cultural item under the control of the
Heard Museum, Phoenix, AZ, that meets
the definition 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

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
In 1907, one cultural item was created
by Jack Tonto (a.k.a. Tonto Jack) for
Taylor Gabbard, who lived in the
Arizona Territory. The cultural item was
passed down to his descendants,
exhibited at a branch of the Phoenix
Public Library for a number of years,
and published online. On April 17,
2014, the cultural item was donated to
the Heard Museum and accessioned into
their collection. The cultural item is a
painted hide.
Representatives of 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 YavapaiApache Nation of the Camp Verde
Indian Reservation, Arizona, have
identified the painted hide as affiliated
with the Yavapai-Apache Nation of the
Camp Verde Indian Reservation,
Arizona. They further identify imagery
on the hide as having been made for a
specific use in a specific ceremony. The
practitioner of this ceremony used this
cultural item, along with specific songs
and prayers to animate the cultural item
with power from the creation and
specific products of the creation, for the
purpose of blessing. Medicine people
today practice this ceremony as it has
always been practiced. Due to the
nature, the beliefs, and the items
integral to this ceremony, the hide has
ongoing historical, traditional, and
cultural importance central to Western
Apache culture.
The last part of the ceremony for
which this item was made, following
the death of the individual for whom it
was made, involves placing the hide in
a secure location away from human
habitation. Failing to put this hide away
properly after its more active use or
removing this item from its resting
place, thus interrupting the unfolding
ritual, poses great danger to those who
come in contact with it. Putting the item
away properly can only be
