Hopi Child's Blanket$1,850 24" x32" c.1890Hopi boys blanket or kwikwilvösaala collected by the late William Neil Smith in 1947 at Orayvi Village on Third Mesa.
Excerpted from the ASU Library database: William Neil "Bill" Smith, Jr. was born May 5, 1920, After his father died in 1934, he and his mother moved to Arizona. He attended the University of Arizona from 1939-42 and 1946-48, studying under Byron Cummings(Kinishba Ruins-Fort Apache Reservation-University of Arizona Summer School, Department of Archaeology) and Edward Spicer. He worked in the summer of 1937 at the University of Arizona Archaeological Field School held at the Kinishba Ruins on the White Mountain Apache Reservation. He graduated in May 1948 with an A.B. in Anthropology. He served in the Army in 1944-45. From 1945-1967, Smith made many extended ethnographical field trips to Sonora, Mexico, to study the Seri Indians at Desemboque and Tiburon Island where he earned the nickname Seri Bill. His research included lifestyle, customs, language, genealogy, kinship, and cultural changes due to the influence of outsiders. He assisted the Seris by bringing much needed medicines and supplies to them. On four occasions, he brought groups of Seris to the United States to experience different cultures. He sought to educate people in the United States and Mexico about Seri culture and the problem of cultural change affecting the Seris through numerous lectures, publications, and film projects. After concluding his studies in Sonora, Smith during three trips to Asia (1971-1972, 1975-1982, 1985-1993) carried out anthropological research in Australia, Bali, Thailand, and the Maldive Islands where he completed a research paper for the Republic of Maldives Department of Education on Islamic Youth, Development from Birth to 20 Years in 1992. He also contributed four detailed manuscripts to the Australian Department of Aboriginal Affairs - Alice Springs, Northern Territory covering research and participant observer studies of tribal problems in the Northern Territories (1988-1991) and lectures. He died in 2010.
