Indiana, where they became part of a
private collection of Native American
antiquities, art, and cultural heritage. In
the spring of 2014, these items were
seized by the FBI as part of a criminal
investigation. The 12 items are
identified as catlinite pipes from the
Swan Creek archeological site (39WW7),
a known ancestral Arikara and Mandan
village located on the Missouri River, in
Walworth County, South Dakota. Based
on information obtained during
consultation with an official
representative of the Three Affiliated
Tribes of the Fort Berthold Reservation,
North Dakota, and on archeological
information contained in reports for the
Swan Creek site, the FBI has determined
that the pipes are culturally affiliated
with that Indian Tribe.

Bureau of Investigation
Officials of the Federal Bureau of
Investigation have determined that:
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(C),
the 12 cultural items 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
Three Affiliated Tribes of the Fort
Berthold Reservation, North Dakota.
