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 in the control of the Alaska
State Office of History and Archaeology,
Anchorage, AK and in the possession of
the Alutiiq Museum and Archaeological
Repository, Kodiak, AK. The human
remains were removed from Pasagshak
Point site (49–KOD–00213), Kodiak
Island, AK.
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

A detailed assessment of the human
remains was made on behalf of the
Alaska State Office of History and
Archaeology by Alutiiq Museum and
Archaeological Repository professional
staff in consultation with
representatives of Natives of Kodiak,
Inc.; Koniag, Inc.; Leisnoi, Inc.; Lesnoi
Village (aka Woody Island); and Sun’aq
Tribe of Kodiak (formerly the Shoonaq’
Tribe of Kodiak).
In September 1992, human remains
representing a minimum of one
individual were removed from the
Pasagshak Point site (49–KOD–00213),
Kodiak Island, AK, by Dr. Richard
Knecht. Dr. Knecht took the human
remains to the Kodiak Area Native
Association’s Alutiiq Culture Center. In
1995, the human remains were
transferred to the Alutiiq Museum and
Archaeological Repository where they
are currently stored (number AM63). No
known individual was identified. No
associated funerary objects are present.
The Pasagshak Point archeological
site is on State of Alaska land. The
Pashagshak Point site is a prehistoric
settlement at the mouth of Ugak Bay on
the southeastern coast of the Kodiak
archipelago. The site has deep, wellpreserved midden that dates to the
Koniag Tradition, the cultural phase
that directly preceded European contact.
As such, the human remains from the
site are presumed to be Native American
and most closely related to the
contemporary Kodiak Alutiiq people.
Specifically, the human remains are
from an area of the Kodiak archipelago
traditionally used by members of the
Lesnoi Village (aka Woody Island) and
Sun’aq Tribe of Kodiak.
Officials of the Alaska State Office of
History and Archaeology and Alutiiq
Museum and Archaeological Repository
have determined that, pursuant to 25
U.S.C. 3001 (9–10), the human remains
described above represent the physical
remains of one individual of Native
American ancestry. Officials of the
Alaska State Office of History and
Archaeology and the Alutiiq Museum
and Archaeological Repository 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 Natives
of Kodiak, Inc.; Koniag, Inc.; Leisnoi,
Inc.; Lesnoi Village (aka Woody Island);
and Sun’aq Tribe of Kodiak.
Representatives of any other Indian
tribe that believes itself to be culturally
affiliated with the human remains
should contact Dr. Sven Haakanson, Jr.,
Executive Director, Alutiiq Museum and
Archaeological Repository, 215 Mission
Rd., Suite 101, Kodiak, AK 99615,

telephone (907) 486–7004, before
September 24, 2007. Repatriation of the
human remains to the Natives of
Kodiak, Inc.; Koniag, Inc.; Leisnoi, Inc.;
Lesnoi Village (aka Woody Island); and
Sun’aq Tribe of Kodiak may proceed
after that date if no additional claimants
come forward.
The Alutiiq Museum and
Archaeological Repository is
responsible for notifying Natives of
Kodiak, Inc.; Koniag, Inc.; Leisnoi, Inc.;
Lesnoi Village (aka Woody Island); and
Sun’aq Tribe of Kodiak that this notice
has been published.

In 1990, human remains representing
a minimum of one individual were
removed from an unknown site
(probably 49–KOD–00303) near Chiniak,
AK, by a collector and turned over to
the Alaska State Troopers. The Alaska
State Troopers sent the human remains
to Anchorage for examination by a
professional archeologist at the State
Office of History and Archaeology and
determined to be prehistoric. The
human remains were returned to the
Alaska State Troopers, who deposited
them in the care of the Kodiak Area
Native Association’s Alutiiq Culture
Center in 1991. In 1995, the human
remains were transferred to the Alutiiq
Museum and Archaeological Repository
where they are currently stored
(accession number AM92). No known
individual was identified. No associated
funerary objects are present.
The likely origin of the human
remains is 49–KOD–00303, a prehistoric
archeological site on the south shore of
Chiniak Bay in Alaska’s Kodiak
archipelago. Site 49–KOD–00303
contains extensive, well-preserved
midden deposits, covering more than an
acre. Physical anthropological findings
and the likely origins of the human
remains suggest that they represent a
prehistoric Kodiak Alutiiq person. Many
Kodiak archeologists believe that the
region’s cultural sequence represents a
7,500 year period of evolutionary
growth with the earliest colonizers
evolving into the Alutiiq societies
recorded at historic contact. As such,
the human remains are reasonably
believed to be Native American and
most closely affiliated with the
contemporary Native residents of the
Kodiak archipelago, the Kodiak Alutiiq.
Specifically, the human remains were
recovered from an area traditionally
used by members of the Koniag, Inc.;
Leisnoi, Inc.; Lesnoi Village (aka Woody
Island); Natives of Kodiak, Inc.; and
Sun’aq Tribe of Kodiak.
