In closing I would point to one of the outstanding figures in American
anthropology, Alfred Kroeber, in order to show by one example how deeply
a certain ideology of the American native has sunk into the marrow of
modern scholarship. Theodora Kroeber, the
wife of Alfred Kroeber, notes in her book that Ishi's brain was
removed during an autopsy, although she makes no mention of what
happened to it. Alfred Kroeber of Berkeley, one of the leading anthropologists of
the 20th century, proclaimed Ishi the last of the Yahi Indians, a lost
tribe dating back to the Stone Age. |
