300 .. $a Contains text of Berghaus's 1851 ethnological article, "Über die Verwandtschaft der
Schoschonen, Komantschen und Apatschen" ("On the relationship of the Shoshones, Comanches,
and Apaches"), translated from the German by Christopher J. Wickham.
330 .. $a In 1851, an article appeared in a German journal, Geographisches Jahrbuch (Geographic
Yearbook), that sought to establish definitive connections, using language observations,
among the Comanches, Shoshones, and Apaches. Heinrich Berghaus's study was based on
lexical data gathered by a young German settler in Texas, Emil Kriewitz, and included
a groundbreaking list of Comanche words and their German translations. Berghaus also
offered Kriewitz's cultural notes on the Comanches, a discussion of the existing literature
on the three tribes, and an original map of Comanche hunting grounds. Perhaps because
it was published only in German, the existence of Berghaus's study has been all but
unknown to North American scholars, even though it offers valuable insights into Native
American languages, toponyms, ethnonyms, hydronyms, and cultural anthropology. It
was also a significant document revealing the history of German-Comanche relations
in Texas. Daniel J. Gelo and Christopher J. Wickham now make available for the first
time a reliable English translation of this important nineteenth-century document.
In addition to making the article accessible to English speakers, they also place
Berghaus's work into historical context and provide detailed commentary on its value
for anthropologists and historians who study German settlement in Texas
