"Sixth Annual Report of the Bureau of Ethnology" by J. W. Powell is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. This comprehensive report details the Bureau's activities and findings regarding ethnological studies, primarily focusing on North American Indian tribes during the fiscal year 1884-1885. It covers various aspects such as field work, linguistic studies, archaeological explorations, and the publications produced, providing an in-depth analysis of the cultural, linguistic, and artistic practices of Native American peoples. The opening of the report includes a letter of transmittal, along with an introduction that outlines the Bureau's ongoing research efforts among North American Indians. It describes the systematic operations related to mound explorations, linguistic fieldwork, and cultural studies undertaken across different tribes. Moreover, specific details about various assistants and their contributions to the research are highlighted, indicating a collaborative effort in documenting the languages, traditions, and artifacts of Native Americans, all of which serve as an invaluable resource for anthropologists and historians.
