The majority of the objects in this selection were received from William O. Gross Jr., who donated the bulk of his collection to the OJAC in the summer of 1986, with the remainder following his death in 1997. One of the important facets of the Gross Collection is that it is pan-cultural, representing most of the Meso-American pre-conquest cultures, as well as Peruvian cultures.
