SSCD

The Split and Shared Collections Database (SSCD) is an initiative of the Southeastern NAGPRA Community of Practice (SNACP). SNACP is a collective learning environment that develops resources to support regional compliance with the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA). Please visit this link for information about SNACP.

The SSCD is intended to facilitate identification and reunification of split/shared collections that include Ancestors/Relatives/Individuals and cultural belongings from the Southeast United States. The database is a tool to support NAGPRA consultation and inter-museum conversations about split/shared collections; it does not replace consultation.

The database will NOT be made available to collectors, members of the general public, reporters/journalists/media, or researchers seeking data for academic or commercial use.
