Please note that the contents of the collection and the language and terminology used reflect the context and culture of the time of its creation.

Biographical Note:
John Baptiste Bernadou (1858–1908) was an officer in the United States Navy. In 1884, Smithsonian Secretary Spencer Baird appointed Bernadou a "Smithsonian Attaché" to the American Legation in Korea on an assignment to investigate the country's economic and strategic potential. Over the next year, Bernadou learned the Korean language and local customs, traveled extensively, and assembled a collection of material culture that was deposited at the Smithsonian Institution. He later served in the Spanish-American War and developed a formula for smokeless gunpowder.
