Disclaimer: The Field Museum's online Anthropology Collections Database
may contain cultural items and historical records that are culturally sensitive. Some records
may also include offensive language. These records do not reflect the Field Museum's
current viewpoint but rather the social attitudes and circumstances of the time period
when items were collected or cataloged. Visitors to this site are also advised that
some records may contain names, images, and recordings of deceased individuals and
that some records document human remains.
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 with descendant communities around the world to interpret the
collections in order to promote a greater understanding of global heritage and, through
consultation, will remove information that is inaccurate or inappropriate. We encourage
and welcome members of descendant communities, scholars, and others to contact us to
confirm or clarify data found here.
