completion of an inventory of human
remains in the possession of the Pierce
College District, Lakewood, WA. The
human remains were removed from site
45–PI–07, also known as the Purdy 1
site, at Carr Inlet, Pierce 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.
This notice corrects the number of
tribes that were determined to be
culturally affiliated in a Notice of
Inventory Completion previously
published in the Federal Register of
November 22, 2006 (FR Doc E6–19790,
pages 67634–67635) by adding the
Nisqually Indian Tribe of the Nisqually
Reservation, Washington.
After publication in the Federal
Register of the Notice of Inventory
Completion, Pierce College District
determined that the Nisqually Indian
Tribe of the Nisqually Reservation,
Washington were also culturally
affiliated with the Native American
human remains from site 45–PI–07, also
known as the Purdy 1 site, at Carr Inlet,
Pierce County, WA.
In the Federal Register of November
22, 2006, on page 67634, paragraph
number 5, is corrected by substituting
the following:
Site 45–PI–07 is a shell mound
measuring 5 feet high, 30 feet wide, and
120 feet long. Osteological and
archeological analysis indicate that the
human remains removed from site 45–
PI–07 are of Native American ancestry,
based on the presence of extreme
degrees of dental wear, marked
shoveling of the exposed permanent
incisors, blunt nasal sills, rounded
chins, squatting facets on the talus, and
their flex-kneed burial position, and site
context. Archeological materials
recovered from the site indicate a wide
range of use during the prehistoric and
historic periods. Site 45–PI–07 is
located within the area long occupied
by the Shotlemamish, a Southern
Lushootseed speaking group. Members
of the Puyallup Tribe of the Puyallup
Reservation, Washington speak the
Southern Lushootseed language.
Around 1870s, remaining
Shotlemamish, in what is now the
Purdy I area, moved to the Puyallup
Reservation where there were already
Shotlemamish living on the reservation.
Officials of Pierce College have
reasonably determined that there is also
a shared group identity through
PO 00000

marriage between the Burley Lagoon,
Purdy Washington Shotlemamish and
Nisqually Indian Tribe of the Nisqually
Reservation, Washington. Descendants
of the Shotlemamish are members of the
Puyallup Tribe of the Puyallup
Reservation, Washington.
Officials of the Pierce College District
have determined that, pursuant to 25
U.S.C. 3001 (9–10), the human remains
described above represent the physical
remains of 29 individuals of Native
American ancestry. Officials of the
Pierce College District 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
Nisqually Indian Tribe of the Nisqually
Reservation, Washington and Puyallup
Tribe of the Puyallup Reservation,
Washington. Lastly, officials of the
Pierce College District have determined
that there is a preponderance of the
evidence in favor of the Puyallup Tribe
of the Puyallup Reservation,
Washington’s claim.
Representatives of any other Indian
tribe that believes itself to be culturally
affiliated with the human remains
should contact Chris MacKersie, District
Director of Safety & Security and
Assistant Director of Facilities, Pierce
College District, 9401 Farwest Drive SW,
Lakewood, WA 98498, telephone (253)
912–3655, before August 1, 2007.
Repatriation of the human remains to
the Puyallup Tribe of the Puyallup
Reservation, Washington may proceed
after that date if no additional claimants
come forward.
Pierce College District is responsible
for notifying the Nisqually Indian Tribe
of the Nisqually Reservation,
Washington and Puyallup Tribe of the
Puyallup Reservation, Washington that
this notice has been published.
