The papers of Aleš Hrdlička, curator in the Division of Physical Anthropology, Department of Anthropology, United States National Museum of the Smithsonian Institution, offer considerable insight into the development of physical anthropology in the first half of this century. The papers include honors bestowed on Hrdlička, autobiographical notes, correspondence with many of the leading anthropologists of the day, anthropometric and osteometric measurements and observations (forming most of the collection), extensive photographs of Hrdlička's field work, manuscripts, research materials, and "My Journeys" (essentially a diary Hrdlička kept of his field work). In addition, there is material of a personal nature. The papers date from 1875 to 1966, but the bulk of the materials date from 1903 to 1943, the time of Hrdlička's career at the USNM.
The collection is primarily in English. Some documents are in Czech, French, German, or Spanish.
Portrait of Ales Hrdlicka (1869-1943)
Scope and Contents
This collection is comprised of both professional and personal materials. The professional material includes honors bestowed on Hrdlička, autobiographical notes, correspondence with many of the leading anthropologists of the day, anthropometric and osteometric measurements and observations (forming most of the collection), extensive photographs of Hrdlička's field work, manuscripts, research materials, and "My Journeys" (essentially a diary Hrdlička kept of his field work). The personal material primarily consists of correspondence with his first wife (Marie Dieudonnée Strickler) and other family members, but there are also financial records. The papers date from 1875 to 1966, but the bulk of the materials date from 1903 to 1943, the time of Hrdlička's career at the United States National Museum of the Smithsonian Institution. Hrdlička investigated all major questions confronting physical anthropologists of his day (the fossil record of early humans, the arrival of humans in the Americas, human variation, evolution, and eugenics) and made valuable contributions in all these areas. Hrdlička's interests in the establishment of physical anthropology as a distinct and important field, the welfare of the Czech people, early hominids, and variation within the human species are all documented in the collection as are the services he performed for various United States government agencies. He pursued field studies in many different parts of the world, but there are relatively few field notes as such among his papers. There is instead the edited journal "My Journeys," photographs, and physical anthropological forms. There is also relatively little material on his administrative involvement in the USNM. There is no material from Hrdlička's time at the Pathological Institution of the New York State Hospitals; after he resigned, fire destroyed the anthropological records Hrdlička collected as a member of the staff. There are materials in the collection which contradict, or at least complicate, many long-held criticisms of Hrdlička, particularly claims that he was racist and opposed feminist ideas. The collection contains materials of interest to genetic research, including anthropometric measurements, hair clippings and fingerprints.
There are a few items in the collection which are dated earlier than the collection's date span. These are publication dates, and the folders containing the items have been dated accordingly, but they have not affected the dates of the series or collection. There are also a few items which are dated after Hrdlička's death. These dates reflect the fact that the collection was added to by the Department of Physical Anthropology after Hrdlička's death and have been taken into account when formulating dates for the series and collection.
Please note that the contents of the collection and the language and terminology used reflect the context and culture of the time of its creation. As an historical document, its contents may be at odds with contemporary views and terminology and considered offensive today. The information within this collection does not reflect the views of the Smithsonian Institution or National Anthropological Archives, but is available in its original form to facilitate research.
Biographical Note
Aleš Hrdlička was born in Bohemia in 1869 and came to America when he was thirteen. As a young man, he was trained in medicine at New York's Eclectic Medical College and the New York Homeopathic Medical College, receiving degrees from each. His first professional work was as a private practitioner, but he gave that up in 1894 when he joined the staff of the New York State Hospital for the Insane at Middletown. There, in addition to other duties, he began studies of the physical characteristics of inmates. This set in motion developments that would eventually lead him to become one of the world's most prominent anthropologists who has sometimes been referred to as "the founder of physical anthropology in America."
