Collections and Archives

At the Choctaw Cultural Center is a secure, climate-controlled area built to house the Cultural Center’s Collections and Archives. This state-of-the-art area is devoted to the care of cultural items, collections pieces and some of the Nation’s most important historical documents. These items are preserved and stored so future generations of Choctaws, as well as visiting scholars, may further their education on Choctaw history and culture.
