Bollinger 



Ueber die Feuerlander. (In Cor- 

 resp.-Blatt Deutsch. Ges. f. Anthr. 

 u. s. w., Miinchen, Apr. 1884, xv, 25-27.) 



A r^sumS of Dr. Seitz's article in Virchow's 

 A rchiv, vol. xci. 



Borgatello, Magglorlno 



Vocabulario comparativo Alacaluf, 

 Ona, Tehuelce. MS. 



An extensive and important vocabulary, the 

 Alacaluf section of which is published in Dr. Co- 

 jazzi's work (pp. 125-140). (Cf. also ibid., pp. 16- 

 17.) Father Borgatello has spent many years 

 among the eastern Fuegians. Dr. Cojazzi writes 

 me under date of March 2.5, 1915, as follows: 

 " Father Borgatello gathered the Alacaluf vocab- 

 ulary by questioning patiently the children and 

 adults of the mission of S. Raffaele on Dawson 

 Island, where there were numerous Alacaluf. 

 ... lie does not speak their language fluently, 

 but knows it fairly well, as does also a lay brother 

 named Juan Xikora. The latter can speak Ala- 

 caluf, although with a little dilhculty." Dr. 

 Cojazzi adds that the natives speak Spanish, and 

 that Brother Xikora assisted Father Borgatello 

 in gathering the vocabulary. The list given in 

 Dr. Cojazzi's book is the most e.xtensive of the 

 Alacaluf tongue thus far published; it comprises 

 455 words and 137 sentences, phrases, and pro- 

 noims. 



Bossi, Bartolome 



(a) Viaje descriptive de Montevideo 

 a Valparaiso, Santiago de Chile, 1874, 

 54 pp. (Reference from Anrique, pp. 

 576-577.) 



(6) El vapor Charrua en el Paclfico y 

 regiones magallanicas, Buenos Aires, 

 1880, 74 pp. (Reference from Anrique, 

 p. 577.) 



(c) Esploracion de la Tierra del 

 Fuego con el vapor oriental Charrua, 

 Montevideo, 1882, 59 pp. (Reference 

 iromPet. Mitt.. 1882, xxviii, 393.) 



The brochure mentioned in Boll. Soc. geogr. 

 ital., 1883, p. 941, is seemingly an Italian transla- 

 tion of the preceding. 



The last work, chiefly of hydrographical and 

 geological interest, is an account of a two months' 

 trip in Mar.-Apr., 1882 (Pet. Mitt., loc. cit.). 

 Capt. Bossi's contributions to Fuegian anthro- 

 pology are not, it seems, important. 



Bougainville, Louis Antoine de 



Voyage autour du monde, par la 

 fregate du roi la Boudeuse, et la flute 

 I'Etoile; en 1766, 1767, 1768 & 1769, 

 2d enlarged ed., 2 vols., Paris, 1772;

Bougainville, Louis Antoine de— Contd. 

 Prevost, vol. xx; Engl. tr. by J. R. 

 Forster, London, 1772; Dutch tr., 

 Dordrecht, 1772 (Tiele, 6, p. 45, no^ 

 177); abstr., Henry, vol. iv; descrip- 

 tion of Pecherais in Hatin. 



Contains (i, 289-303) the well-known accoimt 

 . of the Pecherais (Alacaluf) met at Port Gallant 

 in 1768. The description of the native medicine- 

 man and his methods on pp. 297-302 is especially 

 valuable. A few unimportant notes passim, 

 I, 78-80, 276. 



Bourne, Benjamin Franklin 



The captive in Patagonia; or Life 

 among the giants, Boston, 1853; Lon- 

 don, 1853. 



Unimportant for Fuegian anthropology. 

 Contains nothing e.xcept (pp. 204-205 of Boston 

 ed.) a mere mention of some Canoe Indians seen 

 at a distance, and (p. 148 of Boston ed.; p. 107 of 

 London ed.) a statement that the author was told 

 by a person met at the Chilean penal settlement 

 that the Fuegians used poisoned arrows. This 

 error has recently been revived by Mr. H. Hes- 

 keth Prichard (q. v.). 



Bove, Giacomo

 Terra del Fuoco. (In Nuova antologia

 Australi, Geneva, 1883, 150 pp. (Ref- 

 erence from Arch, per Vantrop. e I'etnol., 

 Firenze, 1882, xii, 287-299, which re- 

 prints in full the somatological and cul- 

 tural sections.) 



The four preceding papers contain a very im- 

 portant contribution to our knowledge of Yahgan 

 culture and give a few good notes passim on Ala- 

 calufan and Onan culture. The cultural sec- 

 tions in a, b, and d are identical word for word; 

 that in c is slightly abbreviated and summarized . 

 Stature measurements of 33 Yahgans are given 

 in 6 (p. 144), in c (p. 166), and in d, Arch, reprint 

 (p. 289). A vocabulary of 171 words in Yahgan 

 is given in 6 (pp. 14.5-147), and the same vocabu- 

 lary, with 16 additional words, in c (pp. 161-165). 

 Ethnological map in b, c, and probably in d.
