Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 62 / Friday, April 1, 2005 / Notices Physical examination of the human remains reveals skeletal and dental morphological traits common in Native American populations. The human remains and associated funerary object are believed to be associated with the Carden Bottoms complex, a Mississippian period archeological manifestation common along the Lower Arkansas River, including the area of Conway, Pulaski, and Yell Counties, Arkansas. The identity of the Carden Bottoms complex descendents is controversial. In 1542 and 1673, European travelers recorded the names of towns along the lower Arkansas River that appear to be derived from the Tunica language. Carden Bottoms complex ceramic traditions are similar to ceramic wares recovered from known 18th-century Tunica sites. Quapaw oral traditions describe their late arrival and expulsion of the Tunica from the lower Arkansas River area. The Quapaw tribe dominated that area when sustained European occupation of the lower Arkansas River began around 1700. The Osage tribe seasonally hunted the Ozark Highlands north of the Arkansas River Valley in the 18th century and traveled along the Arkansas River. In 1808. the Osage ceded the area north of the Arkansas River, including the area of Conway County, to the United States. In 1818, the Quapaw ceded the area south of the Arkansas River, including the area of Pulaski and Yell Counties, to the United States. Officials of the University of Arkansas have determined that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (9-10), the human remains described above represent the physical remains of 12 individuals of Native American ancestry. Officials of the University of Arkansas also have determined that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (3)(A), the one object described above is reasonably believed to have been placed with or near human remains at the time of death or later as part of the death rite or ceremony. Lastly, officials of the University of Arkansas have determined that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (2), there is a relationship of shared group identity that can be reasonably traced between the Native American human remains and associated funerary object and the Quapaw Tribe of Indians, Oklahoma and the Tunica-Biloxi Indian Tribe of Louisiana. Representatives of any other Indian tribe that believes itself to be culturally affiliated with the human remains should contact Mary Suter, Curator of Collections, The University Museum, University of Arkansas, Biomass Research Center, Fayetteville, AR 72701, telephone (479) 575-3456, before May 2, VerDate jul<14>2003 17:15 Mar 31, 2005 Jkt 205001 2005. Repatriation of the human remains to the Quapaw Tribe of Indians, Oklahoma and the Tunica-Biloxi Indian Tribe of Louisiana may proceed after that date if no additional claimants come forward. The University of Arkansas is responsible for notifying the Osage Tribe, Oklahoma; Quapaw Tribe of Indians, Oklahoma; and Tunica-Biloxi Indian Tribe of Louisiana that this notice has been published.
