Amendment
This notice removes five cultural items from a published in a Notice of Intent to Repatriate Cultural Items in the Federal Register (76 FR 9049-9051, February 16, 2011). Repatriation of five cultural items in the original Notice of Intent to Repatriate Cultural Items has not occurred. In the Federal Register (76 FR 9050, February 16, 2011), paragraphs 3 through 11 are removed. The five cultural items are one Wolf Helmet (catalog number NA8507), one Shark Helmet (29-1-1), one Ganook Hat (NA6864), one Noble Killer Hat (NA11741), and one Eagle Hat (NA11742). This amendment is being made upon the resolution of a competing claim for the five Tlingit Kaagwaantaan Clan cultural items. A new notice of intent to repatriate cultural items will follow.
The Penn Museum is responsible for sending a copy of this notice to the Central Council of Tlingit and Haida Indian Tribes of Alaska, a Federally-recognized Indian Tribe, acting on behalf of the Tlingit Kaagwaantaan Clan of Sitka, AK.
