We welcome feedback. The web database is not a complete record of the Museum's
anthropological holdings and documentation for a collection item will vary due to when and how it
was collected as well as how recently it was accessed. While efforts are made to ensure the
accuracy of the information available on this website, some content may contain errors. We work
