FIFTY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT O 



During the month, spent in the office Dr. Roberts also worked on 

 manuscripts detailing the results of archeological work conducted 

 in Arizona and at Shiloh National Military Park, Tenn. 



From July to October 1934, Dr. W. D. Strong, ethnologist, was 

 in Washington working with the collections made in Spanish Hon- 

 duras during the preceding years. During the year a report on one 

 phase of this work, entitled ''Archeological Investigations in the Bay 

 Islands, Spanish Honduras ", was completed. It was published Feb- 

 ruary 12, 1935, in the Smithsonian Miscellaneous Collections, vol. 92, 

 no. 14. In October 1934 Dr. Strong was sent to Fort Collins, Colo., 

 to examine and assist in work at a newly discovered site where a 

 habitation level occupied by Folsom man was being investigated by 

 Dr. F. H. H. Roberts, Jr., of the Bureau of American Ethnology. 

 Returning to Washington in the same month, he was occupied for 

 some time in revising and amplifying an earlier report, "An Intro- 

 duction to Nebraska Archeology ", which was completed and went 

 to press March 1, 1935. From December 1934 until the end of the 

 year, Dr. Strong served as an adviser in anthropology to the Bureau 

 of Indian Affairs. Prior to May 1934 this work was carried on in 

 addition to his other duties but, subsequent to that time, through an 

 arrangement between the Bureau of American Ethnology and the 

 Bureau of Indian Affairs, full time was devoted to this task. 



Winslow M. Walker, associate anthropologist, devoted the time 

 from July 1 until the end of the calendar year in working with the

 time Mr. Walker was able to continue work in connection with his 

 researches in the lower Mississippi Valley, and completed for publi- 

 cation the report of his work on the large mound at Troyville, La. 



J. N. B. Hewitt, ethnologist, was engaged during the year in a 

 revision of the native Onondaga text of the Requickening Address 

 of the Condolence Convocation of the Iroquois League, adding to 

 the text and translation the summarizing speech introductory to the 

 Second Part of this Address, retranslating the whole. He also re- 

 vised the historical tradition of the founding of the League of the 

 Iroquois, not only words but incidents as well, retranslating the 

 whole to conform to the corrections. Texts of laws relating to other 

 aspects of the League were also revised and made to conform to later 

 information obtained in his researches. 



Mr. Hewitt worked on the preparation of a paper analyzing 

 approximately 400 Chippewa place names. He also prepared a list 

 of over 200 Seneca personal names arranged according to the age 

 grades of the individual. 



In the course of the year Mr. Hewitt attended the meetings of the 

 Advisory Committee to the Division of Geographic Names of the
