Photographs and brief essays on "Paleoasiatic tribes of the hills of Uryankai" and "The Manegher" | 1924 | AMsS, 4p.; 25 photographs; 2 sketches | 36 | |
This item contains short ethnographic manuscripts (4 p. total, likely unpublished) by Bogoras, based upon a scant published notes concerning D. K. Solovyev's 1913 expedition to the Amur River studying Evenki people, and his 1915-1916 expedition to the Sayan Mountains that led to the creation of the Sayan nature reserve, the first in the country. Titles of the manuscripts are "Paleoasiatic tribes of the hills of Uryankai" (describing Soyot and Karagass (Tofa?) peoples), and "The Manegher" (манегры, Evenki). The manuscripts mention intent to be published alongside sets of photographs, some "borrowed" from the collection of the Sayan expedition. The manuscript also mentions 950 specimens from the expeditions, of which 400 went to "the Russian Museum in Leningrad" (Saint Petersburg), and 200 photographs and 1500 meters of film reel that did not go to Leningrad. Three sets of photographs accompany the manuscripts, likely including images produced by Solovyev's expeditions, though dates and places have not been verified: 6 photographs and 2 sketches are labeled "Asiatic Eskimo" (Siberian Yupik?), in a folder indicating the Bureau of American Ethnology as a publication destination; 12 large photographic prints of Soyot and Karagass (Tofa?) people; and 7 small photographic prints of Karagass and Manegher (манегры, Evenki) people, one person identified as "Khoibo Maniagit, nearly 100 years old".

Lexicon in Luganda (Kiganda) | n.d. | ca. 1500 p. | Af.1 | |
Lexicon of the Luganda language. According to Morris Swadesh in a note included from 1965, slips refer to pages in "The Customs of the Baganda" by Apolo Kagwa (ed.

It is possible that this is instead based on the original publication in Luganda by Apolo Kagwa, originally in 1918, "Ekitabo kye mpisa za Baganda". Author of the slips is unidentified. Slips mark tone and occasional syllabic boundaries, but little is translated into English. Personal Name(s): Kagwa, Apolo | ||||

Ethiopic and Cherokee syllabaries -- a case of parallelism | n.d. | TMs, 8L. | I2.1 | |
A formal paper with MS. corrections.

Phonetic equivalences of the two syllabaries are arranged tabularly at the end.

Maps of Vancouver Island and mainland, with Kwakiutl place names | circa 1920s-1930s | Maps, 5 items | W1a.11 | |
Contains 3 whole maps and 1 additional map in two panel fragments. One map is hand-drawn on blueprint paper and corresponds to a portion of Map 21, "Garden Beds of the Nimkish" in Boas's "Geographical names of the Kwakiutl Indians" (1934). There are two copies of the 1887 Dawson geological map of Vancouver Island ("Geological and Natural History Survey of Canada." By George M. Dawson, D.S., F.G.S. First Edition, 1887. Scale 1:506,880.). Each of the two copies has unique handwritten annotations, circa 1920s by George Hunt, of Kwakwaka'wakw place names, or numbers corresponding to some of the places names listed in "Geographical Names of the Kwakiutl Indians," circa 1920s. One of these maps includes a detailed view of Nimpkish Lake with annotated place names. The fourth map consists of two panel fragments and smaller individual fragments from an unidentified larger printed map. One panel corresponds to the area running roughtly from Courtenay to Campbell River on the eastern coast of Vancouver Island and contatins no annotations. The other corresponds to the area of roughly the northern half of Bute Inlet and the northern half of Knight Inlet, with Hunt's place name annotations only in the Knight Inlet area. Some of the annotations are cut off at the edge of this fragment. Additional small fragments contain some highly cut-off annotations. One of these can be matched to a central section of Knight Inlet, and another to the area of Mt. Everard, west of the north end of Knight Inlet.

Boas, Franz, 1858-1942.
United States. Navy Hydrographic Office.
Hand-annotated map of the southern part of Hecate Strait area, British Columbia, Canada | 1918; circa 1923 | Maps, 2 items | AN1 | |
Printed map later hand-annotated by Franz Boas. "Southern Part of Hecate Strait" map published by the U.S. Navy Hydrographic Office, 26th edition, 1918. Hand annotations made by Franz Boas, most likely in or near 1923, when he visited Bella Bella. Earlier cataloging of this map incorrectly titled it as a "Linguistic map" and did not note that its annotations were by Boas. Boas's hand annotations in red pen reflect his attempts to understand the territories and associated group names of indigenous peoples of the area. Most of the names he notes are "bands" or nations associated with larger cultural groups, including Tsimshian, Heiltsuk ("Bella Bella"), Nuxalk ("Bella Coola"), Wuikinuxv ("Ooweekeno"), and Kwakwaka'wakw (specifically Gwa'sala). The map also includes many Indigenous place names in red pen or often faint pencil. Item includes a second map of same area with similar data, but smaller in scale.
