This notice is published as part of the
National Park Service’s administrative

Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe of the
Cheyenne River Reservation and Three
Affiliated Tribes of the Fort Berthold
Reservation, North Dakota.

LeBeau, Walworth County, SD, by Dr.
W.H. Over, curator of the museum of
South Dakota State University at
Vermillion, SD. Subsequently, South
Dakota State University transferred the
human remains and associated funerary
objects to a private collector, Jens
Knudsen, a biology professor at the
Pacific Lutheran University. Mrs.
Knudsen, the widow of Mr. Knudsen,
transferred the human remains and
associated funerary objects to Pacific

University indicates that the human
remains and associated funerary objects
were recovered from a site occupied by
the ‘‘Ree’’ or Arikara Indians. The
descendants of the Arikara are members
of the Three Affiliated Tribes of the Fort
Berthold Reservation, North Dakota.
Officials of Pacific Lutheran
University have determined that,
pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (9–10), the
human remains described above
represent the physical remains of two
individuals of Native American
ancestry. Officials of Pacific Lutheran
University also have determined that,
pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (3)(A), the 56
