Unknown Kuskwagatutes Tribe Found in Alaska by Gordon
Professor George J. Gordon of the University of Pennsylvania reports discovery of a new Alaska tribe along the Koskokwin River in the far northwest. The Kuskwagatutes are said to be mongoloid in ancestry, monogamistic, with no known crime or vice, and they weave bird skin robes from local waterfowl. Gordon traveled 1,600 miles by small sloop, endured gales and hunger, hoping to confirm origins and classify their culture.
