Welcome to the Peabody Museum Collections Online. In accordance with the Peabody Museum’s commitment to ethical stewardship please take note that:
Collections and collections documentation may reflect past collecting practices and methods of analysis that are no longer acceptable. The Peabody Museum is committed to addressing problematic language in its database. Our staff continually update database records, striving for culturally appropriate descriptions and access.
Collections Online may contain culturally sensitive content, and some culturally sensitive records and/or images may not be publicly accessible, such as those falling under the Research Policy for NAGPRA Collections. If you are a member of an Indigenous community and would like assistance seeking additional information on collections from your community, please email pmresearch@fas.harvard.edu.
We welcome your feedback. Please email your comments to pmcollections@fas.harvard.edu.
