Provenance
Dr. Frank T. Siebert, Jr. was a linguist and amateur anthropologist who collected over 350 Native American objects over his lifetime. This important collection, though including several fine Plains Indian items, emphasizes the East Coast, and especially the Penobscot area. Dr. Siebert acquired his collection mostly from friends and contacts in the villages he visited while working to document Algonquian languages. Because of these personal connections, many of his items have richly detailed histories. A rare Penobscot womans pointed cap highlights the collection. Only a handful of Penobscot womans caps are in existence, and most of them are in European or British Museums; this particular cap is one of the finest and earliest examples. Photos in the collection, most likely taken by Dr. Siebert himself, show his friend, Francis Stanislaus, wearing a native tanned coat with a beautiful beaded and silk appliqu collar and cuffs, all of which are featured in the collection. Trade silver material is also well represented by three brooches and a hat band, or crown. Dr. Sieberts daughter, Stephanie Finger, placed the collection on long-term loan to the Abbe Museum in Bar Harbor, Maine, in 2002. Items from the collection were also displayed in the Uncommon Threads exhibition at the Maine State Museum, one of the first exhibits of this type of material in the country. Dr. Siebert graduated from Haverford College, earned a medical degree at Pennsylvania State in Pathology, and then went on to study linguisitics for many years with professors at Yale, Columbia, and the Institute of Linguistics. In 1964, he retired to Old Town, Maine, to dedicate his life to researching the dying Penobscot language and writing a Penobscot-English dictionary. Although he focused much of his time and effort on preserving the language of the Penobscot tribe, Dr. Siebert also took stewardship of many of the finest examples of textiles and decorative arts that this region had to offer. His is one of the most extensive collections of Penobscot material known.
Joseph Aurelian Cornet (1919-2004) Lots 53, 56, 74, 108-110 Cornet was a noted Belgian scholar of the art of the Congo, as well as a member of the Christina Brothers. From 1970-1987 he was the Director of the Institute des Musees nationaux du Congo (after 1971, Du Zaire), and taught at the Universite Lovanium in Kinshasa, where he lived. His extraordinarily meticulous, photo-illustrated notebooks representing his extensive ethnographic research are now at the library of Loyola University New Orleans. Cornet had a particular interest in the arts of Kuba Kingdom. He returned to Belgium in 1992, but continued his research and writing. Well-known publications included Art of Africa: treasures of the Congo (Phaidon, 1971), Art from Zaire LArt Du Zaire: 100 Masterworks from National Collection (New York, African-American Institute, 1975), A Survey of Zairian Art: The Bronson Collection (Raleigh, North Carolina, Museum of Art, 1978), and Art Royal Kuba (Milano, Edizioni Sipiel, 1982).
Mrs. Luke C. Walker Lots 171, 173, 224, 237, 239, 505, 542 Sophia Eymer was born in Hamburg, Germany, in 1846 and moved with her family to Kentucky when she was two years old. She followed her brother west to Dakota Territory in 1873. In 1874, she moved to the Yankton reservation to teach at one of the first day schools established on the reservation. She married Luke C. Walker, the first full-blooded Sioux Indian to be ordained at the ministry by the Episcopal Church, in 1875. Mrs. Walker taught and worked as a missionary with her husband at White Swan and then Choteau Creek on the Yankton reservation, and in 1878 they moved onto the Yankton reservation. Later in 1878 they moved to the Brule agency among the Wild Tribe who were still living in buffalo-hide tepees. She helped establish the first schools on the lower Brule reservation and with her husband lived and worked with the Sioux Indians for the next 53 years.

276. Historic Bonaventure Hatchet, Penobscot, the spiked cast iron head dates to the late 17th century, the wood handle with pyro-engraved track (?) marks and hide bindings to the 19th century, handle lg. 17, blade lg. 6 3/4 in. Note: The present Penobscot example was bequeathed to me by Penobscot Lewis Lolar at the time of his death on March 17, 1935. Lolar was a direct descendant of the famous Penoscot war-chief Loron (alias Saaguarum) during the intercolonial wars, and the hatchet had been handed down in the family. It is made of cast iron, and is considerably patinated and corroded by time. The hatchet head measures 6-3/4 x 2-7/16 x 7/16 inches and is illustrated in the accompanying photograph. The haft or handle is, of course, modern, having been replaced in the nineteenth century. This weapon is light enough to be thrown efficiently, and strong and sharp enough to render a severe cutting blow. The spike served another purpose. If wielded forcefully in hand-to-hand combat, the spike could be thrust between the ribs of an opponent, readily puncture the pleura, and cause a lung collapse or pneumothorax. This would produce a form of shock in the victim and render him hors de combat. This hatchet of French manufacture was designed by the Simon-Pierre Denys de Bonaventure (1659-1711), a French naval officer. He had them cast in Paris in 1695 and had about 250 of them made. Bonaventure brought them to Acadia in the Envieux in the spring of 1696, and about 40 of 50 hatchets were distributed to the Maliseets on the Saint John River by Governor Robinau de Villebon, and 200 were given to the Penobscots in May 1696 by Bonaventure at Pentagoet (modern Castine, Maine). These distributions were in preparation for the assault by the French and Indian forces on the English stronghold, Fort William Henry, at present Pemaquid...This hatchet is a genuine relic of the seventeenth century warfare in northeastern North America and perhaps the only one for which a detailed history can be sketched. A complete history of this hatchet by Dr. Siebert will be included with the lot. $8,000-12,000
