Abstract of Information Available
A total of one cultural item has been
requested for repatriation. The one
object of cultural patrimony is a
‘‘Hohokam Indian Paint Palette’’. The
Paint Palette is made of slate, was found
in the foothills of the Santa Catalina
Mountains north of Tucson, Arizona,
and was donated to the Cincinnati
Museum of Natural History by Mr. and
Mrs. Frank B. Schuler of Hamilton,
Ohio. It was accessioned in 1952 (Acc.
745) and was assigned catalog number
A46688. The Cincinnati Museum Center
has no records indicating that this Paint
Palette was exposed to any hazardous
substances while in the stewardship of
the Museum.
Through consultation, it has been
determined that Paint Palettes made by
Hohokam ancestors were used for
mixing paints and/or dried medicinal
plants. Traditional medicine persons of
today on the Tohono O’odham Nation
regard these palettes as objects of
religious importance that were used in
association with the preparation of
materials for religious ceremonies.
Determinations
The Cincinnati Museum Center has
determined that:
• The one object of cultural
patrimony described in this notice has
ongoing historical, traditional, or
cultural importance central to the
Native American group, including any
constituent sub-group (such as a band,
clan, lineage, ceremonial society, or
other subdivision), according to the
Native American traditional knowledge
of an Indian Tribe or Native Hawaiian
organization.
• There is a reasonable connection
between the cultural item described in
this notice and the Tohono O’odham
Nation of Arizona.
Requests for Repatriation
Additional, written requests for
repatriation of the cultural item in this
notice must be sent to the authorized
representative identified in this notice
under ADDRESSES. Requests for
repatriation may be submitted by any
lineal descendant, Indian Tribe, or
Native Hawaiian organization not
identified in this notice who shows, by
a preponderance of the evidence, that
the requestor is a lineal descendant or
a culturally affiliated Indian Tribe or
Native Hawaiian organization.
Repatriation of the cultural item in
this notice to a requestor may occur on
or after January 13, 2025. If competing
requests for repatriation are received,
the Cincinnati Museum Center must
determine the most appropriate
