The work is done by hand. Heavy fringe at one end and several [six] bands of color formed by interlacing a strip of old [trade] blanket stuff with the stitches. Old specimen.

Antiquity 85: 1418-1432. http://antiquity.ac.uk/ant/085/ant0851418.htm . Identified there as a plain twill-woven ceremonial-type blanket of Mountain goat hair (no Salish wool or woolly dog hair was identified). The collector for E311257 is unknown.

Dogs and People in Social, Working, Economic or Symbolic Interaction. Proceeding of the 9th ICAZ Conference, Durham 2002. Oxbow Books, Oxford. See pp. 4-5 where it is noted that "James Teit was the principal collector of British Columbia antiquities for the Smithsonian Institution as well as the American Museum of Natural History in the early 20th century (Teit, J. A. 1930. The Salishan Tribes of the Western Plateaus. Fortyfifth Annual Report of the Bureau of American Ethnology, 1927-28, 23-396. Washington, D.C.). If the Smithsonian acquired E311257 from Teit it could very well have been a product of the Cowichan people who live near Duncan on Vancouver Island. The term "Cowichan" has long been used in the Pacific Northwest as a generic term for all Coast Salish style knitting and weavings, however. 18 Jul 2018 Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context http://dp.la/api/items/e79aec5cda1af2f12d259ff83eee6c02 Title A name given to the resource Blanket Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived Smithsonian Institution Subject The topic of the resource Native Americans Ethnology Indians of North America Anthropology Cowichan Indians Bureau Of American Ethnology Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1919-Nov-25 Type The nature or genre of the resource image References A related resource that is referenced, cited, or otherwise pointed to by the described resource. http://collections.si.edu/search/results.htm?q=record_ID%3Anmnhanthropology_8389255&repo=DPLA
