A valuable collection of ethnological specimens has recently been received by the University of Pennsylvania Museum from Dr. William G. Farabee, who is at the head of the university's Amazon expedition. The specimens were collected in the southern part of British Gulana among the Carib and Arowak Indians and other hitherto unknown tribes. They include clothing for men and women, made from the feathers of the Macan and other birds of rich plumage, paintings of religious ceremonials on sticks, bead work, bows, and arrows, spears, hammocks and domestic utensils. None of them, according to archaeoligists at the university, show any trace of white civilization.
