Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 10 / Tuesday, January 15, 2008 / Notices
Puget Sound’s Fort Steilacoom and
eastern Washington where a wagon road
was built in 1853 which originated at
Fort Steilacoom and moved east across
Connell’s Prairie to Naches Pass.
Archeological evidence suggests the
prairie was used by both western and
eastern Washington Native American
groups who traveled along the trails and
roads through the prairie between Puget
Sound and eastern Washington. In
addition, there is a recorded
ethnographic village to the south of
Connell’s Prairie, which is associated
with both the Muckleshoot and
Puyallup Tribes. The Indian Claims
Commission determined Connell’s
Prairie to be outside the exclusive
treaty–time territory of any Native
American tribe. Connell’s Prairie was
also the site of several events during the
1855–1856 Treaty Wars between various
Native American groups and the U.S.
Government. Native American
participants in these wars include
members of the present–day
Muckleshoot Indian Tribe of the
Muckleshoot Reservation, Washington;
Nisqually Indian Tribe of the Nisqually
Reservation, Washington; and Puyallup
Tribe of the Puyallup Reservation,
Washington. Based on physical
anthropological evidence, historic
documentation, and associated funerary
objects, the human remains are
reasonably believed to be Native
American and have a shared group
relationship with the Muckleshoot
Indian Tribe of the Muckleshoot
Reservation, Washington; Nisqually
Indian Tribe of the Nisqually
Reservation, Washington; and/or
Puyallup Tribe of the Puyallup
Reservation, Washington.
Officials of the Slater Museum 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
Slater Museum also have determined
that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (3)(A),
the two 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 Slater Museum 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
Muckleshoot Indian Tribe of the
Muckleshoot Reservation, Washington;
Nisqually Indian Tribe of the Nisqually
Reservation, Washington; and Puyallup

Representatives of any other Indian
tribe that believes itself to be culturally
affiliated with the human remains and
associated funerary objects should
contact Peter Wimberger, Director,

University of Puget Sound, 1500 N.
Warner, Tacoma, WA 98416, telephone

to the Muckleshoot Indian Tribe of the
Muckleshoot Reservation, Washington;
Nisqually Indian Tribe of the Nisqually
Reservation, Washington; and Puyallup
Tribe of the Puyallup Reservation,
Washington may proceed after that date
if no additional claimants come
forward.
The Slater Museum is responsible for

of Puget Sound, Tacoma, WA. The
human remains were removed from
Dash Point, Pierce County, WA.
This notice is published as part of the
National Park Service’s administrative

A detailed assessment of the human
remains was made by Slater Museum of
Natural History, University of Puget
Sound professional staff and consultants
in consultation with representatives of
the Muckleshoot Indian Tribe of the
Muckleshoot Reservation, Washington;
Nisqually Indian Tribe of the Nisqually
Reservation, Washington; and Puyallup
Tribe of the Puyallup Reservation,
Washington.
At an unknown date, human remains
representing a minimum of two
individuals were removed from the
vicinity of Dash Point, Pierce County,
WA, by Dr. T.H. Long. In October 1936,
the human remains were given to the
museum by Ms. Betty Long. No known
individuals were identified. No
associated funerary objects are present.
The individuals are most likely of
Native American ancestry as indicated
by morphological features. The
geographical location where the human
remains were recovered is consistent
with numerous historical and
ethnographic reports documenting the
territory of the Puyallup Tribe of the
Puyallup Reservation, Washington.
Dash Point is located within the revised
boundaries of the Puyallup Indian
Reservation (1857), which is bordered to
the north by the boundary between King
and Pierce Counties. The Indian Claims
Commission determined Dash Point to
be within the exclusive territory of the
Puyallup Tribe at the time of treaty
signing (17 Ind. Cl. Comm. 1, April 25,
1966). In addition, based on information
provided during consultation with tribal
representatives, there is a reasonable
belief that the human remains share a
common ancestry with members of the
tribes now represented by the Puyallup
Tribe of the Puyallup Reservation,
Washington.
Officials of the Slater Museum of
Natural History, University of Puget
Sound 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 Slater Museum of Natural History,
University of Puget Sound also have
determined that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C.
