Introduction to the Study of Mortuary Customs Among the North American Indians by H. C. Yarrow Pdf

Originally published in 1880, herein is a treatise on the burial and mortuary practices and customs of the North American Native Americans."The Mohawks of New York made a large round hole in which the body was placed upright or upon its haunches, after which it was covered with timber, to support the earth which they lay over, and thereby kept the body from being pressed. They then raised the earth in a round hill over it. They always dressed the corpse in all its finery, and put wampum and other things into the grave with it; and the relations suffered not grass nor any weed to grow upon the grave, and frequently visited it and made lamentation.""Seated upon mats are there congregated the family and tribe of the deceased and invited guests. The medicine man, or conjurer, having enjoined silence, then pronounces a funeral oration, during which he recounts the exploits of the deceased, his valor, skill, love of country, property, and influence, alludes to the void caused by his death, and counsels those who remain to supply his place by following in his footsteps; pictures the happiness he will enjoy in the land of spirits to which he has gone, and concludes his address by an allusion to the prominent traditions of his tribe."

Mortuary Customs Among the North American Indians by H. C. Yarrow Pdf

This is a 19th century anthropological study of Native American burial rituals from a white perspective, as made clear by the intro: "This little volume is the third of aeries designed to promote anthropologic researches among the North American Indians. The first was prepared by myself, and entitled "Introduction to the Study of Indian Languages;" the second by Col. Garrick Mallery, entitled "Introduction to the Study of Sign-language among the North American Indians."The mortuary customs of savage or barbaric people have a deep significance from the fact that in them are revealed much of the philosophy of the people by whom they are practiced. Early beliefs concerning the nature of human existence in life and after death, and the relations of the living to the dead, are recorded in these customs. The mystery concerning the future; love for the departed who were loved while here; reverence for the wise and good who may after death be wiser and better; hatred and fear of those who were enemies here and may have added powers of enmity in the hereafter-all these and like considerations have led in every tribe to a body of customs of exceeding interest as revealing the opinions, the philosophy of the people themselves.In these customs, also, are recorded evidences of the social condition of the people, the affection in which friends and kindred are held, the very beginnings of altruism in primitive life.In like manner these customs constitute a record of the moral condition of the people, as in many ways they exhibit the ethic standards by which conduct in human life is judged. For such reasons the study of mortuary customs is of profound interest to the anthropologist.It is hoped that by this method of research the observations of many men may be brought together and placed on permanent record, and that the body of material may be sufficient, by a careful comparative study, to warrant some general discussion concerning the philosophy of this department of human conduct."
