About NAGPRA DATABASES
National NAGPRA
maintains several online databases designed to provide access to
information on a variety of NAGPRA-related topics. All of the databases
have search capabilities that allow the user to
locate
specific information. The databases are typically updated monthly. We understand that institutions and tribes may discover errors or matters that require updating, and we are pleased to work with them on an ongoing basis. Please contact the database administrator, on how to make corrections to the databases.
- Notices
of Intent to Repatriate (NIR) Database is a searchable library of published
Federal Register notices pertaining to Native American unassociated
funerary objects, sacred objects, and objects of cultural patrimony. Updated Aug 28, 2012
- Culturally
Unidentifiable (CUI) Native American Inventories Database provides information
about Native American human remains that have been determined
to be culturally unidentifiable and has been compiled on behalf of the Review Committee pursuant to 43 CFR 10.10 (g). The database summarizes the inventory information submitted by museums and Federal agencies and is not meant to be an exact copy of their inventory data. Though an effort has been made to verify the accuracy of the data presented in this database, slight discrepancies between these and the actual museum and agency inventories may remain. Efforts to verify data are ongoing.
The database now includes 17,920 records describing 127,617 Native American human remains and 941,190 associated funerary objects inventoried by 677 museums and Federal agencies. Among the human remains included here are 5,911 that have been culturally affiliated since they were first inventoried as culturally unidentifiable. New templates for notices pursuant to 43 CFR 10.11 are available for use in preparing draft Federal Register notices. View a listing of Notices of Inventory Completion using the new CUI rule. Corrections, updates, and additions to this database will be made as museums and agencies continue to verify the data that have been entered, or submit revised inventories. Updated Sep 2012
- Culturally Affiliated (CA) Native American Inventories Database. This database represents an extensive tool of reference for anyone wishing to have a snapshot on the current status of many of the Native American human remains that have been culturally affiliated as a result of consultation with tribes and Native Hawaiian organizations. All individuals on this database should be represented in a Notice of Inventory Completion.
