Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pomo Indian Baskets and Their Makers Fifty years ago the many wild, mountain-hemmed valleys of Lake and Mendocino counties were each the home of one or several small Indian tribes entirely independent of all others, and speaking a language at best only partly intelligible to their nearest neighbors. The Franciscan Fathers, who had gathered the tribes of the central and southern parts of California into the Missions, now California's most picturesque ruins, had never gained a hold on the secluded mountaineers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the time of its publication in 1908, Pomo Indian Basketry was the most complete and detailed study of a single Native American basketry tradition. The work, prepared as Samuel Barrett's doctoral dissertation, earned the author the first Ph.D. in anthropology at UC Berkeley. Among its contents are sections devoted to materials, techniques, forms, and designs. This edition is supplemented with two early articles, "Basket Designs of the Pomo Indians" by Barrett (1905) and "California Basketry and the Pomo" by his teacher Alfred Kroeber (1909). Sherrie Smith-Ferri's introduction reviews Barrett's early life and research and identifies the human sources of Barrett's collections and information--a community of talented Pomoan basket weavers. Sherrie Smith-Ferri (Dry Creek Pomo/Bodega Miwok) is a curator at the Grace Hudson Museum in Ukiah, California.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from How to Make Indian and Other Baskets: Indian Basketry, the Grand Canyon of the Colorado River in Arizona, the Indians of the Painted Desert Region, Travelers' Handbook to Southern California, Etc;, Etc Just now the making of Indian and other baskets is a fad. Like all other fads it will have its day and then die. But unlike many fads there is something in the making of baskets that will keep the art alive, when those who practised it merely as a fad have forgotten that they ever were interested in it. It is singularly appropriate that I, the son of my father, should write a treatise on basket making. The earliest remembrances of my life are connected with that art, as my father was a basket maker, not simply a trader in baskets, but personally a skilled workman himself. My oldest brother, too, learned the art and was a good workman. Well do I remember, as a child, a season when coal was dear and scarce, as during the recent Eastern coal strike. My father, always a man of originality, rose at once to meet the occasion, and made a mixture of coal dust and the thick ends or nubbins cut from the ends of new splints or weavers introduced into the coarse kinds of baskets.

This book was released on 2017-12-13 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Basketry Designs of the Indians of Northern California One of the earliest-noted and prime characteristics of the Indians of California is the great development among them of the art of basket-making. Not only did they excel in technique, in producing water-tight baskets of both the coiled and twined varieties, but also in the extent to which they developed the purely artistic side of basket-making in the elaboration of designs and methods of ornamentation. Carving and painting were, as far as we know, not numbered among the arts of this portion of the Pacific coast; pottery was unknown; and decoration in dress was, if we except the feather ornaments used at dances, as a rule, of the simplest sort in comparison with the elaborate and often profuse dec oration found among many of the Indians of the plains. The California Indians were, therefore, practically confined, for the expression of their artistic sense, to basketry alone; and possi bly this concentration of effort will afford a partial explanation, at least, of the great perfection to which the art was carried. But, while we find that basket-making and basketry design and ornamentation are characteristic of the California Indians as a whole, these arts were not developed to the same extent, or along the same lines, in all parts of the region.

Download or read book American Indian Basketry written by Otis Tufton Mason and published by Courier Corporation. This book was released on 1988-01-01 with total page 801 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The origins of basketry are lost in the mists of prehistory, but making baskets is certainly one of the oldest and most nearly universal crafts of mankind. In the Americas, basket artifacts found in caves in Utah have been dated at 7000 B.C., while twined baskets said to be at least 5,000 years old have been uncovered in Peru. In the American Southwest, an entire Indian culture (ca. 100–700 A.D.) is known as "Basket Maker" because of the distinctive baskets it produced. This exhaustive survey (two volumes in one) of American Indian basketry, perhaps the finest book ever published on the subject, documents basketmaking throughout the Americas — in Eastern North America, Alaska and the Pacific Northwest, Western Canada, Oregon, California and the Interior Basin, as well as Mexico, Central and South America. Spanning a wide range of indigenous cultures (Aleutian, Tlinkit, Shoshonean, Athapascam, etc.), the detailed, carefully researched discussions in this book offer a wealth of information about woven and coiled basketry, watertight basketry, materials, basketmaking techniques and preparation, ornamentation and symbolism, as well as the uses of baskets as receptacles, in preparing and serving food, for gleaning and milling, in mortuary customs, in religion and social life, in trapping, carrying water, and in many other areas of Indian life. An interesting and informative chapter on collectors and collections and the preservation of baskets, followed by a helpful biography, rounds out the book. In addition, the author, once Curator of Ethnology at the U.S. National Museum (part of the Smithsonian Institution), enhanced this encyclopedic study with over 450 excellent photographs and illustrations. For collectors, preservationists, anthropologists, students of crafts and culture, modern basketmakers, this is an indispensable reference — a massively rich source of information about baskets, the peoples who made them, how they were made, and their role in native American life and culture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Indian Basketry: With 360 Illustrations A few hundred years ago our own ancestors were aborigines, they wore skins for clothes; wove baskets; lived in wicker and skin huts or in caves; ate nuts, herbs, acorns, roots and depended upon the fortunes of the chase for their meats, just as the Amerind of the present and past generations are doing and have done. Hence, as Indian baskets are woven by human beings, akin to ourselves, and are used by them in a variety of relations of intensely human interest, we are studying humanity under its earliest and simplest phases, such phases as were probably manifested in our own ancestral history -when we intelligently study Indian Basketry.

This book was released on 2018-02 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Poetry and Symbolism of Indian Basketry There is little doubt but that basket-weaving was Simultaneously discovered and developed in many different lands, but in no country has it reached SO high a state Of development as on the Western Coast of North America. The finest baskets of the world have been made by the Pomas, the Gualalas, the Tulares, the Monos, the Shoshones, the Indians of the Kern River, and the Aleuts Of Alaska. Much of aboriginal life is revealed in a study of the uses of Indian Baskets, for to these primitive people, unacquainted with vessels made of wood, glass, iron, brass, or of any of the metals, the basket was called upon to serve practically every purpose. It was used at wed dings, dances, medicine, and other ceremonies. The baby's cradle, the mother's treasure-basket, the family mush-bowl, the jars for stor ing and carrying water, the basket seed - winnowers, the basket drums. The fans for striking seed into the carrying-baskets, the gambling plaques, are but a few of the thousand and one uses to which the basket is placed.
