Culin Archival Collection : Series 2: collecting expeditions 1898-1928 1903-1928 (bulk).

Series 2 documents Culin's expeditions, through which he actively sought to develop the Native American, eastern European, and Asian collections of the Department of Ethnology at the Brooklyn Museum. The seventeen Brooklyn Museum expeditions fall into three units, each with the goal of developing comprehensive collections: Native American Cultures (1903-08, 1911, 1917); Asia (1909, 1912-13, 1913-14); and eastern Europe (1920-28). The series also documents three earlier trips made while Culin was in Philadelphia.
