A total of one cultural item has been
requested for repatriation. The one
object of cultural patrimony is a Beaver
Chilkat Robe (S’igeidi Naaxein), MHS

was purchased in 1946 from the Alaska
Native Service, Juneau, AK, by
Frederick and Elizabeth Ayer for sale at
the Mille Lacs Trading Post in Mille
Lacs, MN; donated to the Minnesota
Historical Society by Jeanette Ayer in

Willard (Tlingit name Aklé, of the
Kaawaantaan clan, Gooch Hit (Wolf
House), Klukwan) as an item for
purchase.
Determinations
The Minnesota Historical Society has
determined that:

patrimony described in this notice has
ongoing historical, traditional, or

clan, lineage, ceremonial society, or

Native American traditional knowledge
of an Indian Tribe or Native Hawaiian
organization.
• There is a reasonable connection
between the cultural item described in
