Description
The range of the Dena’ina people stretches from the Cook Inlet region to southcentral Alaska and has been established for a thousand years. Yet their culture has largely been overlooked| leaving large gaps in the literature. “Dena’inaq’ Huch’ulyeshi|” a new catalog of Dena’ina materials| is an ambitious project that finally brings their culture to light.
Lavishly illustrated with more than six hundred photographs| maps| and drawings| “Dena’inaq’ Huch’ulyeshi “contains 469 entries on Dena’ina objects in European and American collections. It is enriched with examples of traditional Dena’ina narratives| first-person accounts| and interviews. Thirteen essays on the history and culture of the Athabascan people put the pieces into a larger historical context. This catalog is a comprehensive reference that will also accompany a large-scale exhibition running September 2013 through January 2014 at the Anchorage Museum.
