Artifact History

Credit Line/Dedication Reginald and Gladys Laubin Collection
Reproduction Yes, Although it is an original design, this bag is intended to be a reproduction of a Native American cultural artifact. Thus for the purposes of this museum and for NAGPRA compliance, it is considered a reproduction and a non-native creation of an object intended to represent a traditional Native American artifact type.
