BIBLIOGRAPHY OF TRIBES OF TIERRA DEL FUEGO 



117 



Osborne, Thomas, cd. 



A collection of voyages and travels, 

 2 vols., London, 1745. 



Contains (n, 433-478) Fletcher's World en- 

 compassed. 



O'SulIivan, D. R. 



Tierra del Fuego. (In Fortnightly 

 review, London, Jan., 1893, Lix, n. s. 

 Liii, 36-53.) 



Contains (pp. 45-53) quite an extensive account 

 of the Fuegian Indians. This account is based 

 on personal observation during a two months' 

 enforced sojourn in the Strait opposite Port 

 Famine and a subsequent cruise through south- 

 em and western Fuegia, on information ob- 

 tained from a German sea captain who had spent 

 20 years in the archipelago and on Admiral Fitz- 

 Roy's narrative. The description is good, but 

 needs to be used with caution, as the writer does 

 not distinguish sufBciently between the various 

 tribes, and repeats some of Admiral Fitz-Roy"s 

 less dependable statements. 



Outes, Felix F. 



(fl) La edad de la piedra en Pata- 

 gonia: Estudio de arqueologia compa- 

 rada. (In Anales Museo nac, Buenoa 

 Aires, 1905, 3d ser. v, 203-575.) 



A comprehensive description, classification, 

 and discussion of Patagonian stone artifacts, an- 

 cient and recent, preceded by a quite full accoimt 

 of earlier Patagonian culture in all its other 

 phases. While this splendid monograph touches 

 only incidentally on the Fuegians (cf. pp. 268- 

 270, 397-398, 412, 427), it is invaluable for the study 

 of the cultural relations of the Fuegians, in par- 

 ticular of the Onas, to the earlier Patagonians. 



(6) Instrumentos modernos de los 

 Onas. (Ibid., 1906, 3d ser. vi, 287- 

 296.) 



An excellent description of some modem Ona 

 implements and arms, showing the substitution 

 of iron and glass for shell and stone. 8 illustra- 

 tions. 5 Ona words from Mr. Lucas Bridges. 



(c) Comunicacion preliminar sobre 

 los resultados antropologicos de mi pri- 

 mer viaje a Chile. (In La Universidad 

 nac. de La Plata en el IV° Congr. cient. 

 [1° Pan-amer.], Buenos Aires, 1909, pp. 

 216-221; repr. ibid., 1909.) 



An important contribution to Chonoan and 

 Fuegian somatology. Contains (p. 219) the 

 measurements of 2 Chono calvaria, 1 (f and 1 ? , 

 from Puerto Lobos, in the Guaitecas Islands. 

 Dr. Outes also examined 9 Alacaluf (2 men and 

 7 women) and 14 Onas (3 men and 11 women) at 

 Dawson Island Mission, obtaining stature and 

 cranial measurements and color of skin and iris 

 (pp. 220-221). Dr. Outes promised a fuller study 

 of the 2 Chono calvaria. 



(d) and Bruch, Carlos 



Outes, Felix F. — Continued 



Los aborigenes de la Republica Ar- 

 gentina, Buenos Aires, 1910. 



Contains (pp. 130-141) one of the best, if not 

 the best, extant summarized account of Yahgan 

 and Onan cultmal anthropology. 16 excellent 

 photos, illustrating environment, physical tj-pes, 

 and artifacts. 



(e) and Brach, Carlos 



Cuadros mural es "Las viejas razas 

 argentinas," with Texto explicative, 

 Buenos Aires, 1910. 



The charts are intended for school use, the te.xt 

 for the guidance of teachers. The charts and 

 text contain, respectively, nearly the same illus- 

 trations enlarged and the same text as "Los 

 aborigenes." 



Dr. Outes, in addition to his visit to Fuegia in 

 1908, has had the opportunity for closely study- 

 ing an abimdance of museiun material. It need 

 hardly be added that his works, even those in- 

 tended for general and school use, are written in 

 accordance with the best anthropological tra- 

 ditions.
