Archive: rare view of tribal history at Smithsonian
(Continued from page 1)
The archives collec-
tion even includes pre-
served roots, herbs and
other foods, such as a
kind of biscuit.
The War m Springs
team was able to give the
museum staff the names
and background on these
items.
They photographed
as many objects as they
could, and the museum
staff made a video of
the occasion. This
project was made pos-
sible
through
a
Smithsonian Recovering
Voices grant.
