Ethnographic Collections
Manager: Dr. Kelley Hays-Gilpin
NAU’s ethnographic collections consists of items from around the world that have been donated to the department over the past 70 years. These are available for research and display but have not yet been adequately cataloged and stored for preservation and access.
The collection includes:
- Native North American dolls, moccasins, clothing, and baskets;
- Navajo weavings;
- tools and implements from Congo;
- Australian Aboriginal weapons; and
- tourist art from around the world.
