The Indian School Village dates to the
Extended Coalescent (A.D. 1500–A.D.
1675) and Post-Contact Coalescent (A.D.
1675–A.D. 1750) Periods. Evaluation of
documentation from the excavation of
the Indian School Village site indicates
that the cultural items were found in
association with Native American
human remains. Other human remains
from the Indian School Village have
been identified as Native American
based on physical anthropological
assessment, manner and location of
burial, and types of funerary objects.
Based on historical documents, oral
history, and archeological data, the
Mandan, Hidatsa, and Arikara peoples
occupied what is now present-day
South Dakota and North Dakota, and are
represented today by the Three
Affiliated Tribes of the Fort Berthold
Reservation, North Dakota.
In June 2008, the Mandan, Hidatsa,
and Arikara Nation of the Three
Affiliated Tribes of the Fort Berthold
Reservation, North Dakota submitted a
request to the Bureau of Indian Affairs,
Great Plains Regional Office for
repatriation of cultural items from
central South Dakota, including the
three unassociated funerary objects
described above from the Indian School
Village.
Officials of the Bureau of Indian
Affairs have determined that, pursuant
to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (3)(B), the three
cultural items 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 and are
believed, by a preponderance of the
evidence, to have been removed from a
specific burial site of a Native American
individual. Officials of the Bureau of
Indian Affairs have determined that,
pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (2), a
relationship of shared group identity
can be traced between the unassociated
funerary objects and the Three Affiliated
Tribes of the Fort Berthold Reservation,
North Dakota.
Representatives of any Indian tribe
that believes itself to be culturally
affiliated with the unassociated funerary
objects should contact Paul Hofmann,
Chief, Division of Environment, Safety
and Cultural Resources, Bureau of
Indian Affairs, 115 4th Ave., Aberdeen,
SD 57401, telephone (605) 226–7656,
before April 13, 2009. Repatriation of
the unassociated funerary objects to the
Three Affiliated Tribes of the Fort
Berthold Reservation, North Dakota may
proceed after that date if no additional
claimants come forward.
The Bureau of Indian Affairs, Great
Plains Regional Office is responsible for
notifying the Three Affiliated Tribes of

Notice.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
Notice is here given in accordance
with the Native American Graves
Protection and Repatriation Act
(NAGPRA), 25 U.S.C. 3005, of the intent
to repatriate cultural items in the
control of the U.S. Department of
Agriculture, Forest Service, Coronado
National Forest, Tucson, AZ, and in the
possession of the Arizona State
Museum, University of Arizona,
Tucson, AZ, that meets the definition of
‘‘unassociated funerary objects’’ under
25 U.S.C. 3001.
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 cultural
items. The National Park Service is not
responsible for the determinations in
this notice.
Between 1979 and 1980, two cultural
items were removed from a prehistoric
site (EE:2:79) within the ANAMAXRosemont Project in the Santa Rita
Mountains, Coronado National Forest,
Pima County, AZ, during legally
authorized excavations by the Arizona
State Museum, University of Arizona.
The two unassociated funerary objects
are a ceramic bowl and charcoal.
Between 1979 and 1980, one cultural
item was removed from a prehistoric
site (EE:2:113) within the ANAMAXRosemont Project in the Santa Rita
Mountains, Coronado National Forest,
Pima County, AZ, during legally
authorized excavations by the Arizona
State Museum, University of Arizona.
The one unassociated funerary object is
a stone palette.
The three cultural items have
remained in the possession of the

