Consultation
A detailed assessment of the human
remains and associated funerary object
was made by the Spurlock Museum
professional staff in consultation with
representatives of the Native Village of
Barrow Inupiat Traditional Government.
History and Description of the Remains
Between 1913 and 1917, human
remains representing, at minimum, 21
individuals were removed from Point
Barrow Headland, AK. The human
remains are 21 teeth acquired by the
Museum of Natural History at the
University of Illinois at UrbanaChampaign and later transferred to the
Spurlock Museum. The human remains
were identified as ‘‘possibly from grave
site’’ from the Point Barrow Headlands
and were acquired on the ‘‘Alaskan
Expedition.’’ Original ledgers from the
Museum of Natural History are missing
and no additional information has been
uncovered regarding further details of
the provenance of these items. The teeth
appear to include ten adult teeth, nine
teeth that are likely to be adult teeth,
and two teeth of a child. No known
individuals were identified. The
associated funerary object is one canid
tooth.

Museum

A detailed assessment of the human
remains was made by Organ Pipe Cactus
National Monument and Arizona State
Museum professional staff in
consultation with representatives of the
Ak Chin Indian Community of the
Maricopa (Ak Chin) Indian Reservation,
Arizona; Gila River Indian Community
of the Gila River Indian Reservation,
Arizona; Hopi Tribe of Arizona; and
Tohono O’odham Nation of Arizona
(hereafter referred to as ‘‘The Consulted
Tribes’’).
The following tribes were invited to
consult but did not participate: Cocopah
Tribe of Arizona; Colorado River Indian
Tribes of the Colorado River Indian
Reservation, Arizona and California;
Fort Mohave Indian Tribe of Arizona,
California & Nevada; Pascua Yaqui Tribe
of Arizona; Quechan Tribe of the Fort
Yuma Indian Reservation, California &
Arizona; Salt River Pima-Maricopa
Indian Community of the Salt River
Reservation, Arizona; and Zuni Tribe of
the Zuni Reservation, New Mexico
(hereafter referred to as ‘‘The Invited
Tribes’’).
History and Description of the Remains
Between 1951–1952, human remains
representing, at minimum, one
individual were removed from the
vicinity of the Bates Well Ranch Site in
Pima County, AZ, during a cooperative
archeological project between Arizona
State Museum and Organ Pipe Cactus
National Monument under the direction
of Paul H. Ezell. No known individuals
were identified. No associated funerary
objects are present.

Based upon the archeological context,
Ezell’s field notes, and osteological
analysis, the cremated human remains
have been determined to be Native
American dating to A.D. 500–1500. This
time range in southern Arizona is
commonly known to the archeological
community as the Pioneer, Colonial,
Sedentary, and Classic Hohokam
periods.
A relationship of shared group
identity can reasonably be traced
between members of the Hohokam
culture and the four southern O’odham
tribes of Arizona. The O’odham people
comprise four Federally recognized
Indian tribes (the Ak Chin Indian
Community of the Maricopa (Ak Chin)
Indian Reservation, Arizona; Gila River
Indian Community of the Gila River
Indian Reservation, Arizona; Salt River
Pima-Maricopa Indian Community of
the Salt River Reservation, Arizona; and
Tohono O’odham Nation of Arizona)
and one Indian group that is not
Federally recognized, the Hia C-ed
O’odham. An O’odham association with
lands lying directly to the west of the
Ajo Mountains, including Organ Pipe
Cactus National Monument, is
documented throughout the historic
period and into the 20th century.
O’odham oral histories describe the
end time of the Hohokam, when armies
gathered and marched on the Great
House communities (e.g., Casa Grande,
Pueblo Grande) and cast out the
Hohokam societies there. The armies
then occupied the conquered lands,
intermarrying with the remnants of the
Hohokam and ultimately becoming the
O’odham people. Other evidence of the
O’odham-Hohokam connection includes
similar settlement patterns, irrigation
systems, residence styles, and a possible
relationship between modern O’odham
kickball games and formal Hohokam
ball courts.
A relationship of shared group
identity can also reasonably be traced
between members of the Hohokam
culture and the Hopi Tribe of Arizona.
Hopi history is based, in large part, on
clan migration narratives. The Hopi
consider all of Arizona to be within
traditional Hopi lands, i.e., areas in and
through which Hopi clans are believed
to have migrated in the past. Hopi oral
history and the anthropological record
show that some clans originated in the
Salt-Gila region and were descended
from the Hohokam. After the fall of the
Great House communities, Hohokam
refugees were absorbed into the Hopi
culture.
A relationship of shared group
identity can also reasonably be traced
between members of the Hohokam
culture and the Zuni Tribe of the Zuni
