of pipes, one lot of sculptures, one lot
of spears, two lots of photographs, three
lots of instruments, four lots of knives/
sheaths, five lots of personal effects, and
16 lots of regalia. Joseph Galvan was of
Yaqui descent and moved to Tejon
Ranch in 1916, at the age of 15 years,
to live with his Aunt Angela and his
uncle Paiute Chief Juan Lozada, who
adopted Mr. Galvan into the Paiute
community. Galvan made most of these
objects, and utilized the others during
his time working as a vaquero, at the
San Diego Zoo, in the San Luis Rey
parades, and/or for dances he performed
in. Some of the objects were made as
gifts for specific family members. Of the
objects Galvan made, many are either
influenced by or a direct recreation of
Paiute and Great Basin artistry and
craftsmanship. A portion of the objects
in this collection were given to Roscoe
Elwood Hazard, who befriended the
Galvan family. In 1972, Hazard donated
his extensive collection of Western and
Western-themed memorabilia to the
State of California, where Governor
Reagan then donated the collection to
the California Department of Parks and
Recreation.
Determinations
The California Department of Parks
and Recreation has determined that:
• The 33 sacred objects described in

objects needed by a traditional Native
American religious leader for presentday adherents to practice traditional

connected to the cultural items
described in this notice.
