SUMMARY:
Description
The 83 cultural items listed in this
notice were removed from several
locations in the State of New York and
Ontario, Canada, beginning in 1965. Of
this number, 79 cultural items were
purchased by collectors Mary and
Francis Crane, who donated their
collection to the Denver Museum of
Nature & Science (then the Denver
Museum of Natural History) between
1968 and 1983. In 1965, the Cranes
purchased from Gerald Fenstermaker
eight Medicine Faces (AC.8544,
AC.9717, AC.9722, AC.9724, AC.9727,
AC.9728, AC.9729, AC.9742); two Corn
Husk Faces (AC.9709, AC.9711); two
Husk Face Figurines comprising a set

(AC.9825A–B); three Medicine Face
Figurines comprising a set (AC.9826A–
C); nine Medicine Face Figurines
comprising a set (AC.8554A–I); and 10
Medicine Face Figurines comprising a
set (AC.11957A–J). These cultural items
had been removed from various
locations in the State of New York and
Ontario, Canada. Between 1965 and
1967, the Cranes purchased from
Howard B. Roloff three Corn Husk Faces
(AC.8341, AC.8381 AC.9714); 25
Medicine Faces (AC.8375, AC.8379,
AC.8390, AC.8391, AC.8444, AC.10284,
AC.10285, AC.10319, AC.10330,
AC.10333A–K, AC.8406A–E); 12
Medicine Face Figurines comprising a
set (AC.8285A–L); and four Medicine
Face Figurines comprising a set
(AC.10328). These cultural items had
been acquired from the Six Nations of
the Grand River Reserve in Ontario,
Canada. In 1969, the Cranes purchased
a figurine wearing a Medicine Face from
the Las Novedades Gallery in Taos, NM
(AC.7684). The figurine is identified as
Haudenosaunee.
In 1990, one Medicine Face (A1648.1)
was transferred from the Museum’s
Education Collection to its
Anthropology Collection. In 1999,
during a NAGPRA consultation,
representatives of the Haudenosaunee
Confederacy suggested that this cultural
item is a copy of an older mask made
by Elon Webster, an Onondaga carver
from the Tonawanda Reservation in
New York.
In 1989, the Museum purchased three
cultural items from William H. Hensler
of Aurora, CO. Hensler had acquired
these items from Iroqrafts, an arts and
crafts store located on the Six Nations
of the Grand River Reserve in Canada.
The items are three Medicine Faces
(A1633.1, A1633.2, and A1633.3).
Museum records indicate that A1633.1
and A1633.2 were made by ‘‘He Keeps
Ice’’ and are affiliated with the Cayuga
Wolf clan, and that A1633.3 was made
by ‘‘Across the River’’ and is affiliated
with the Mohawk Turtle Clan.
The Denver Museum of Nature &
Science acknowledges that the
Haudenosaunee Confederacy predates
the establishment of the geopolitical
borders that separate its territories.
Haudenosaunee communities maintain
unbroken political, cultural, spiritual,
and economic ties to their lands. The
cultural items listed in this notice
belong to the Confederacy, and as
Keepers of the Central Fire of the
Haudenosaunee, the Onondaga Nation
is responsible for their care and
protection. In a letter dated Feb. 21,
2022, Christine G. Abrams, Acting Chair
of the Haudenosaunee Standing
Committee on Burial Rules and
