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 Cosumnes River College, Los Rios Community College District, Sacramento, CA. The human remains were removed from Sacramento County, CA. 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 Cosumnes River College professional staff in consultation with representatives of the Ione Band of Miwok Indians of California. In the 1920s, human remains representing a minimum of two individuals were removed from the Gallup Farm in Wilton, Sacramento County, CA, by the daughter of the landowner, Bernice Gallup. In 1974, the human remains were given to David Abrams, professor of Anthropology, Cosumnes River College. The human remains were in Professor Abram’s personal possession until his death in 2004. In September 2006, Professor PO 00000 Frm 00025 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Abram’s widow donated the human remains to Cosumnes River College. No known individuals were identified. No associated funerary objects are present. According to museum records, the Gallup Farm was a known Miwok burial ground and was traditionally and historically the aboriginal land of the Ione Miwok. A forensic analysis of the human remains was conducted in October 2006. Dental wear patterns are consistent with known Miwok remains. Consultation with a representative of the Ione Band of Miwok Indians of California confirmed the identification of the human remains as Miwok. Based on museum records, donor statements, osteological evidence, and geographical information the Cosumnes River College officials reasonably believe that the human remains are Native American dating from before 1920, and are Ione Miwok. Descendants of the Ione Miwok are members of the Ione Band of Miwok Indians of California. Officials of the Cosumnes River College 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 the Cosumnes River College 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 Ione Band of Miwok Indians of California. Representatives of any other Indian tribe that believes itself to be culturally affiliated with the human remains should contact William Karns, VicePresident of Instruction, Cosumnes River College, 8401 Center Parkway, Sacramento, CA 95823, telephone (916) 691–7326, before April 16, 2007. Repatriation of the human remains to the Ione Band of Miwok Indians of California may proceed after that date if no additional claimants come forward.

No known individuals have been identified. The four associated funerary objects are four wood planks. The Wilson Cove Rockshelter site is divided into three sites called Rockshelter 1, 2, and 3. The four wood planks are believed to have been part of a bentwood box associated with the human remains at Rockshelter 3. Radiocarbon dates from charcoal and shell from Rockshelter 1 were 755 B.C. - 200 B.C. and 40 B.C - A.D. 230. A radiocarbon date for Rockshelter 3 was 390 B.C. - A.D. 90. A professional physical anthropologist analyzed the human remains from all three sites and determined they are Native American. Ethnographic information and archeological data indicate that the Wilson Cove Rockshelter site is within the traditional territory of the Angoon Tlingit. Oral traditions of the Angoon Tlingit confirm their affiliation with this site. Descendants of the Angoon Tlingit are members of Kootznoowoo Incorporated. Officials of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service have determined that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (9–10), the human remains described above represent the physical remains of 18 individuals of Native American ancestry. Officials of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service also have determined that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (3)(A), the four objects described above are reasonably believed to have been placed with or near individual human remains at the time of death or later as part of the death rite or ceremony. Lastly, officials of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service 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 objects and Kootznoowoo Incorporated.