In 1896, in preparation for a research appointment with the Department of Anthropology in the Pathological Institute of the New York State Hospitals, Hrdlička went to Paris and studied with Leon Manouvrier. After his return to America, he worked for a short period with the Pathological Institute and came into contact with G.S. Huntington of the College of Physicians and Surgeons in New York. Hrdlička arranged and studied Huntington's large collection of skeletal material, thus gaining knowledge of a well-documented collection representing largely normal persons of European ancestry. He came to the attention of Frederic Ward Putnam, of the American Museum of Natural History, who arranged for his first anthropological field studies.
It was thus that Hrdlička became a member of the Hyde Expeditions to the American Southwest and northern Mexico. In 1898, he traveled to Mexico with Carl Lumholtz to study the Tarahumaras, Huichols, and neighboring tribes. In subsequent years, he returned to Mexico and the Southwest alone and studied physical characteristics and medical conditions of several American Indian tribes. With this experience and examinations of the Trenton and Lansing skeletal material for Putnam, Hrdlička came fully into the world of anthropology. In 1903, he was appointed head of the newly formed Division of Physical Anthropology in the United States National Museum.
While in his position at the Smithsonian, Hrdlička returned to the Southwest for studies of Pima and Apache children in 1905 and, in the following year, traveled to Florida to examine allegedly ancient remains of man. In 1908, he worked among a number of Indian tribes, including the Menominee, Oglala Dakota, Quinailt, Hupa, and Mohave, in a study of tuberculosis among them. In 1909, he traveled to Egypt with an expedition of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York in order to study living Egyptians and to examine remains of Egypt's past population. The following year took him to Argentina, Peru, and Mexico. In the first of these, he again examined allegedly ancient remains of man. In Peru, he made a large collection of skeletal material near Trujillo, at Pachamac, and in the Chicama Valley.
From 1912-1914, Hrdlicka undertook a physical anthropological exhibit for the Panama-California Exposition in San Diego and, for this, traveled to eastern Siberia, Mongolia, Peru, and Florida. He also examined fossil remains of man in Europe and directed field work of other anthropologists in South and East Africa, St. Lawrence Island in Alaska, the Philippines, eastern Siberia, and the Ukraine. In 1915, for the Department of Justice, he assessed the racial makeup of Chippewas on the Leech Lake and White Earth reservations in Minnesota and also studied Dakota Indians. In 1917, his field work was directed toward white American families with longtime residence in the United States. In 1918, he carried out a survey of ancient sites in eastern Florida for the Bureau of American Ethnology. In 1920, he traveled to Hawaii, Japan, Korea, and Manchuria in connection with an appointment to lecture at the Peking Union Medical College. As director of the American School for Prehistoric Studies in France, he again studied fossil remains of man in Europe in 1922 and 1923. In 1925, he carried out work in India, Ceylon, Java, Australia, South Africa, and Europe. In 1927, he was again in Europe to deliver the Huxley Memorial Lecture before the Royal Anthropological Society in Great Britain. Between 1929 and 1938, he traveled frequently to Alaska to carry on an anthropological survey. In 1939, he traveled to Russia and Siberia.
Beginning with much of the skeletal collection of the Army Medical Museum, which had been transferred to the Smithsonian in 1898 before he was appointed there, Hrdlička amassed a bone collection that included, among many other specimens, the Huntington collection, casts of fossil remains of man, and a large and diverse North American collection. He also gathered a large collection of human brains. Over three hundred publications resulted from his study of this material, his field work, and his study of specimens in other museums. In addition, he was involved in many other activities. For United States government agencies, he provided services ranging from examinations of human remains for law enforcement officials to providing information and opinions concerning national origins and traits that were needed to interpret laws and form foreign policy. During World War II, he also advised government officials on policies to be pursued with certain national groups following the war.
In 1918, Hrdlička founded the
American Journal of Physical Anthropology and remained its editor until 1942. In 1928, he was the major force behind the organization of the American Association of Physical Anthropologists and served as its president from 1928 to 1932. He was also president of the Anthropological Society of Washington in 1907, the American Anthroplogical Association from 1925 to 1927, and the Washington Academy of Sciences from 1928 to 1929. He was chairman of Section H of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in 1918 and secretary of the Committee on Anthropology of the National Research Council in 1917. From the 1920s to the 1940s Hrdlicka was a member of the American Eugenics Society and prepared exhibits for various eugenics congresses. In addition, Hrdlička was a member of the American Philosophical Society and the National Academy of Sciences. He represented the Smithsonian at several international gatherings of scholars, including meetings of the International Congress of Americanists.

