The Alutiiq Museum and Archaeological Repository in Kodiak, Alaska, and the Peabody Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology, Cambridge MA, partnered together to study and preserve endangered Alaska Native material culture and traditional knowledge.

This article shares the working process to achieve the study, preservation, educational exchange, and accessibility of historically significant Alutiiq material culture and knowledge. Results of the project’s activities including university and community engagement, and the two museums’ current and ongoing partnership are highlighted.
