The San Diego Museum of Man has long had outstanding anthropological collections. Two of their most important are the Oaxacan Indian costumes and the Southwest Native American textile collection. The Oaxacan collection consists of 800 pieces collected from over 150 villages and the Southwest textile collection contains representations of a wide variety of styles, weaves, and time periods of objects made by Navajo, Rio Grande Pueblo, Hopi, and Rio Grande Spanish-Americans. Both collections are well documented; they are irreplaceable, represen- ting old traditions that are disappearing due to contact with Western European and American cultures. The existing storage facilities for these textiles is limited and detrimental to the textiles. Cabinetry is dated and does not meet contemporary standards of collections management retard the deteriora- tion of the collections due overcrowding, pollution, fumes from untreated wooden shelving, dust, and fading due to light. The new equipment will insure the safety of the collection and allow resear- chers greater access.

圣地亚哥人类博物馆长期以来一直收藏着杰出的人类学藏品。其中最重要的两个是瓦哈卡印第安人服装和西南印第安人纺织品收藏。瓦哈卡收藏品包括从150多个村庄收集的800件作品，西南纺织品收藏品包括纳瓦霍人、大普韦布洛人、霍皮人和大西班牙裔美国人制作的各种风格、编织和时期的物品。这两个集合都有很好的记录；它们是不可替代的，代表着由于与西欧和美国文化接触而正在消失的古老传统。现有储存这些纺织品的设施有限，对纺织品有害。橱柜陈旧，不符合当代馆藏管理标准，由于过度拥挤、污染、未经处理的木架子产生的烟雾、灰尘和光线引起的褪色，延缓了馆藏的退化。新设备将确保收集的安全，并允许研究人员更多地访问。
