THIS COLLECTION IS CURRENTLY BEING PROCESSED. THE INVENTORY OF CONTENTS IS IN PROCESS, AS IS THE ORGANIZATION OF THE COLLECTION. There are notes, transcriptions, essays, etc., on the language and customs of several Indian tribes. There are numerous vocabularies, dictionaries, and grammatical notes on the Ho-Chunk, Patwin, and Huave tribes, and some items on the Fox, Tukudh, Pomo, Wappo, and Wintu; 79 notebooks, in English and Ho-Chunk, on myths, legends, stories, customs, dances, religious observances, costume, etc., of the Ho-Chunk, with some on the Ottawa and Ojibwa; notes on Ho-Chunk history; 2 boxes of Ho-Chunk phonetic texts; and significant material on Mexican Indians (Zapotec). Some of the items are typed copies of Radin's published studies.

Background note

Anthropologist Paul Radin researched the language and folklore of North American and Mexican Indians, the Ho-Chunk, Ojibwe, Ottawa, Huave, and Zapotec in particular.

Scope and content

Collected while Radin worked for the Geological Survey of Canada, the bulk of the drawings are by Native American consultant Miskwanda. The images include face painting, hunting and fishing equipment, diagrams of dances and games, musical instruments, dwellings and clothes. Of note, original pencil sketch maps of a battle between the Ottawa and Mackado tribes and ink sketches of feather head-dress arrangements in war and in peace.
