  • The Migration of Folktales: Four Channels to the Americas [and Comments and Reply]

    Francis Lee Utley, Robert Austerlitz et al.ARTICLECurrent Anthropology1974Cited by: 2

    This paper attempts to draw together some of the evidences of borrowing in folktales from the Old World to the New. It abstracts in four channels, from Europe across the North Atlantic, from Africa across the South Atlantic, from Northeast Asia via the Bering Strait, and from Southeast Asia across the South Pacific. Considering both pre- and post-Columbian borrowing, it calls on both physical and cultural anthropology as witnesses to the route an…

The central proposition of the theory is that the apparent resistance to acceptance of majority group culture may be expressed in "manneristic" terms, i.e., in terms of the exaggeration and embellishment of those elements of traditional culture by means of which the majority i…

  • The Rubber Mold Technic for the Study of Textile-Impressed Pottery

    Open AccessCarol K RachlinARTICLEAmerican Antiquity1955Cited by: 1References: 5

    The custom of pressing textiles against the wet clay in the process of pottery making has a wide distribution, extending from the Eastern Woodlands in the United States to the heart of Asia. The archaeological specimens of this type of pottery enable us to reconstruct the textile technics where the textiles themselves no longer exist.In my attempts to do such textile reconstructions from pottery impressions I have used a number of different metho…
