Research
SHI routinely assists university and graduate students in their studies of Alaska Natives and supports research by scholars studying Southeast Alaska Native culture. For example, SHI recently helped Canada scientists conducting a DNA study to find relatives of a young man named Kwaday Dan Ts’ inchi — whose 500-year-old body was discovered on a British Columbia glacier in 1999 (News Article). SHI also hosts visiting scholars doing research in Alaska. SHI in 2002 hosted a scholar studying a collection of old Southeast Alaska Native horn spoons for the Harvard University Peabody Museum (News Article; Photos).