Processing Information
Some of Hrdlička's papers had been previously organized by several archival processors. They and the present processor have generally attempted to preserve the organization that Hrdlička gave the papers. Admittedly, there have been problems with that, and some series were merged and new ones added. In researching these papers, it should be kept in mind that many series are a mixture of subject matter.
Titles in square brackets have been supplied by the archivist. However, please note that in some cases the processor has instead chosen to identify Hrdlička's titles with quotation marks. In series where this is the case, there is a series level note to indicate it.
The folder titles of this collection were written by the creator of the collection, Aleš Hrdlička. Some of these folder titles include offensive or outdated language. The original titles have been retained to preserve the historical integrity of the archival record. Use of this language does not reflect the views of the National Anthropological Archives or the Smithsonian Institution.
The three most recent accretions (accessions NAA.2018-07, which includes two card file boxes; NAA.2012-01, which includes a watercolor painting given to Hrdlička by W.H. Holmes; and NAA.2011-30, which includes correspondence with his wife and others, certificates and awards, rolled photographs, and a photograph album) have not yet been processed, but can be viewed. The collection extent does not include these materials.

Immediate Source of Acquisition
Hrdlička bequeathed his papers to the Smithsonian Institution. The Division of Physical Anthropology maintained them until they were deposited in the National Anthropological Archives in the 1960s. Some papers have come into the collection since then, most recently in 2018. These new accretions came to the collection through Donald Ortner, David Hunt, T. Dale Stewart, the Department of Anthropology, and the University of Alaska.

Correspondence
Series 3
Archival Resource Key
26.5 Linear feet
1885-1953
Scope and Contents
This series includes responses to inquiries, business of the Smithsonian Department of Anthropology and various organizations, discussions of scientific findings, responses to questions of heredity, letters on behalf of the Czech people, and correspondence with family members. Other materials include manuscripts of Hrdlička's articles, lectures, and radio talks; reports; information Hrdlička collected on particular subjects; anthropometric and osteometric data; articles by other researchers; and photographs. Of special interest are letters concerning Hrdlička's appointment to the United States National Museum, the founding of the American Association of Physical Anthropologists and the
American Journal of Physical Anthropology, Hrdlička's assistance to law enforcement agencies, his interest in the welfare of Czechoslovakia, and his advice to political leaders of the United States and foreign countries. Some letters are from important anthropologists, and some correspondence with particular individuals is extensive. T. Dale Stewart and other Department of Anthropology staff members answered some letters after Hrdlička's death. This series does not include any of Hrdlička's correspondence with either of his wives. There is also correspondence in many other series.
Arrangement
Arranged alphabetically. At the beginning of each letter of the alphabet are folders labeled as miscellaneous correspondence. Researchers should be aware that the date range listed on the folder of an individual's correspondence is usually not inclusive, and they should be alert for inconsistencies in filing. For example, there are papers filed "Department of Justice" and "Justice, Department of." It may be necessary to search all of the correspondence to find all relevant documents on a given subject.

