These are untranslated, except for three, which have interlinear translation and notes. Also in this section is "Essay on the grammar of the Aleut language" (item E2.2) with Boas's corrections, and "Aleut Folklore" (item 69), an ethnography of the Unangan by an unidentified author, likely a student of Boas, based on study made of the Aleut texts of Vladimir Jochelson. Comparative folklore and abstracts of Aleut tales are included. In the "Yup'ik" section of the finding aid, also see Swadesh's "Unaaliq Eskimo vocabulary file" (item E1b.200), which contains comparisons with Aleut languages.

It consists of correspondence with Jay Ellis Ransom regarding Duwamish, Aleut, and Flathead in Subcollection II, Series I. Correspondence. Ransom is considering Voegelin's request for American Indian linguistic materials for graduate students to work on, and might send his unpublished Aleut materials. The contents of Series II. Research Notes, Subseries I. Eskimo-Aleutian, also in Subcollection II, might also be of interest, though the focus there is more on Inuit.

Description: The Yup'ik materials in the ACLS collection are found in multiple sections of the finding aid. In the "Yup'ik" section there are "Unaaliq" field notes, texts with interlinear translations, and vocabularies (items E1b.200, E1b.201 and E1b.202). These were derived from Swadesh's work with James Andrews of St. Michael, Alaska. See also Boas' "Comparative word list of Alaskan Eskimo [Iñupiat], Siberian Eskimo [Yupik], and Chukchee" (item E1.1 in the "Iñupiat" section) from 1905, which contains "Siberian Eskimo" language material that is probably Siberian Yup'ik based on fieldwork of Bogoras from the Jesup North Pacific Expedition.
