-
-1.F.6. INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the
-trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone
-providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in
-accordance with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the
-production, promotion and distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm
-electronic works, harmless from all liability, costs and expenses,
-including legal fees, that arise directly or indirectly from any of
-the following which you do or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this
-or any Project Gutenberg-tm work, (b) alteration, modification, or
-additions or deletions to any Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any
-Defect you cause.
-
-Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
-electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
-computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It
-exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations
-from people in all walks of life.
-
-Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
-assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
-goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
-remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
-and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future
-generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see
-Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at
-www.gutenberg.org
-
-
-
-Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
-
-The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit
-501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
-state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
-Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
-number is 64-6221541. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent permitted by
-U.S. federal laws and your state's laws.

-
-Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
-Literary Archive Foundation
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
-spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
-increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
-freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
-array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
-($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
-status with the IRS.
-
-The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
-charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
-States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
-considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
-with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
-where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
-DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular
-state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
-have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
-against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
-approach us with offers to donate.
-
-International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
-any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
-outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
-
-Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
-methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
-ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To
-donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works.
-
-Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
-Gutenberg-tm concept of a library of electronic works that could be
-freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
-distributed Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of
-volunteer support.
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
-editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
