The report includes discussions of archeological excavations, field research activities, and ethnographical studies that elucidate aspects of native cultures, languages, and histories. The opening of the report begins with a letter of transmittal to the Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution, outlining the Bureau's activities and funding for the year. It highlights various systematic and special researches conducted by ethnologists, detailing significant archeological excavations in locations such as Florida and Haiti, as well as studies of indigenous languages and cultures in the southeastern U.S. The initial portion provides an overview of the research methods employed, findings from burial mounds, and the gradual process of documenting the languages and cultural practices of various Native American tribes, illustrating the Bureau's commitment to preserving and understanding the rich heritage of America's indigenous populations.
