unassociated funerary object is one lot
of cordage. In an unknown year, Mr.
Willy Stahl (830.G) collected material
from Mishopshnow (CA–SBa–7),
Carpinteria, Carpinteria State Beach, in
Santa Barbara County, CA. Mr. Stahl
gifted the cultural item to the Southwest
Museum (now part of the Autry
Museum of the American West) in 1942.
Mishopshnow (CA–SBa–7) is a
Chumash village and cemetery site that
dates to the Late Period (1100 AD to
contact).
A total of one cultural item has been
requested for repatriation. The one
unassociated funerary object is one
fishhook. In 1930, Mr. Bruce Bryan
(1864.G) collected the cultural item
from a burial at Mishopshnow (CA–
SBA–7) Carpinteria, Carpinteria State
Beach, in Santa Barbara County, CA. Mr.
Bryan gifted the cultural item in 1966 to
the Southwest Museum.
A total of eight cultural items have
been requested for repatriation. The
eight unassociated funerary objects are
eight trade beads. The trade beads were
found in the museum collection (5.C.98)
with no object number in a box with
cultural material from Misphopshnow/
Carpinteria from the Mr. Willy Stahla
(830.G) collection. Thus, it is likely they
came from that collection, exact
collection number could not be found.
A total of 186 cultural items have
been requested for repatriation. The 186
unassociated funerary objects are one lot
of shell beads (missing), 137 shell beads,
45 shell beads, and three ochre
fragments. At an unknown date, Mr.
Harry Clayton Davis (1052.G), and
members of the Archaeological Society
of Southern California (ASSC), a nonprofessional group, collected cultural
items from a sandbank at Mishopshnow
Village (CA–SBa–7) in Carpinteria,
Carpinteria State Beach, Santa Barbara
County, CA. Mr. Davis’s wife gifted the
cultural items to the Southwest Museum
in 1946.
A total of five cultural items have
been requested for repatriation. The five
unassociated funerary objects are one
bone bead and four shell beads. At an
unknown date, Mr. Francis H. Elmore
collected cultural items from near the
tar pits at Mishopshnow (CA–SBa–7), in
Carpinteria, Carpinteria State Beach,
Santa Barbara County, CA. Mr. Elmore
gifted the cultural items to the

Abstract of Information Available
A total of one cultural item is
requested for repatriation. The one
object of cultural patrimony is a fern
and conifer basket cap. This basket cap
was 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. The basket cap is
from the Northwest California Basket
Collection and there are no records of
the donor 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.