Journeys to the Southwestern United States and Mexican Indians
Series 6
Archival Resource Key
6.1 Linear feet
1898-1919
Scope and Contents
This series includes notes on the various Indian tribes Hrdlička visited on his trips to the southwestern United States and Mexico between 1898 and 1903. Most of these are ethnographic in nature (for example, origin stories, responses from consultants, and notes on medicines), but they also include anthropometric data, adding machine tapes, and some correspondence. The physical anthropology tables are primarily anthropometric measurements and many participants are identified. The photographs are mostly portraits or show skeletal remains. Most were taken by Hrdlička, although there are prints of Ute Indians taken by Charles Goodman. The journals are personal remembrances with little material of anthropological significance. The materials titled "The Pueblos" were used in the publication "The Pueblos, with Comparative Data on the Bulk of the Tribes of the Southwest and Northern Mexico,"
American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 20, no. 3 (1935): 235-460. The drawings are of skeletal specimens, mostly at the AMNH, and are annotated to indicate sex, age, and museum number. Most of the notes on museum specimens are on crania in the AMNH, although some are on bones in the National Museum of Mexico and in private collections. The statistical work sheets apparently were prepared for E.A. Hooton at his statistical laboratory at Harvard in the late 1930s from data supplied by Hrdlička. The data was analyzed on the basis of age range, cephalic measurements, and stature to calculate the mean of various physical anthropological measurements. Most, if not all, the data were compiled from male specimens.
Series 15: Anthropometric Measurements of Indians Taken at the United States National Museum has additional materials that may be related to these trips.

Descriptions in quotation marks are Hrdlička's own.

Journeys to the Dakota, Chippewa, Kickapoo, and Shawnee
Series 7
Archival Resource Key
2.29 Linear feet
1916-1917
Scope and Contents
This series includes photographs, anthropometric measurements, and correspondence associated with trips taken by Hrdlička in 1916 and 1917. The first, in 1916, was to the Cheyenne River Reservation in South Dakota to study the Dakota (Sioux) Indians and then to White Earth and Leech Lake, Minnesota, to examine Chippewa. This work was done at the behest of the Department of Justice, which needed to know the degree of blood mixture with whites among the Chippewa. Hrdlička studied the Dakota, who had comparatively little mixture, as a control population. The second, in the summer of 1917, was to the Shawnee at the Shawnee Agency and the Kickapoo in McCloud, both in Oklahoma, to find pure blood samples and ascertain the physical type. Hrdlička examined more Chippewa on a trip in the fall of 1920 to settle the blood-mixture question. No information from that trip is in this series.
More information regarding this work can be found in Series 3: Correspondence, "Department of Justice", "Justice, Department of", and "Powell, Ransom J.".

Scope and Contents
This series includes notes, measurements, manuscripts, and illustrations related to Hrdlička's trip to Florida in November, 1918, after his wife's death. Having worked there in 1906 and 1916, Hrdlička rounded out a survey by exploring the Ten Thousand Islands region on the southwest coast. Then, in 1922, he produced an article, "The Anthropology of Florida." Some materials for that article are included in this series.
See also Series 37: Photographs, "Miscellaneous" for images probably by Hrdlička and Series 19: Early Man Studies, "Pseudo-ancient man in the Americas" for photographs taken in Osprey, Florida, possibly by Hrdlička on his 1906 trip.

