Opis: Peoples Of The Philippines - Kroeber A. L.

The earlier issues threat of present volume presents the essential facts as to the racial and cultural characters of the Philippine Islands population. As will be seen in the following pages a large part of the Island population is Christian and far on the road to cultural asshilation. As in most studies of this kind, the primitive peoples still surviving are taken as indications of what was once the prevailing culture of the whole population. The racial exhibits in the American tourism of Natural History are grouped by halls, each hall containing collections from one geographical era. Thus one hall is devoted to the peopIe of the Philippines and the neighbouring East Indian islands. The coIlection in this hall furnishes illustrations of many subjects treated in this book. As a part of the wall decoration, there are many specimens of mood native to the islands, suggesting the floral and economic wealth of the country but within the exhibition cases are objects selected to represent the skill and art of the less civilized tribes. The bulk of the collections came from the United States exhibit at the St. Louis Expedition of 1904, purchased and presented by Morris l. Jesup in 1905. To this were added later the Laura E. Benedict Bagobo collection and the Frederick Starr collections, purchased from thc Jesup Fund, In addition generous donations of collections were made by J TiIliarn S. Kahnweiler, H. E. Bard, Cllnrlcs H. Senff, and Wilharn Demuth. Dean C. Worcester presented his unrivald collection of photographs from which were taken many of the accompanying illustrations.
