Notice.
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
American Museum of Natural History,
New York, NY. The human remains
were collected from Umatilla County,
OR, and Walla Walla County, WA.
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 the American
Museum of Natural History professional
staff in consultation with
representatives of the Confederated
Tribes of the Umatilla Reservation,
Oregon.
In 1882, human remains representing
a minimum of four individuals were
collected from sand dunes in Umatilla,
Umatilla County, OR. The human
remains were purchased by the
American Museum of Natural History
from Mr. James Terry in 1891. No
known individuals were identified. No
associated funerary objects are present.
The individuals have been identified
as Native American based on their likely
association with a Native American
village, the presence of cranial
reshaping in some of the human
remains, and the collector’s practice of
only collecting cultural items related to
Native Americans from the United

States. Physical anthropologists who
examined the human remains estimate
them to be less than 500 years old.
Consultation information provided by
the tribe, archeological information, and
expert opinion also indicate that the
human remains are likely associated
with the Umatilla site, a Late Prehistoric
to Historic Umatilla village. Geographic
location is consistent with the
traditional and post–contact territory of
the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla
Reservation, Oregon.
In 1882, human remains representing
a minimum of four individuals were
collected from Old Wallula, Walla Walla
County, WA. The human remains were
purchased by the American Museum of
Natural History from Mr. Terry in 1891.
No known individuals were identified.
No associated funerary objects are
present.
The individuals have been identified
as Native American based on the
presence of cranial reshaping in some of
the human remains and the collector’s
practice of only collecting cultural items
related to Native Americans from the
United States. Physical anthropologists
who examined the human remains
estimate them to be less than 500 years
old. Expert opinion also indicates that
the human remains are likely to be of
recent age. Geographic location is
consistent with the traditional and post–
contact territory of the Confederated
Tribes of the Umatilla Reservation,
Oregon.
Officials of the American Museum of
Natural History have determined that,
pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (9–10), the
human remains described above
represent the physical remains of eight
individuals of Native American
ancestry. Officials of the American
Museum of Natural History 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
Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla
Reservation, Oregon.
Representatives of any other Indian
tribe that believes itself to be culturally
affiliated with the human remains
should contact Nell Murphy, Director of
Cultural Resources, American Museum
of Natural History, Central Park West at
79th Street, New York, NY 10024–5192,
telephone (212) 769–5837, before March
9, 2007. Repatriation of the human
remains to the Confederated Tribes of
the Umatilla Reservation, Oregon may
proceed after that date if no additional
claimants come forward.

History is responsible for notifying the

Notice.
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 control of Central
Washington University, Department of
Anthropology and Museum, Ellensburg,
WA. The human remains were removed
from Ferry and Okanogan Counties,
WA.
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 Central
Washington University, Department of
Anthropology and Museum professional
staff in consultation with
representatives of the Confederated
Tribes of the Colville Reservation,
Washington.
In 1958, human remains representing
a minimum of one individual were
removed from a terrace 15 feet from
Kettle River in Ferry County, WA, by
University of Washington Museum staff,
and were accessioned by the Thomas
Burke Memorial Washington State
Museum (Burke Museum), University of
Washington, Seattle, WA (Burke
Accession 1963–70). In 1974, the Burke
Museum legally transferred the human
remains to the Central Washington
University, Department of Anthropology
and Museum. No known individual was
identified. No associated funerary
objects are present.
Based on skeletal morphology and
geographic and accession
documentation, the human remains are

of Native American ancestry. Ferry
County is located within the aboriginal
territory of the Confederated Tribes of
the Colville Reservation, Washington.
Ethnographic sources identify Ferry
County as an area associated with the
Colville Band (Kennedy and Bouchard
1998; Mooney 1896; Ray 1936; Spier
1936; Swanton 1952). The Colville Band
is one of the twelve tribes and bands
that compose the Confederated Tribes of
the Colville Reservation, Washington.
In 1960, human remains representing
a minimum of four individuals were
removed from land adjacent to
Washington State Highway 20, three
miles east of Tonasket in Okanogan
County, WA, by a Washington State
Highway Department crew. The
Washington State Highway Department
gave the human remains to the
Okanogan County Sheriff’s Office. The
Okanogan County Sheriff sent the
human remains to the University of
Washington School of Medicine’s
Anatomy Department for identification.
The Burke Museum accessioned the
human remains in 1965 (Burke
Accession 1965–55). In 1974, the Burke
Museum legally transferred the human
remains to Central Washington
University, Department of Anthropology
and Museum. No known individuals
were identified. No associated funerary
objects are present.
Based on morphological evidence, the
human remains are Native American.
The northern area of Okanogan County
was part of the aboriginal and historic
territory of the Okanogan people.
Geographic affiliation is consistent with
the historically documented territory of
the Confederated Tribes of the Colville
Reservation, Washington. The Okanogan
Band is one of the twelve tribes and
bands that compose the Confederated
Tribes of the Colville Reservation,
Washington.
Officials of Central Washington
University, Department of Anthropology
and Museum have determined that,
pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (9–10), the
human remains described above
represent the physical remains of five
individuals of Native American
ancestry. Officials of the Central
Washington University, Department of
Anthropology and Museum have also
determined that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C.
3001 (2), there is a relationship of