Alaska Archeological Expeditions
Series 9
Archival Resource Key
4.75 Linear feet
1912-1938
bulk 1926-1938
Scope and Contents
This series includes diaries, correspondence, notes, maps, anthropometric and osteometric measurements, reprints, manuscripts, and printed material related to fieldwork done in Alaska by Hrdlička and others. Of special interest is the material collected by Riley Moore on his 1912 trip to St. Lawrence Island for the Panama-California Exposition. Hrdlička made ten trips to Alaska between 1926 and 1938. On the first trip, sponsored by the Bureau of American Ethnology, he was to conduct an anthropological and archeological survey of Alaska. Other commitments kept Hrdlička from returning until 1929 when he again was sponsored by the B.A.E.; Hrdlička's purpose on this trip, as it would be on future trips, was to learn as much as possible about the Indians and Eskimos (including anthropometric measurements), to trace old settlements and migration paths, and to collect important skeletal and archeological material. In the summer of 1930, Hrdlička made two trips along the Kuskokwim River and in 1931, his work extended to the Nushagak River, the Molchatna River, the Wood River, Bristol Bay, the Kvichak River, parts of the Iliamna Lake region, and Uyak Bay of Kodiak Island. It was at this later stop that Hrdlička discovered the Jones Point (also referred to as Our Point) site in Uyak Bay. Hrdlička was aided on this trip by B.R. Hart and Gordon Jones of the Alaska Packers Association; A.W. Shiels, F. Daly, A.D. Daly, and A.S. Foster of the Pacific American Fisheries; and Laura Jones, Gordon's wife. Hrdlička retured to the Jones Point site in 1932, 1934, 1935, and for most of 1936. Besides excavating there in 1932, Hrdlička performed trial excavations at Chief's Point and other sites, and an archeological survey of Kodiak Island. He was aided again by B.R. Hart and Gordon and Laura Jones. Hrdlička returned in 1934 with a volunteer student crew, receiving in addition the help of Hart and the Joneses. That year Hrdlička added a brief Survey of the Cooks Inlet region and the mainland opposite Kodiak Island at Jones Point. The 1935 work was done exclusively at Jones Point. Hrdlička was helped again by Gordon Jones and a crew of volunteer professors and students. Four volunteers, in addition to the Joneses, accompanied Hrdlička in 1936. Excavations were carried out at Jones Point until late June. The remainder of 1936 was spent excavating at Dutch Harbor and Unalaska Island; on Atka, Kiska, Attu, Little Kiska, and Large Kiska islands; and in a mummy cave of Kagamil Island in the Four Mountain Group. Hrdlička concentrated on the Aleutian Islands and the Commander Islands for his Alaska expeditions in 1937 and 1938. In 1937 with six volunteer students, Hrdlička explored Unalaska Island and the Four Mountain Group, Attu Island, the Commander Islands, Agatu Island, Tanaga Island, Ilak Island, Adak Island, Umnak Island, and Shiprock Island. For the 1938 trip, Hrdlička purposed to collect data on pre-Aleut people, to determine if the Commander Islands served as a second land bridge, and to re-examine the burial caves and search for other such caves. He took several student volunteers. Exploration was carried out on Shiprock Island, Sviechnikov Harbor on Amlia Island, Ilak Island, Amchitka Island, Umnak Island (Nikolski village), the Commander Islands (Sarania Bay and Korabelni Bay), the Four Mountain Group, Bogoslav Island, and Amoknak Island.

Panama-California Exposition Expeditions
Series 10
Archival Resource Key
2.08 Linear feet
1912-1914
Scope and Contents
This series includes photographs (many portraits), correspondence, anthropometric measurements, notes, and adding machine tapes associated with the physical anthropology exhibit at the 1915 Panama-California Exposition at San Diego, California, which Hrdlička was asked to prepare in 1912. Hrdlička envisioned a three-pronged approach: a comparative study of the native child; photographs, casts, and measurements of the races of man; and skeletal remains of man. With a $30,000 grant, he hired two sculptors to make busts and arranged for expeditions to obtain desired information and materials. Hrdlička went on two: to Siberia and Mongolia in 1912 and to Peru in 1913 to study American Indian pathology. Other trips were made by Riley D. Moore to St. Lawrence Island, Alaska, to study the Eskimo; Philip Newton to the Philippine Islands to study the Negrito; Vojtech Suk (also known as A. Schück) to Africa; Jindřich Matiegka to Bohemia to search for Neolithic crania; Kazimir Stolyhwo to the Birusa caves in Siberia and to the Ukraine to search for early man; and Stanislaw Poniatowski to eastern Siberia. Suk worked in South Africa and then moved to East Africa (Kenya). Before he completed his work there, the British interned him as an enemy alien. This series contains materials from both of Hrdlička's expeditions, Newton's expedition, and Suk's expedition, but contains no materials from Moore's, Matiegka's, Stolyhwo's, or Poniatowski's expeditions.
Additional papers on this series can be found in Series 3: Correspondence, "Panama-California Expositon, San Diego" (including details of Hrdlička's plans for the exhibits), and under the names of the people who did research for the exposition. There are also letters from one of the sculptors in "Mička, Frank". The materials from Riley D. Moore's expedition to Alaska can be found in Series 9: Alaska Archeological Expeditions.

