SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is 

here given in accordance with the 

Native American Graves Protection and 

Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), 25 U.S.C. 

3005, of the intent to repatriate cultural 

items under the control of the Peabody 

Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology, 

Harvard University, Cambridge, MA, 

that meet the definitions of sacred 

objects and objects of cultural 

patrimony under 25 U.S.C. 3001. 

This notice is published as part of the 

National Park Service’s administrative 

responsibilities under NAGPRA, 25 

U.S.C. 3003(d)(3). The determinations in 

this notice are the sole responsibility of 

the museum, institution, or Federal 

agency that has control of the Native 

American cultural items. The National 

Park Service is not responsible for the 

determinations in this notice. 

History and Description of the Cultural 

Items 

In 1889, one cultural item was 

removed from the White Earth Indian 

Reservation in northwest Minnesota. Dr. 

Walter James Hoffman acquired the 

item, a birchbark scroll, when studying 

the Midewiwin on behalf of the Bureau 

of American Ethnology. In 1891, the 

Bureau of American Ethnology donated 

the scroll to the United States National 

Museum, known today as the National 

Museum of Natural History. The 

Peabody Museum of Archaeology and 

Ethnology received the birchbark scroll 

in 1906, as part of an exchange with the 

National Museum of Natural History. 

The scroll measures 36 x 11 cm. and is 

inscribed with eight separate figures. 

Museum documentation describes it as 

a ‘‘Record of a song used in gathering of 

remedies.’’ The birchbark scroll has 

been identified as both a sacred object 

and an object of cultural patrimony. 

In the early 1900s, one cultural item 

was removed from the White Earth 

Indian Reservation in northwest 

Minnesota by Albert G. Heath, a 

collector and dealer of Native American 

objects in the early half of the 1900s. In 

March of 1952, the Denver Art Museum 

received the item, a birchbark scroll, as 

an anonymous donation through Julius 

Carlebach, a prominent New York art 

dealer. The Peabody Museum of 

Archaeology and Ethnology received the 

scroll in March of 1953, as part of an 

exchange with the Denver Art Museum. 

The birchbark scroll measures 134 x 31 

cm. and is made up of three separate 

panels that have been hand-stitched 

together with fiber twine. Each panel is 

inscribed with a detailed scene. 

Museum documentation describes the 

birchbark scroll as ‘‘used as a memory 

device in rites of the Midewiwin 

Society.’’ The birchbark scroll has been 

identified as both a sacred object and an 

object of cultural patrimony. 

Museum documentation and 

information obtained through 

consultation with representatives from 

the Minnesota Chippewa Tribe, 

Minnesota (White Earth Band), indicate 

these two cultural items are Ojibwe and 

are from the White Earth Indian 

Reservation, Minnesota. Historical and 

ethnographic data indicate that 

birchbark scrolls are part of the ritual 

items of the Midewiwin religion. 

Consultation evidence specifies the 

physical presence of the scrolls at 

Midewiwin ceremonies, as well as their 

importance to Mide practitioners in the 

dissemination of cosmological 

information and ceremonial practices. 

These two items meet the definition of 

sacred objects because they are specific 

ceremonial objects required by the 

Minnesota Chippewa Tribe, Minnesota 

(White Earth Band), to properly perform 

Midewiwin ceremonies. 

Historical and ethnographic data 

demonstrate that these two cultural 

items also have ongoing historical, 

traditional, and cultural importance 

central to the Minnesota Chippewa 

Tribe, Minnesota (White Earth Band). 

Consultation evidence indicates that 

birchbark scrolls are not owned or 

alienable by an individual; rather, 

individuals serve as caretakers for the 

scrolls. These caretakers serve as 

custodians of the community 

knowledge, collective legacy, and 

heritage contained within the birchbark 

scrolls. These two cultural items meet 

the definition of objects of cultural 

patrimony because they have ongoing 

historical, traditional, and cultural 

importance central to the Minnesota 

Chippewa Tribe, Minnesota (White 

Earth Band) for the proper performance 

of Midewin ceremonies, and could not 

have been alienated or conveyed by an 

individual. 

Determinations Made by the Peabody 

Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology, 

Harvard University 

Officials of the Peabody Museum of 

Archaeology and Ethnology, Harvard 

University have determined that: 

Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 179 / Monday, September 20, 2021 / Notices 52179 

• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(C), 

the two cultural items described above 

are specific ceremonial objects needed 

by traditional Native American religious 

leaders for the practice of traditional 

Native American religions by their 

present-day adherents. 

• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(D), 

the two 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. 

• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(2), there 

is a relationship of shared group 

identity that can be reasonably traced 

between the sacred objects and objects 

of cultural patrimony and the Minnesota 

Chippewa Tribe, Minnesota (White 

Earth Band). 

Additional Requestors and Disposition 

Lineal descendants or representatives 

of any Indian Tribe or Native Hawaiian 

organization not identified in this notice 

that wish to claim these cultural items 

should submit a written request with 

information in support of the claim to 

Patricia Capone, Peabody Museum of 

Archaeology and Ethnology, Harvard 

University, 11 Divinity Avenue, 

Cambridge, MA 02138, telephone (617)

fas.harvard.edu, by October 20, 2021. 

After that date, if no additional 

claimants have come forward, transfer 

of control of the sacred objects and 

objects of cultural patrimony to the 

Minnesota Chippewa Tribe, Minnesota 

(White Earth Band) may proceed. 

The Peabody Museum of Archaeology 

and Ethnology, Harvard University is 

responsible for notifying the Minnesota 

Chippewa Tribe, Minnesota (White 

Earth Band) that this notice has been 

published.
