History and Description of the Cultural 

Item 

On December 12, 1931, The NelsonAtkins Museum of Art purchased a 

cultural item from the Museum of the 

American Indian, Heye Foundation, in 

New York, NY, and accessioned it on 

January 1, 1931. The object of cultural 

patrimony is one woven bag. 

Bags of this kind represent an ancient 

tradition of weaving by the Osage 

women. Until trade yarn was adopted 

by Osage weavers following European 

contact, such bags were woven using 

buffalo hair. This woven bag was 

consecrated and made waxobe (sacred) 

during ceremonies conducted by Osage 

clan priests. It was an intrinsic part of 

the Ga-hi’-ge O-k’on (Rite of the Chiefs) 

ceremony, where it symbolized a 

woman’s vocation. 

Determinations Made by The Nelson 

Gallery Foundation 

Officials of The Nelson Gallery 

Foundation have determined that: 

• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(D), 

the one cultural item 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 object of cultural patrimony 

and The Osage Nation (previously listed 

as Osage Tribe). 

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 this cultural item 

should submit a written request with 

information in support of the claim to 

Jennifer Byers, Assistant to the Deputy 

Director of Curatorial Affairs, The 

Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, 4525 

Oak Street, Kansas City, MO 64111, 

telephone (816) 751–1320, email 

jbyers@nelson-atkins.org, by July 27, 

2022. After that date, if no additional 

claimants have come forward, transfer 

of control of the object of cultural 

patrimony to The Osage Nation 

(previously listed as Osage Tribe) may 

proceed. 

The Nelson Gallery Foundation is 

responsible for notifying The Osage 

Nation (previously listed as Osage Tribe) 

that this notice has been published.