1908-1909
Scope and Contents
This series includes expenses, notes, and correspondence related to Hrdlička's 1909 trip to Egypt and Europe. Hrdlička visited a newly discovered cemetery in Egypt at the request of the Metropolitan Museum of Art to investigate the physical type of the human remains there. While in Egypt, Hrdlička obtained a large skeletal collection, primarily XIIth dynasty, for the United States National Museum. He also took anthropometric measurements on people at Kharga Oasis. Before he returned, Hrdlička took the opportunity to examine other peoples in the Near East and to travel to Greece, Turkey, Hungary, Bohemia, Russia, Poland, and Germany.
See Series 36: Physical Anthropology Folios, "Hrdlička, Aleš: Physical Anthropology, the Natives of Kharga Oasis, Egypt" for photographs and anthropometric data and Series 37: Photographs, "Egypt, Europe, and Russia" and "Miscellaneous: Henri F.

Series 12
Archival Resource Key
0.33 Linear feet
1910-1912
Scope and Contents
This series includes correspondence, notes, and photographs associated with Hrdlička's trip to South America. This trip was prompted by Florentino Ameghino's claim to have found evidence of early hominids in Argentina in the early 1900s. Hrdlička was eager to investigate these claims and, since he was attending the XVIIth International Congress of Americanists held that year in Argentina and Mexico, he took the opportunity to investigate the subject of early man in all of South America. Hrdlička examined the Argentine remains and, assisted by Bailey Willis of the U.S. Geological Survey, conducted a survey of several Argentine sites. Hrdlička had visited Brazil before going to Argentina, and upon finishing his work in Argentina visited Peru (where he collected almost 3400 crania). He then went to Mexico for that section of the Congress.

Hrdlička made a long-hoped-for trip to the Far East beginning in January of 1920 to deliver a lecture before the Peking Union Medical College. A stop was first made in Honolulu, where Hrdlička examined the cranial collections in the Bernice P. Bishop Museum. Hrdlička then proceeded to Japan and China. Before he returned, he also visited Korea and obtained more measurements in Japan and Hawaii.

Scope and Contents
This series includes correspondence, notes, measurements, and photographs related to Hrdlička's trip to Australia, southern Asia, and South Africa for the Buffalo (New York) Society of Natural Sciences. Hrdlička first went to India and toured the Siwalik Hills, an important site for fossil remains of early apes. Unfortunately, some of his field notes and measurements were lost. From India, Hrdlička traveled to Ceylon, Java, Australia, South Africa (where he met Raymond Dart, who identified and described the first
Australopithecus remains), and back to the United States by way of England.

Scope and Contents
This series contains anthropometric measurements for Cahuilla, Catawba, Cherokee, Creek, Crow, Dakota, Kickapoo, Menominee, Navaho, Nez Perce, Omaha, Oneida, Osage, Picuris, Ponca, Potawatomi, Pima, San Felipe, Santa Clara, Sac and Fox, Salish, Seneca, Taos, Yakima, and Wenatchi. There are only a few individuals from most tribes. Three sets of American Museum of Natural History Hyde Expedition forms were completed for each subject: "measures" (head and body measurements), "inspection" (hair, features, limbs, and body surface), and "physiological" (temperature, pulse, health, and senses). Plaster busts were cast of the subjects and the six-digit division of physical anthropology catalog numbers are included among the data. The Chippewa volume includes measurements for a supposed full-blood named Noodin. It is not certain when or where his measurements were made.

