At some time after April 13, 1931, the
State Historical Society of Iowa
purchased a grizzly bear claw necklace
from Sam Slick, a member of the
Meskwaki Tribe (Sac & Fox Tribe of the
Mississippi in Iowa). Correspondence
related to the purchase between curator
Edgar R. Harlan and Sam Slick describe
the necklace and its origin. The
necklace was cataloged a B1729 and has
been in control of the museum since
1931. The necklace is made of otter fur
with thirty-one grizzly bear claws
separated by glass beads. The otter fur
is decorated with two heart-shaped and
one square beaded applique.
During consultation, Johnathan
Buffalo, Director of Historic
Preservation, for the Sac & Fox Tribe of
the Mississippi in Iowa, explained that
several bear claw necklaces belonging to
different clans were sold or otherwise
left the tribe during the time period
between 1920 and 1940. The necklaces
were passed down in the families of the
different clans and each clan held a
position on the traditional tribal
council. The tribe provided evidence
that the necklace is an object of cultural
patrimony having ongoing historical,
traditional, or cultural importance to the
tribe. The necklace is part of a group of
necklaces that symbolizes tribal
governance and is inalienable. Tribal
member, Sam Slick, as an individual,
did not have the right to sell the
necklace.
