SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
History and Description of the Cultural
Items
In the early 1900s, 11 cultural items
were removed from the Winnebago
Tribe of Nebraska community. Emil
Lenders, a German-American artist,
traveled throughout the mid- and
western United States in the early 1900s
and collected many items from
Indigenous communities and from Wild
West shows. The Thomas Gilcrease
Foundation purchased Emil Lenders’
collection of approximately 600 items in
1950, and it was transferred to the City
of Tulsa in 1955. The 11 sacred objects
and objects of cultural patrimony are 10
decorated otter bags (accession numbers
84.694, 84.701, 84.702, 84.703, 84.704,
84.705, 84.706, 84.707, 84.709, 85.55)
and one war bundle (accession numbers
84.1752a–m, 73.244, 82.44).
Likely around the turn of the century,
two cultural items were removed from
the Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska
community. An unknown person
acquired these items, which were likely
purchased by the Thomas Gilcrease
Foundation in the mid-20th century.
The items were transferred to the City
of Tulsa in 1955. The two sacred objects
and objects of cultural patrimony are
decorated otter bags (accession numbers
84.695 and 84.708).
All of these cultural items were
determined to be culturally affiliated
with the Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska
during consultation with the Tribe. The
documentation and records at the
museum identify these items as
Winnebago. These items are still used in
current traditional ceremonies and are
communally owned and cannot be
legally separated from the originating
community by an individual.

Determinations Made by the Gilcrease
Museum
Officials of the Gilcrease Museum
have determined that:
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(C),
the 13 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(3)(D),
the 13 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.
• 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 objects
of cultural patrimony and the
Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska.
Additional Requestors and Disposition

of any Indian Tribe or Native Hawaiian
organization not identified in this notice

History and Description of the Cultural
Item
In 1994, Frederick W. Dockstader,
former Director of the Museum of the
American Indian of the Heye
Foundation, New York City, gave the
Yager Museum of Art & Culture at
Hartwick College one cultural item that
he described as a family heirloom of the
Quinney Family that had been among
the belongings of John Wannuaucon
Quinney (1797–1855), Sachem of the
Stockbridge Tribe of Indians (later the
Stockbridge Munsee Community,
Wisconsin). It is unclear how
Dockstader acquired the object, and it is