Bone Studies
Series 16
Archival Resource Key

1893-1929
most undated
Scope and Contents
This series consists of osteometric measurements on various human bones. It includes original measurements, calculations, derived comparative tables, drawings, adding machine tapes, manuscripts, and photographs. Sometimes the measurements are organized by bone; sometimes by race, tribe, or ethnic group; and sometimes by geographic area. Related materials may be dispersed through several folders. For some material, several versions or copies are included. Most specimens examined are in the collections of the National Museum of Natural History. The specimens of whites were usually from the George S. Huntington collection, originally in the College of Physicians and Surgeons in New York and later in the Smithsonian. The Egyptian material came from excavations of XII Dynasty rock pits at the pyramid of Lisht. The Peruvian material came from burials at Pachacamac and the Valley of the Chicama that Hrdlička attributed to the Yungas. Many American Indian specimens came from excavations widely distributed over the United States and Alaska, some dug by Hrdlička himself. Hrdlička also collected specimens while on world travels and others through correspondence.

Old Americans
Series 17
Archival Resource Key
2.08 Linear feet
1914-1930
Scope and Contents
This series includes anthropometric data, personal histories of participants, correspondence, manuscripts, and photographs related to Hrdlička's book
The Old Americans. His work at the Pathological Institute had awakened Hrdlička to the lack of anthropological records for "normal" Americans needed for comparative studies. As a remedy, Hrdlička wanted to collect measurements to determine what the "typical" American looked like, specifically to see if there was such a thing as an American subtype of white people. He came to the decision that he would have to find whites whose ancestors had been born in America for four generations back. These were so-called "Old Americans." In addition to producing comparative standards for anthropological work, Hrdlička wanted to determine the physical characteristics of these Old Americans and to find what developmental changes had occurred through mixture. He made several trips to secure data, including to Yale University, the University of Virginia (where Robert Bennett Bean assisted him), Harvard University, and the Tennessee mountains. Hrdlička often divided the information into "Old Americans" and "Not Old Americans." He published the results of his study as The Old Americans in 1925.
See Series 37: Photographs, "Old Americans" for glass negatives of Old Americans at the University of Virginia.

Children Who Run on All Fours
Series 18
Archival Resource Key

1928-1936
Scope and Contents
This series includes drafts of Hrdlička's book,
Children Who Run on All Fours, and illustrations, data, correspondence, news clippings, and photographs associated with the book. Hrdlička had begun noting the phenomenon of quadrapedal locomotion in the human child during his first trip to Mexico. Hrdlička assumed this was atavistic behavior harking back to times when our prehuman ancestors used this type of progression. Hrdlička published the results of his studies as Children Who Run on All Fours in 1931.

This series includes notes, correspondence, photographs, and illustrations related to Hrdlička's study of early hominids. Hrdlička traveled widely and often to examine and measure remains attributed to ancient man and to the sites where the fossils were found. He also met and corresponded with many leading researchers into the origins of man, including Raymond Dart, Davidson Black, Eugene Dubois, Sir Arthur Keith, and Sir Arthur Smith-Woodward.
See Series 3: Correspondence, "Dart, Raymond"; "Black, Davidson"; "Dubois, Eugene"; "Keith, Arthur
Sir"; and "Smith Woodward, Arthur Sir" for additional materials. There is also information on Hrdlička's studies of early man in many other series.

European Ethnic History
Series 20
Archival Resource Key
0.63 Linear feet
1908-1938
Scope and Contents
The series includes notes, bibliographic references, newspaper clippings, and articles about European ethnic variation. One of Hrdlička's lifelong interests was human variability, both between and within races. He spent much of his professional life accumulating anthropometric and osteometric data in his attempt to answer questions regarding variation in humans. It is not known how Hrdlička used these notes. They may have been an outgrowth of the information search on human variation—the accumulated data on the history of the peoples he was studying. Some notes appear related to a series of lectures Hrdlička gave on European ethnic history.

Manuscripts of Writings
Series 22
Archival Resource Key
6.25 Linear feet
1901-1944
most undated
Scope and Contents
This series consists of typescripts and handwritten drafts, often both for a single manuscript. Hrdlička was a prolific writer, with over 400 publications, including 20 books.

