Description 

Four cultural items and two 

unassociated funerary objects were 

removed from an unknown location in 

Alaska. Between the years 1871–1895, 

Frederick Stearns acquired these items 

and later bequeathed them to the Detroit 

Institute of Arts (DIA) in 1907. The four 

objects of cultural patrimony include a 

Gooch Sha ́daa (Wolf Headdress) 

(72.488); a Weix’ S’eek Daakeit (Sculpin 

Tobacco Pipe) (72.490); a Xixch’ S’eek 

Daakeit (Frog Tobacco Pipe) (72.491); 

and a Kaashishxaaw S’eek Daakeit 

(Dragonfly Pipe) (72.496), and one 

unassociated funerary object is a Bear 

Tooth amulet (99.5B2318). One 

unassociated funerary object was 

removed from an unknown location in 

Alaska. The cultural item was acquired 

by Caleb Lyon and subsequently sold to 

Frederick Stearns between the years 

1871–1895. Mr. Stearns bequeathed the 

item to the DIA in 1907 with the other 

objects listed above. The unassociated 

funerary object is a Naaxein k’ideit 

(Chilkat Apron) (99.5B5047). 

One cultural item was removed from 

an unknown location in Alaska. Mrs. 

Bessie Visaya of Juneau, Alaska, 

initially obtained the item, which was 

later acquired by the Michael R. Johnson 

Gallery. The DIA purchased this object 

in 1977. The object of cultural 

patrimony is a Yaxte ́ X’oow (Big Dipper 

Button Blanket) (77.61). 

One cultural item was removed from 

an unknown location in Alaska. The 

cultural item was acquired by George E. 

Buchanan in 1923, who then donated 

the item to the Detroit News. The 

Detroit News loaned and then later 

donated the item to the DIA. The object 

of cultural patrimony is a Naaxein 

(Chilkat Blanket) (23.28). 

One cultural item was removed from 

an unknown location in Alaska. The 

Carlebach Gallery in New York obtained 

the item from Rasmussen on an 

unknown date. In 1959, the DIA 

purchased the item from the gallery. 

The object of cultural patrimony is a 

Naaxein Kuda ́s’ (Chilkat Shirt) (59.265). 

One unassociated funerary object was 

removed from an unknown location in 

Alaska. Henry Glover Stevens acquired 

the cultural item and later bequeathed it 

to his siblings. In 1934, they donated it 

to the DIA. The unassociated funerary 

object is a Sheishoox (Rattle) (34.49). 

One unassociated funerary object was 

removed from an unknown location in 

Alaska. Richard A. Pohrt and Marion D. 

Pohrt purchased the item in 1990. They 

later donated it to the DIA in 1998. The 

unassociated funerary object is a 

shaman figure (1998.170). 

Cultural Affiliation 

The cultural items in this notice are 

connected to one or more identifiable 

earlier groups, tribes, peoples, or 

cultures. There is a relationship of 

shared group identity between the 

identifiable earlier groups, tribes, 

peoples, or cultures and one or more 

Indian Tribes or Native Hawaiian 

organizations. The following types of 

information were used to reasonably 

trace the relationship: geographical, 

historical, kinship, linguistics, and oral 

tradition. 

Determinations 

Pursuant to NAGPRA and its 

implementing regulations, and after 

consultation with the appropriate 

Indian Tribes and Native Hawaiian 

organizations, the Detroit Institute of 

Arts has determined that: 

• The four cultural items described 

above are reasonably believed to have 

been placed with or near individual 

human remains at the time of death or 

later as part of the death rite or 

ceremony and are believed, by a 

preponderance of the evidence, to have 

been removed from a specific burial site 

of a Native American individual. 

• The seven cultural items described 

above have ongoing historical, 

traditional, or cultural importance 

central to the Native American group or 

culture itself, rather than property 

owned by an individual. 

• There is a relationship of shared 

group identity that can be reasonably 

traced between the cultural items and 

the Central Council of the Tlingit & 

Haida Indian Tribes. 

Requests for Repatriation 

Additional, written requests for 

repatriation of the cultural items in this 

notice must be sent to the Responsible 

Official identified in ADDRESSES. 

Requests for repatriation may be 

submitted by any lineal descendant, 

Indian Tribe, or Native Hawaiian 

organization not identified in this notice 

who shows, by a preponderance of the 

evidence, that the requestor is a lineal 

descendant or a culturally affiliated 

Indian Tribe or Native Hawaiian 

organization. 

Repatriation of the cultural items in 

this notice to a requestor may occur on 

or after February 15, 2024. If competing 

requests for repatriation are received, 

the Detroit Institute of Arts must 

determine the most appropriate 

requestor prior to repatriation. Requests 

for joint repatriation of the cultural 

items are considered a single request 

and not competing requests. The Detroit 

Institute of Arts is responsible for 

sending a copy of this notice to the 

Indian Tribe identified in this notice.

Description 

The five cultural items were removed

by Clarence B. Moore, during his 

excavations of a small sand mound at

Bear Point (By-5, now known as 

Strickland Point) and an unknown site 

in St. Andrews Bay. The four 

unassociated funerary objects are four 

potsherds (Catalog A55/Index 149; 

Catalog A56/Index 150). The one sacred 

object is a large shell dipper (Catalog 

A57/Index 151). 

On January 25, 1955, after receiving 

Congressional authorization, the 

Smithsonian Institution officially 

transferred one lot of ‘‘Archaeological 

Specimens (duplicate) (Educational 

study collections),’’ to Colgate 

University’s Sociology and 

Anthropology Professor John Longyear 

III, Curator of the LMA (previously the 

Anthropology Museum). The five 

cultural items from Bear Point Mound 

were accessioned into the LMA 

collection at this time. 

Cultural Affiliation 

The cultural items in this notice are 

connected to one or more identifiable 

earlier groups, tribes, peoples, or 

cultures. There is a relationship of 

shared group identity between the 

identifiable earlier groups, tribes, 

peoples, or cultures and one or more 

Indian Tribes or Native Hawaiian 

organizations. The following types of 

information were used to reasonably 

trace the relationship: archeological 

information, geographical information, 

historical information, and expert 

opinion. 

Determinations 

Pursuant to NAGPRA and its 

implementing regulations, and after 

consultation with the appropriate 

Indian Tribes and Native Hawaiian 

organizations, the LMA has determined 

that: 

• The four cultural items described 

above are reasonably believed to have 

been placed with or near individual 

human remains at the time of death or 

later as part of the death rite or 

ceremony and are believed, by a 

preponderance of the evidence, to have 

been removed from a specific burial site 

of a Native American individual. 

• The one cultural item described 

above is a specific ceremonial object 

needed by traditional Native American 

religious leaders for the practice of 

traditional Native American religions by 

their present-day adherents. 

• There is a relationship of shared 

group identity that can be reasonably 

traced between the cultural items and 

the Seminole Tribe of Florida and The 

Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma.

Additional, written requests for 

repatriation of the cultural items in this 

notice must be sent to the Responsible 

Official identified in ADDRESSES.
