National Park Service, Interior.
Notice.

AGENCY:

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 a cultural item in the
possession of the American Museum of
Natural History, New York, NY, that
meets the definitions of ‘‘sacred object’’
and ‘‘object 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

PO 00000

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 cultural
items. The National Park Service is not
responsible for the determinations in
this notice.
The cultural item is a fan–shaped
headdress with an attached mask. The
headdress is approximately 91
centimeters in length, 87 centimeters
wide, and 4 centimeters in depth. The
mask is a cloth, Loveland flour sack
with its brand marking still visible. It is
perforated with three holes near the
eyes and mouth. The headdress is
arranged in two ranks of wooden slats
connected by cross pieces in the center
and on either end, making the shape of
a fan. The top rank contains thirty–two
slats and both sides are painted with six
diamonds of red and yellow. The
bottom rank contains fourteen slats and
both sides are painted with three
triangles that are also red and yellow.
This cultural item was acquired by
Mrs. Amelia E. White, though the
circumstances of her acquisition are
unknown. In 1937, the museum
acquired the headdress from Mrs. White
as a gift. The museum accessioned the
item in 1937. The cultural affiliation of
the cultural item is San Carlos Apache,
as indicated by museum records and by
consultation evidence presented by the
Western Apache Working Group, which
consists of the authorized NAGPRA
representatives from the San Carlos
Apache Tribe of the San Carlos
Reservation, Arizona; Tonto Apache
Tribe of Arizona; White Mountain
Apache Tribe of the Fort Apache
Reservation, Arizona; and Yavapai–
Apache Nation of the Camp Verde
Indian Reservation, Arizona.
Officials of the American Museum of
Natural History have determined that,
pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (3)(D), the
one cultural item described above has
ongoing historical, traditional, or
cultural importance central to the
Native American group or culture itself,
rather than property owned by an
individual. Officials of the American
Museum of Natural History also have
determined that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C.
3001 (3)(C), 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. Lastly, officials of the
American Museum of Natural History
have determined that, pursuant to 25
U.S.C. 3001 (2), there is a relationship
of shared group identity that can be
reasonably traced between the sacred
object/object of cultural patrimony and
