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 and associated funerary objects
in the possession of the Peabody
Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology,
Harvard University, Cambridge, MA.
The human remains and associated
funerary objects were removed from
Marquette County, MI.
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.
This notice corrects the number of
associated funerary objects described in
a Notice of Inventory Completion
published in the Federal Register on
March 20, 2001 (FR Doc. 01–6895, pages
15752–15753). In July 2008, the
Peabody Museum of Archaeology and
Ethnology identified six additional
associated funerary objects.
In the Federal Register of March 20,
2001, paragraph number 4 is corrected
by substituting the following paragraph:
In 1887, human remains representing
two individuals were donated to the
Peabody Museum of Archaeology and
Ethnology by A. Kidder. No known
individuals were identified. The 18
associated funerary objects are 1 brass
kettle, 1 wooden dish, 9 bone beads, 1
copper ornament with hair, 2 brass
buckles, 1 iron tomahawk, 1 wooden
handle, 1 lot of iron knife fragments,
and 1 lot of iron scissor fragments.
In the Federal Register of March 20,
2001, paragraph number 6 is corrected
by substituting the following
paragraphs:
Officials of the Peabody Museum of

remains of two 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 18
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
Keweenaw Bay Indian Community,
Michigan.
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 or
Archaeology and Ethnology, Harvard
University, 11 Divinity Ave.,
Cambridge, MA 02138, telephone (617)
496–3702, before September 12, 2008.

associated funerary object to the
