First he was put in a cell for the insane to be decided later what to do with him. He became a sensation as a primitive savage untouched by civilization. From 1911-1916, Ishi resided at the Anthropology Museum of the University of California, sharing knowledge about his culture and beliefs with anthropologists Alfred L. Kroeber and Theodore T. Waterman, as well as Surgeon Saxton T. Pope. Ishi provided insight about his language, a dialect presumed lost until his emergence from the Mill Creek region of California. Free to return to his homelands, Ishi chose to remain at the museum as a living interpreter of his culture. Exposed to a society hosting diseases foreign to the Yahi, Ishi contracted tuberculosis and died on March 25, 1916, at the medical college on Parnassus. Ishi left behind a legacy of invaluable information about his people, and provided a shining example of a courageous human spirit bridging the divide between two worlds. 655 4 Documentary films 260 United States : |bRattlesnake Production, |c1994. 041 eng 952 |00 |10 |2ddc |40 |6FL_RECORD_1492_000000000000000 |70 |8FL |9146841FL |bFL |d2019-03-20 |l0 |oFL Record 1492 |pHU_OSA_00003128.mp4 |r2021-11-04 |w2019-03-20 |yDIGIFILM |zAccess Copy, MP4 format |cAudio Visual 920 01 JXKazEeG 966 True |bHU_OSA_00003128 |cDigitally Anywhere / With Registration
