SUMMARY:
Abstract of Information Available
A total of three cultural items have
been requested for repatriation. The
three objects of cultural patrimony are a
grass bundle coiled flat basket, a coiled
basket, and a fiber sandal. 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.
The site where the fiber sandal was
discovered (Kingman, AZ) is located on
the aboriginal lands of the Hualapai
Tribe. The fiber sandal was found by SF
State Professor Gary Paul and brought
back to campus.
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.
