AGENCY:
ACTION:
Notice is here given in accordance
with the Native American Graves
Protection and Repatriation Act
(NAGPRA), 25 U.S.C. 3003, of the
completion of an inventory of human
remains in the possession of the
Peabody Museum of Archaeology and
Ethnology, Harvard University,
Cambridge, MA. The human remains
were removed from Pecos Pueblo, San
Miguel County, NM.
This notice is published as part of the
National Park Service’s administrative
responsibilities under NAGPRA, 25
U.S.C. 3003 (d)(3). The determinations
in this notice are the sole responsibility
of the museum, institution, or Federal
agency that has control of the Native
American human remains. The National
Park Service is not responsible for the
determinations in this notice.
A detailed assessment of the human
remains was made by Peabody Museum
of Archaeology and Ethnology
professional staff in consultation with
representatives of the Fort McDowell
Yavapai Nation, Arizona; Hopi Tribe of
Arizona; Jicarilla Apache Nation, New
Mexico; Mescalero Apache Tribe of the
Mescalero Reservation, New Mexico;
Navajo Nation, Arizona, New Mexico &

Between 1914 and 1916, human
remains representing a minimum of two
individuals were removed from Pecos
Pueblo in San Miguel County, NM, by
A.V. Kidder during the Andover Pecos
Expedition. The human remains were
donated to the Peabody Museum of
Archaeology and Ethnology by the
Andover Archaeological Department in
1919. No known individuals were
identified. No associated funerary
objects are present.
At an unknown date, human remains
representing a minimum of eight
individuals were removed from Pecos
Pueblo in San Miguel County, NM, by
an unknown person. The human
remains were received by the Peabody
Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology
at an unknown date and were
accessioned into the museum
collections in 2000. No known
individuals were identified. No
associated funerary objects are present.
The ceramic types recovered from
Pecos Pueblo indicate that the site was
occupied into the Historic period (circa
A.D. 1300–1700). Historic records
document occupation at the site until
1838 when the last inhabitants left the
Pueblo and went to the Pueblo of Jemez.
In 1936, an Act of Congress recognized
the Pueblo of Jemez as a
‘‘consolidation’’ and ‘‘merger’’ of the
Pueblo of Pecos and the Pueblo of
Jemez; this Act further recognizes that
all property, rights, titles, interests, and
claims of both Pueblos were
consolidated under the Pueblo of Jemez.
Further evidence supporting a shared
group identity between the Pecos and
Jemez pueblos emerges in numerous
aspects of present-day Jemez life. The
1992–1993 Pecos Ethnographic Project
(unrelated to NAGPRA) states, ‘‘[T]he
cultural evidence of Pecos living
traditions are 1) the official tribal
government position of a Second
Lieutenant/ Pecos Governor; 2) the
possession of the Pecos Pueblo cane of
office; 3) the statue and annual feast day

of Porcingula (Nuestra Senora de los
Angeles) on August 2; 4) the Eagle
Watchers’ Society; 5) the migration of
Pecos people in the early nineteenth
century; and 6) the knowledge of the
Pecos language by a few select elders.’’
(Levine 1994:2–3)
Officials of the Peabody Museum of
Archaeology and Ethnology have
determined that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C.
3001 (9–10), the human remains
described above represent the physical
remains of 10 individuals of Native
American ancestry. Officials of the
Peabody Museum of Archaeology and
Ethnology also 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 the Pueblo of Jemez, New Mexico.
Representatives of any other Indian
tribe that believes itself to be culturally
affiliated with the human remains
should contact Patricia Capone,
Repatriation Coordinator, Peabody
Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology,
Harvard University, 11 Divinity Avenue,
Cambridge, MA 02138, telephone (617)
496–3702, before July 1, 2005.
Repatriation of the human remains to
the Pueblo of Jemez, New Mexico may
proceed after that date if no additional
claimants come forward.
The Peabody Museum of Archaeology
and Ethnology is responsible for
notifying the Fort McDowell Yavapai
Nation, Arizona; Hopi Tribe of Arizona;
Jicarilla Apache Nation, New Mexico;

Notice of Intent to Repatriate a Cultural
Item: Phoebe A. Hearst Museum of

National Park Service, Interior.
Notice.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
Notice is here given in accordance
with the Native American Graves
Protection and Repatriation Act
(NAGPRA), 25 U.S.C. 3005, of the intent
to repatriate a cultural item in the
possession of the Phoebe A. Hearst
Museum of Anthropology at the
University of California, Berkeley,
Berkeley, CA that meets the definition
of ‘‘objects of cultural patrimony’’ under
25 U.S.C. 3001.
This notice is published as part of the
National Park Service’s administrative
responsibilities under NAGPRA, 25
U.S.C. 3003 (d)(3). The determinations
in this notice are the sole responsibility
of the museum, institution, or Federal
agency that has control of the cultural
items. The National Park Service is not
responsible for the determinations in
this notice.
The one cultural item is a Tlingit
Chilkat tunic with a Kaagwaantaan Clan
of Klukwan bear crest. In 1977, the
cultural item was donated to the Phoebe
A. Hearst Museum of Anthropology at
the University of California, Berkeley by
the daughter of the original purchaser,
who had acquired the tunic from the
widow of a Tlingit Kaagwaantaan Clan
leader during the 1930s.
The Phoebe A. Hearst Museum of
Anthropology at the University of
California, Berkeley consulted with
Sealaska Corporation, acting on behalf
of the Kaagwaantaan Clan of Klukwan.
Museum records contain a photograph
circa 1900 showing the Kaagwaantaan
Clan leader wearing the Chilkat tunic
with bear crest. Written records
obtained at the time of the donation
indicate that the Chilkat tunic was worn
at a potlatch given by Chief Shakes in
Wrangel, AK in 1879. Museum records
also indicate that the widow knew that
the tunic should not be sold. Sealaska
Corporation provided further evidence
that the Chilkat tunic with bear crest
was the property of the Kaagwaantaan
Clan, could not have been conveyed by

any individual tribal member, and
should be returned as an object of
cultural patrimony. The Phoebe A.
Hearst Museum of Anthropology at the
University of California, Berkeley agrees
with the evidence and therefore will
repatriate the Chilkat tunic with bear
crest to the Sealaska Corporation, acting
on behalf of the Kaagwaantaan Clan of
Klukwan.
Officials of the Phoebe A. Hearst
Museum of Anthropology at the
University of California, Berkeley have
determined that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C.
3001 (3)(D), the one cultural item
described above has ongoing historical,
traditional, or cultural importance
central to the Native American group or
culture itself, rather than property
owned by an individual. Officials of the
Phoebe A. Hearst Museum of
Anthropology at the University of
California, Berkeley also 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 object of
cultural patrimony and the
Kaagwaantaan Clan of Klukwan,
represented by the Sealaska
Corporation.
Representatives of any other Indian
tribe that believes itself to be culturally
affiliated with the object of cultural
patrimony should contact C. Richard
Hitchcock, NAGPRA Coordinator,
Phoebe A. Hearst Museum of
Anthropology at the University of
California, Berkeley, Berkeley, CA
94720, telephone (510) 642–6096, before
July 1, 2005. Repatriation of the object
of cultural patrimony to the Sealaska
Corporation, acting on behalf of the
Kaagwaantaan Clan of Klukwan, may
proceed after that date if no additional
claimants come forward.
The Phoebe A. Hearst Museum of
Anthropology at the University of
California, Berkeley is responsible for
notifying Chilkat Indian Village
(Klukwan); Klukwan, Inc.; and Sealaska
Corporation that this notice has been
published.
