Organization
of the Images
The organization of the image collection
follows that of the Designated List published in the Federal Register
notice of September 23, 1997. Images of objects that illustrate some of
the seven major categories are provided above. Each Designated List Section
has one page of thumbnail images. Each thumbnail image on the thumbnail
page is linked to an information page and a full size image of the artifact.
The image database may also be searched by keyword.
The images presented here
are selected examples only and do not illustrate comprehensively every
category or type of object subject to importation restrictions. Refer to
the Federal Register notices in the sidebar for the definitive list
of archaeological artifacts subject to U.S. import restrictions. Any artifact
accompanied by an export permit from its country of origin may enter the
U.S. without restriction.
