Osteological characteristics indicate
that these individuals are Native
American. The interments most likely
date to the Middle to Late Woodland
periods (A.D. 0 - 1500). Artifacts
recovered from the grave fill but not
associated with the human remains,
including lithic flakes and ceramic
sherds, support this date. Archeological
evidence, museum documentation, and
oral histories indicate that the human
remains are from an area considered to
be part of the aboriginal homelands and
traditional burial areas of the Delaware
people.
Between 1894 and 1895, human
remains representing a minimum of
seven individuals were recovered from
the Lalor Field site in Trenton, Mercer
County, NJ, by Ernest Volk during a
Peabody Museum of Archaeology and
Ethnology expedition led by Mr. Volk.
No known individuals were identified.
The one associated funerary object is a
stone gorget.
Osteological characteristics indicate
that these individuals are Native
American. The interments most likely
date to the Middle to Late Woodland
periods (A.D. 0 - 1500). The polished
stone gorget associated with the human
remains, as well as artifacts recovered
from the grave fill, supports this date.
Archeological evidence, museum
documentation, and oral histories
indicate that the human remains are
from an area considered to be part of the
aboriginal homelands and traditional
burial areas of the Delaware people.
In 1909, human remains representing
a minimum of one individual were
recovered from the A.K. Rowan Farm
site in Trenton, Mercer County, NJ, by
Ernest Volk and R.E. Merwin during a
Peabody Museum of Archaeology and
Ethnology expedition led by Mr. Volk
and Mr. Merwin. No known individual
was identified. The eight associated
funerary objects are five sets of shell and
glass beads, one copper box containing
vegetable fiber, one lot of woven fabric,
and one lot of hide fragments with metal
oxidation.
Osteological characteristics indicate
that this individual is Native American.
This interment most likely dates to the
Contact or Historic period (post-A.D.
1500) and the associated funerary
objects recovered with the human
remains support this date. In addition,
copper staining present on the human
remains is most likely the result of
shroud pin use and supports a date to
the Contact or Historic period.
Archeological evidence, museum
documentation, and oral histories
indicate that the human remains are
from an area considered to be part of the

aboriginal homelands and traditional
burial areas of the Delaware people.
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 19 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 (3)(A), the 16
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
Peabody Museum of Archaeology and
Ethnology 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 the
Cherokee Nation, Oklahoma, on behalf
of the Delaware Tribe of Indians; and
Delaware Nation, Oklahoma.
Representatives of any other Indian
tribe that believes itself to be culturally
affiliated with the human remains and
associated funerary objects 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 August 29, 2007.
Repatriation of the human remains and
associated funerary objects to the
Cherokee Nation, Oklahoma, on behalf
of the Delaware Tribe of Indians; and
Delaware Nation, Oklahoma may
proceed after that date if no additional
claimants come forward.
The Peabody Museum of Archaeology
and Ethnology is responsible for
notifying the Cherokee Nation,
Oklahoma; Delaware Nation, Oklahoma;
and Stockbridge Munsee Community,
Wisconsin that this notice has been
published.

Notice.
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 and associated funerary objects
in the control of the Thomas Burke
Memorial Washington State Museum
(Burke Museum), University of
Washington, Seattle, WA. The human
remains and the associated funerary
objects were removed from Kitsap
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 and
associated funerary objects. The
National Park Service is not responsible
for the determinations in this notice.
A detailed assessment of the human
remains was made by the Burke
Museum professional staff in
consultation with representatives of the
Port Gamble Indian Community of the
Port Gamble Reservation, Washington
and Suquamish Indian Tribe of the Port
Madison Reservation, Washington.
At an unknown time, human remains
representing a minimum of three
individuals were removed from the Old
Man House area in Kitsap County, WA,
by an unknown person. In 1995, the
human remains were formally
accessioned as ‘‘found in collection’’
(Burke Accn. #1995–64). No known
individuals were identified. The two
associated funerary objects are one bag
of sediment and one piece of wood.
Minimal museum documentation is
associated with the human remains. The
human remains were found in the Burke
Museum’s storage with a note indicating
that they were found ‘‘at/near O Man
House’’ and the name ‘‘A.S. McCrary’’
with a Seattle address. It is unclear what
relationship A.S. McCrary had to the
human remains.
At an unknown time, human remains
representing a minimum of four
individuals are reasonably believed to
have been removed from the Old Man
House area on the Suquamish
Reservation, Kitsap County, WA. The
human remains were formally
accessioned as ‘‘found in collection’’ in
1995 (Burke Accn. #1995–64). No
known individuals were identified. No
associated funerary objects are present.
Minimal museum documentation is
associated with the human remains. The
human remains were found in a box that
contained artifacts from the Old Man

House area, but are not believed to be
associated funerary objects.
Archeological information suggests
that the Old Man House site was used
for over 2000 years. The Lushootseed
name for the Old Man House site is
D’Suq’wub. Members of the Suquamish
tribe speak the Lushootseed language.
The site is also the location of the long
house where ‘‘Chief’’ Sealth, also known
as Chief Seattle, a leader of the
Suquamish, once lived. The earliest
written ethnographic information
describing the longhouse referred to as
Old Man House was by George Gibbs in
1855.
In 1855, the Point Elliot Treaty
allocated the land where Old Man
House was to the Suquamish. The
Suquamish were later removed from
these lands in 1904 and 1905, when the
United States government seized the
land. The area surrounding the Old Man
House area has been subject to many
different forms of ownership including
private property, state property, or
reservation property. Based on the lack
of definitive information of removal, the
Burke Museum has proceeded as the
responsible entity.
At an unknown time, human remains
representing a minimum of one
individual were reasonably believed to
have been removed from Suquamish,
Kitsap County, WA, by an unknown
person. Minimal museum
documentation was associated with the
human remains and they were formally
accessioned as ‘‘found in collection’’ in
1995 (Burke Accn. #1995–64). The 11
associated funerary objects are 2
pebbles, 1 concretion, 2 lots of rodent
feces, 4 stone flakes, 1 nut shell
fragment, and 1 stone fragment.
According to ethnographic
documentation, the Suquamish tribe
aboriginally occupied the area
surrounding the town of Suquamish
(Swanton 1952; Spier 1936). The
Suquamish Reservation was established
in the Point Elliott Treaty, which
allocated the land where the town of
Suquamish is currently located to the
Suquamish tribe. The town of
Suquamish is located less than a mile
from the Old Man House site.
Descendants of the Suquamish are
members of the Suquamish Indian Tribe
of the Port Madison Reservation,
Washington. Based on geographical,
archeological, historic, ethnographic,
and morphological evidence, the human
remains are determined to be Native
American and culturally affiliated with
the Suquamish Indian Tribe of the Port
Madison Reservation, Washington.
Officials of the Burke Museum 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
Burke Museum also have determined
that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (3)(A),
the 13 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 Burke Museum have
determined that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C.

American human remains and

proceed after that date if no additional
claimants come forward.
The Burke Museum is responsible for
