Abstract of Information Available
A total of two cultural items have
been requested for repatriation. The two
objects of cultural patrimony are a grass
bundle coiled bowl and a large grass
bundle coiled bowl basket. These two
baskets were donated to the Treganza
Anthropology Museum (TAM) at San
Francisco State University in the 1960s
and 1970s. When the TAM closed in
2012, all the Native American items
were transferred to the SF State
NAGPRA Program. Both baskets are
from the Southwest Collection and there
are no records of the donors at SF State.
It was once common practice by
museums to use chemicals on cultural
items to prevent deterioration by mold,
insects, and moisture. To date, the SF
State NAGPRA Program has no records
documenting use of chemicals at our
facilities, and we currently do not use
chemicals on any cultural items. A
former SF State professor, Dr. Michael
Moratto, stated that staff used glues,
polyvinyl acetate, and a solution called
Glyptol to mend and stabilize cultural
objects in the past. Prior non-invasive
and non-destructive hazardous chemical
tests conducted at the SF State NAGPRA
Program repositories show arsenic,
mercury, and/or lead in some storage
containers, surfaces, and certain cultural
items.
Determinations
The SF State NAGPRA Program has
determined that:

items are considered a single request