In addition to those listed, manuscripts of Hrdlička's writings are found scattered throughout the collection and are noted in the contents list. Of special interest are some autobiographical pages placed under Hrdlička's name.
Arrangement
Arranged by date of publication. Undated materials are placed before dated papers and are arranged alphabetically by title or subject. The materials were originally arranged by file numbers that bore no relation to the year of publication or subject matter.

"From My Journeys"
Series 25
Archival Resource Key
4.4 Linear feet
1898-1938
Scope and Contents
This series is essentially a personal diary of Hrdlička's field studies from 1898 to 1938. The manuscripts consist mainly of Hrdlička's daily experiences in fieldwork and contain more information on customs than on physical anthropology. There is more data on Hrdlička's Alaska expeditions than any of his other work. Of special interest are notes on obtaining collections. Hrdlička intended to publish "From My Journeys." The only portion published, however, appeared in 1943 as
Alaska Diary. A considerable number of photographs are in the series. The exception is the material on Alaska, where few photographs are found, probably because they were removed for use in Alaska Diary. The materials cover Hrdlička's trips to Latin America, the American Southwest, Tennessee, Quebec, Egypt, Europe, the Far East, India, Australia, South Africa, and Alaska. The only correspondence in the papers is in folder "MJ 10.63," which contains letters exchanged by Hrdlička and his wife, Marie Strickler, from 1915 to 1916. Folder "MJ 10.69" contains a manuscript which Hrdlička titled "Anthropological and Archeological Work on Kodiak Island." Hrdlička edited the journal. In 1980, Vincent J. McNally organized the materials into folders numbered "MJ 1.1" through "MJ 11.73B". McNally's folder descriptions are more detailed than those included here and contain descriptions of the photographs. A copy of his descriptions is maintained with the papers. Some fragments and early drafts of these papers are in the series of manuscripts of writings.

American Journal of Physical Anthropology
Series 26
Archival Resource Key
0.63 Linear feet
1917-1942
Scope and Contents
This series includes correspondence, manuscripts, illustrations, reviews, printing blocks and engraving plates, and financial papers related to the
American Journal of Physical Anthropology (AJPA). Hrdlička was the central and driving force behind the creation of the AJPA in 1918. The journal served to establish the identity of the discipline, allowed Hrdlička to define physical anthropology in broad modern terms, and gave him a platform to campaign for recognition of the profession. He served as the first editor of the AJPA from 1918 to 1942, a period during which twenty three volumes were published. He also contributed considerable personal funds to the journal. In 1927, having previously declined, the Wistar Instute agreed to take over management of the journal from Hrdlička. The AJPA was recognized as the official organ of the fledgling American Associaton of Physical Anthropologists in 1930.
There is a considerable amount of material regarding the
AJPA in Series 3: Correspondence "American Journal of Physical Anthropology". Series 3: Correspondence, "American Anthropological Association" includes letters exchanged with Robert Lowie regarding an agreement for him to refer submissions on physical anthropology to the AJPA. There are book reviews for the journal in Series 22: Manuscripts of Writings, "Undated: Brief book reviews for the American Journal of Physical Anthropology".

Photographs
Series 37
Archival Resource Key
29.23 Linear feet
1887-1944
Scope and Contents
This series includes prints, glass plate negatives, lantern slides, nitrate negatives, postcards, and correspondence. Considering their subject matter, the lantern slides for the southwestern United States and northern Mexico were probably taken on expeditions. Among the prints for the 1920 Far East expedition are photographs of Chinese women and of Korea that were probably taken on that trip. Material under "early man" includes photographs and postcards. The prints were originally housed in envelopes bearing Hrdlička's annotations. Some were used in publications. The photographs placed under manuscripts of writings include paste-ups for plates and figures used in some of Hrdlička's publications on Alaska, including "Anthropological Survey in Alaska,"
Alaska Diary, and Anthropology of Kodiak Island. How some photographs entered the collection is unknown. With certainty, they could not be placed with expeditions, trips, meetings, or research interests. These prints were placed in the series of miscellany.
