Auction houses selling Native cultural items

WASHINGTON – It is that time of year again when a slew of domestic and international auction houses are selling sensitive Native American cultural heritage items. According to the Association of American Indian Affairs, it has so far in this year investigated 66 domestic and foreign auctions that are selling at least 3,000 items that were likely stolen burial objects or are cultural and sacred patrimony owned by one of the 574 federally recognized Native nations or 300 other tribal nations and groups in the United States.  AAIA officials said there is a long history of theft and looting of Native American human remains, burial objects and other sensitive sacred and cultural patrimony. This theft and looting has created a commercial enterprise in the sale of those items, now re-labeled as Native American “art,” “artifacts” and “antiquities,” AAAI officials said.
