Tonelli 



[Manuscript notes.] 

 These notes are largely drawii upon by Dr. Co- 

 jazzi ((1. v.). Prof. Tonelli made extensive and 

 careful researches, especially among the Onasand 

 Alacaluf, during a recent visit to Fuegia. In 

 addition he gathered much valuable cultural and 

 linguistic material from the Salesian mission- 

 aries and the Bridges brothers. 



Topinard, Paul 



[( )bserv;ilii)nH on the llagenbock 

 group of Aluculuf.] (In BiiU. kSoc. 

 d'anthr. de Pam, 1881, 3d ser. iv, 774- 

 782.) 



Some interesting notes, cliiefly on the physical 

 appearance and material culture of the Alacaluf, 

 based on observation of the native group ex- 

 hibited at Paris. On p. 775 one Alacalufan word. 



Townsend, Charles Haskins 



A naturalist in Iho Straits of Magel- 

 lan. (In Pop. scL monthly, New York, 

 July, 1910, Lxxvii, 5-18.) 



Contains (pp. 9-12) an unimportant descrip- 

 tion of Alacaluf met casually. The estimate of 

 40 to r)0 thousand as the population of Fuegia 50 

 years ago is much too high.

Contains a review (x, i)t. 29, pp. 2l-2t>) of pre- 

 viously pnl)lished studies in Fuegian somatology , 

 and the writer's own description and measure- 

 ments (ibid., pp. 17-20; vol. xvi, pt. 47, passim) 

 of the Fuegian skeletal remains obtained at 

 Punia Arenas by the Challrngcr expedition from 

 Don Diego Dublc Almeida, then governor of the 

 Chilean colony. These remains consisted of 4 

 crania (2 c?, 19, and 1 proliably 9) and some 

 other l)ones. Plate I, figures 5-6; plate vi, fig- 

 ure 2.

 natives, Maccarthy, vol. x; Germ, 

 ditto, Weimar, 1820; Engl, ditto, 1820 

 (in Sir Rich. Phillips, New voyages, 

 London, 1819-1823, vol. ii, no. 5, ac- 

 cording to Sabin, nos. 16772, 62509). 



One of the most important extant sources for 

 .\laoalufan culture, particularly material cul- 

 ture. See especially the very detailed and care- 

 ful description on pp. 337-:3.55 of the Port Famine 

 and Port GaUant Alacaluf with whom the de 

 Cdrdoba expedition had two and a half months 

 of contact in the early part of 1786. A few other 

 notes passim, pp. 34-36, 41-42, 47-48.

 Santa Maria de la Cabeza, que contiene 

 el de los paqucbotes Santa Casilda y 

 Santa Euhilia para completar el rccono- 

 cimiento del Estrecho en los anos de 

 1788 y 1789, Madrid, 1793; Engl, and 

 Germ, as above (the Germ, summary, 

 according to the title page a tr. of the 

 Engl., gives no dates; it is based chiefly 

 on the first expedition). 



A valuable source for Alacalufan culture, but 

 not so important as the preceding work . Chiefly 

 of interest for the description (pp. 58-60) of the 

 plank-boat-using Indians met west of Cape Up- 

 riglit in Jan., 1789. See also the description (pp. 

 24-29), quoted from the notes of Lieut. Ciriaco de 

 Cevallos, chiefly of the natives met in Dec, 1788, 

 between Capes St. Isidore and Froward. On 

 pp. 27-28 are 3 native words, ok-si, "give," 

 pissiH, "son," "child," "boy," and at times 

 "man," fco/j, "future," and a grammatical note: 

 " No varian las tenninaciones de los verbos, ni 

 distingucn do otro modo los tiempos." This 

 Alacalufan linguistic material is of very doubtful 

 value.

Contains (pp. 573-578) data that have a more 

 or less important bearing on the question of 

 Chonoan linguistic relationships.
