3005, of the intent to repatriate cultural
items under the control of the New York
State Museum, Albany, NY, that meet
the definition of sacred objects 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
Item(s)
In 1898, the New York State Museum
acquired three cultural items from
members of the Seneca-Cayuga Tribe of
Oklahoma. The three sacred objects are
medicine masks donated by Harriet
Maxwell Converse of New York City,
NY (E–37012, E–37030, E–37621).
Museum records indicate the masks are
culturally affiliated with the SenecaCayuga Tribe of Oklahoma.
Consultation with members of the
Haudenosaunee Standing Committee on
Burial Rules and Regulations has
identified the medicine masks as being
needed for the practice of traditional
Native American religions by presentday adherents. Museum documentation
supported by consultation with the
Seneca-Cayuga Tribe of Oklahoma
indicates that these medicine faces are
culturally affiliated with the SenecaCayuga Tribe of Oklahoma.
Determinations Made by the New York
State Museum
Officials of the New York State
Museum have determined that:
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(C),
the three 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(2), there
is a relationship of shared group
identity that can be reasonably traced
between the sacred objects and the
Seneca-Cayuga Tribe of Oklahoma.
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
