Notice is here given in accordance

Protection and Repatriation Act
VerDate Aug<31>2005

Jkt 211001
(NAGPRA), 25 U.S.C. 3005, of the intent
to repatriate cultural items in the
possession of the University of Kansas,
Lawrence, KS 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 cultural
items. The National Park Service is not
responsible for the determinations in
this notice.
The four cultural items are four Hopi
‘‘spirit friends’’ or Katsina masks (Matia,
Hopak, Woe, and Mudhead). In 1966,
Mrs. Agnese N. Haury purchased masks
of the Hopi deities Matia, Hopak, and
Woe at O’Reilly’s Plaza Art Galleries,
Inc., in New York. Mrs. Haury donated
the three Katsina masks to the
University of Kansas in 1990. In 1992,
the Karl Menninger Foundation donated
a mask of the Hopi deity Mudhead to
the University of Kansas. It is not
known when or how Dr. Menninger
acquired the Mudhead mask.
Representatives of the Hopi Tribe of
Arizona, acting on behalf of the
Katsinmomngwit (Hopi traditional
religious leaders), have identified the
four cultural items as being needed by
traditional Hopi religious leaders for the
practice of a traditional Native
American religion by their present-day
adherents. Representatives of the Hopi
Tribe of Arizona also have identified the
four cultural items as having ongoing
historical, traditional, and cultural
importance central to the culture itself,
and the cultural items could not be
alienated by any individual.
Officials of the University of Kansas
have determined that, pursuant to 25
U.S.C. 3001 (3)(C), the four 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. Officials of the University of
Kansas also have determined that,
pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (3)(D), the
four 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. Lastly, officials of the
University of Kansas 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 objects/objects of

cultural patrimony and the Hopi Tribe

Representatives of any other Indian
tribe that believes itself to be culturally
affiliated with the sacred objects/objects
of cultural patrimony should contact
Thomas A. Foor, NAGPRA Coordinator,
ARCC, University of Kansas, Spooner
Hall, 1340 Jayhawk Blvd., Room 5B,
Lawrence, KS 66045–7500, telephone
(785) 766–5476, before April 16, 2007.
Repatriation of the sacred objects/
objects of cultural patrimony to the
Hopi Tribe of Arizona may proceed after
that date if no additional claimants
come forward.
The University of Kansas is
responsible for notifying the Hopi Tribe
of Arizona that this notice has been
published.
