cultural item under the control of the
Birmingham Museum of Art,
Birmingham, AL, that meets the
definition of an unassociated funerary
object 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
Sometime in the early 20th century,
this cultural item was removed from a
grave in Wrangell, AK. It was acquired
by Axel Rasmussen before his death in
1945. In 1948, it was acquired by the
Portland Art Museum (PAM). In 1955–
56, the PAM deaccessioned the object
and sold it to the Birmingham Museum
of Art. The unassociated funerary object
is a Woodzakaa (Cane), museum
accession number 1956.48.218.
Based on consultation with the
Central Council of the Tlingit & Haida
Indian Tribes, the Birmingham Museum
of Art can reasonably show that this
unassociated funerary object is
culturally affiliated with the Tlingit and
Haida Indian Tribes.

Sometime in the 20th century, two
cultural items were removed from
Wrangell, AK. One of the objects, a
S’aaxw (hat), was acquired by Axel
Rasmussen prior to his death in 1945. In
1948, it was acquired by the Portland
Art Museum (PAM). In 1955–56, the
PAM deaccessioned the object and sold
it to the Birmingham Museum of Art
(accession number 1956.48.26).
The other object, a Keet Koowaal
(Killerwhale with a Hole in its Fin), was
purchased by the Birmingham Museum
of Art in 2000 from Axis Gallery in NY
(accession number 2000.83). Axis
Gallery had purchased it in May 2000
from Mac Grimmer, who had purchased
it from Alan Steele in April 2000.
According to Axis Gallery, this object
was once in the collection of Patricia
Withof, and prior to that, it was in an
English private collection.
