Pictures / photos / images of some MASKS and headdresses in the African tribal, antique, ritual, ethnographic, classical, "primitive" art collection (of variable age, artistic quality, and degree of authenticity) Many African societies see masks as mediators between the living world and the supernatural world of the dead, ancestors and other entities. Masks became and still become the attribute of a dressed up dancer who gave it life and word at the time of ceremonies. In producing a mask, a sculptor's aim is to depict a person's psychological and moral characteristics, rather than provide a portrait. The sculptor begins by cutting a piece of wood and leaving it to dry in the sun; if it cracks, it cannot be used for a mask. African sculptors see wood as a complex living material and believe each piece can add its own feature to their work. Having made certain the wood is suitable, the sculptor begins, using an azde to carve the main features, a chisel to work on details and a rough leaf to sand the piece. He then paints the mask with pigments such as charcoal (to give a black colour), powders made from vegetable matter or trees (for ochre/earth tones) or mineral powders like clay (to give a white colour).

Igor Kopytoff Professor of Anthropology, University of Pennsylvania Contact Information Major Research Interests I am a general practitioner in cultural anthropology, with an ethnographic focus on Africa and with some past research in northern Asia. More specifically, my interests, research, and publications deal with social structure, political organization, and religion - and the process of transformation in them. I have also worked and published on slavery as a general cultural phenomenon, with a special interest in indigenous slavery in Africa as a culture-historical phenomenon. I have done fieldwork in the Congo, Cameroon, and the Ivory Coast. Contact Information IGOR KOPYTOFF Professor of Anthropology Dept.of Anthropology University of Pennsylvania Philadelphia.

Abstracts of Talks: 2002 Underwater Archeology The Origin of Life: How Molecules Begin to Cooperatey Boomerangs Boomerangs, which are basically curved, aerodynamically enhanced sticks, have long been in use as hunting tools in many countries (including India). But the returning boomerang, used as an amusing toy by Australian aboriginals, has attracted much attention for nearly two centuries. It is perhaps best seen as a flying top that uses aerodynamic and gyroscopic forces for 'steering' it back to the thrower. A small collection of boomerangs acquired during visits to Australia will be on display. Ecotourism: Emerging trends and concerns The Language of the Dancing Bees Honeybees live in large colonies consisting of tens of thousands of worker bees, a few drones and a single queen. The older worker bees specialize in surveying the environment of the colony for nectar, pollen, water and propolis. Upon finding a profitable resource, worker bees return to their colonies and recruit other workers for transporting the discovered material to the nest. To do so, honeybees use a dance language. Being a system of communication involving arbitrary symbolic conventions, the honey bee dance language is thought to be closer to human language than anything else ever used by animals. In this talk I will introduce the honeybees, describe the properties of their dance language and review recent research aimed at convincing skeptics that honey bees do indeed use the information contained in the dance language to locate food and other resources.

journal home article topics list of articles mission statement ... bookstore Book Search: Conjur Craft: Hoodoo, Rootwork and Conjuring for the 21st Century Date: By: Stephanie Rose Bird print send to a friend Hoodoo History Once upon a time, we were Africans, involved in a unique lexicon of beliefs, lore, stories, and customs designed to help integrate us into an environment filled with plants, animals, elements, and a complex array of spirits. With the advent of slavery, those who had stayed the longest severed the physical bond with the Motherland, but like seeds lifted from a flower by wind, we found fertile ground in distant lands. The freshly sown seeds took strongest hold in sunny climes reminiscent of our Motherland. Separated physically, we remained united as brothers and sisters in spirit. The various hybrids of traditional African-based religions continue to thrive in coastal Brazil, the Dominican Republic, and Cuba in the form of Candomble, Shango, Lucumi, Umbanda, and Santeria. In Louisiana and Haiti, our spirituality thrives in the form of Vodoun. In the southern United States, Hoodoo took root in Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia, Florida, North Carolina, and South Carolina. Hoodoo was established during slavery using the types of plants available in the United States. Our knowledge of African herbalism was enhanced through the generosity of Native American tribes such as the Cherokee, Chickasaw, Chocktaw, and Seminole who understood our suffering intimately. Many Black Indians were the result of this interchange. The proof to this is within our recipes, appearance, and of course within Hoodoo.

Understanding Narrative The Praise Song Cultural Borrowing Objects of Power ... In and Out of Context The second part of this introductory essay consists of conversations between the authors. Bourgeois and Rodolitz have team-taught a web-based course on this subject for more than five years utilizing a dialogue medium that lends itself to immediacy and informality. Essays in the usual sense speak TO the reader; dialogue, however, allows the reader to participate, if only in an imaginary sense. Additionally, in the medium of dialogue, the evolution of thought is more apparent than in an edited essay. Often, the journey to a conclusion is as important as the conclusion itself. The reader is encouraged to join in this ongoing exploration. AB: Why don't we begin by considering a group of related objects, not necessarily related by culture but by function?

With the Spirit of Reformation, What Else are We Waiting for? (From the East Kalimantan Dayak Anthem) I. Overview In the closing weeks of 1999, the Bumi Senyiur , a luxury hotel in Samarinda, East Kalimantan, hosted a long-anticipated assembly, the “Convention of the East Kalimantan Dayak Association.” “Dayak” is a term that refers generically to the indigenous peoples of Indonesian Borneo; “East Kalimantan” is one of four Indonesian provinces on that island. Shortly past daybreak on opening morning, convention attendees began arriving by car, motorcycle, and public mini-van. They gathered in the parking lot beneath a banner that read “Dayak People of East Kalimantan Awaken and Unify to Engender a Prosperous Future.” Many wore Western-style suits and ties, others sported batik shirts in local motifs of stylized dog-heads or

35. HISTORICAL BACKGROUND: History And Prehistory Of Mentawai At around 4000 BCE a migration of indigenous peoples began out of the island of Coronese, S. (1986) Kebudayaan suku Mentawai. Jakarta Grafidian Jaya. http://www.mentawai.org/histbackgr.htm

HOME PAGE: THE ANTHROPOLOGY OF THE MENTAWAI ISLANDS HISTORICAL BACKGROUND: History and Prehistory of the Mentawai Islands History In much of the information currently available in the popular literature dealing with the Mentawai islands, that is information published in cyberspace as well as in travelogues, the prevailing perception is that the local people (and here they are usually referring to the inhabitants of Siberut) have been isolated through the ages and have only just been "discovered" by outsiders. This is better interpreted as western sojourners having the attitude that since they themselves only found out about this part of the world and its inhabitants recently, then it can only be the case that these people have been known to the "outside" world for a short period of time. Let me dispel this myth in two ways. I will firstly briefly indicate the degree of interaction that the islanders have had with the world beyond their shores dating from the first colonial contacts. I will subsequently briefly deal with the period preceding this, the pre -historical period.