Arizona State Museum since their
excavation. Based on architecture,
material culture and site organization,
the two sites (EE:2:79 and EE:2:113)
within the ANAMAX-Rosemont Project
have been identified as Pre-Classic
Hohokam village occupations dating
between A.D. 450 and 1150.
Continuities of ethnographic materials,
technology and architecture indicate the
affiliation of Hohokam sites in the area
of the Anamax-Rosemont Project with
present-day O’odham cultures. The oral
traditions of the Ak-Chin Indian
Community of the Maricopa (Ak Chin)
Indian Reservation, Arizona; Gila River
Indian Community of the Gila River
Indian Reservation, Arizona; Salt River
Pima-Maricopa Indian Community of
the Salt River Reservation, Arizona; and
Tohono O’odham Nation, Arizona,
support the cultural affiliation of these
four Indian tribes with Hohokam sites in
this area of southeastern Arizona. The
oral traditions of the Hopi Tribe of
Arizona and Zuni Tribe of the Zuni
Reservation, New Mexico indicate some
cultural ties or relationships to certain
portions of southeastern Arizona in the
late Post-Classic Period (A.D. 1300–
1450). While the Hopi Tribe and Zuni
Tribe have cultural ties to certain
portions of southeastern Arizona in the
late Pre-Classic Period, the Ak-Chin
Indian Community of the Maricopa (Ak
Chin) Indian Reservation, Arizona; Gila
River Indian Community of the Gila
River Indian Reservation, Arizona; Salt
River Pima-Maricopa Indian
Community of the Salt River
Reservation, Arizona; and Tohono
O’odham Nation, Arizona, have a closer
cultural relationship and affiliation with
these Pre-Classic Period sites within the
ANAMAX-Rosemont Project.
Officials of the U.S. Department of
Agriculture, Forest Service, Coronado
National Forest have determined that,
pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (3)(B), the
three cultural items 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 and are

This notice corrects the number of
unassociated funerary objects reported
in a Notice of Intent to Repatriate
published in the Federal Register (73
FR 50989 – 50990, August 29, 2008).
After the notice was published it was
discovered that several unassociated
funerary objects were counted twice.
In the Federal Register (73 FR 50989
– 50990, August 29, 2008), paragraph
numbers 4–5 are corrected by
substituting the following paragraphs:
Four objects were recovered in 1970
from the same stratum in which a burial
was found. The human remains were
transferred to the University of Idaho
before being repatriated to the Lummi
Tribe of the Lummi Reservation,
Washington on June 26, 1991. The four
funerary objects were transferred to the
Burke Museum and accessioned by the
National Park Service. The four
unassociated funerary objects are one
portion of a non-human mammalian
limb bone, one basalt shatter fragment,
one triangular basalt point fragment,
and one ground abrader fragment.
The 1972 excavation recovered 28
objects that were associated with three
burials. The human remains were
transferred to the University of Idaho
and subsequently repatriated to the
Lummi Tribe of the Lummi Reservation,
Washington on June 26, 1991. The
funerary objects were transferred to the
Burke Museum and accessioned by the
National Park Service. The 28
unassociated funerary objects are 2 fish
vertebrae, 1 antler tine fragment, 1 fused
bird wing bone, 23 fragments of
nonhuman bone, and 1 piece of fire
modified rock.
Paragraph number 9 is corrected by
substituting the following paragraph:
Officials of San Juan Island National

Notice of Intent to Repatriate Cultural Items: U.S. Department of
Agriculture, Forest Service, Coronado National Forest, Tucson, AZ and
Arizona State Museum, University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ
AGENCY: National Park Service, Interior.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Notice is here given in accordance with the Native American Graves
Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), 25 U.S.C. 3005, of the intent
to repatriate cultural items in the control of the U.S. Department of
Agriculture, Forest Service, Coronado National Forest, Tucson, AZ, and
in the possession of the Arizona State Museum, University of Arizona,
Tucson, AZ, that meets the definition of ``unassociated funerary
objects'' under 25 U.S.C. 3001.
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 cultural
items. The National Park Service is not responsible for the
determinations in this notice.
Between 1979 and 1980, two cultural items were removed from a
prehistoric site (EE:2:79) within the ANAMAX-Rosemont Project in the
Santa Rita Mountains, Coronado National Forest, Pima County, AZ, during
legally authorized excavations by the Arizona State Museum, University
of Arizona. The two unassociated funerary objects are a ceramic bowl
and charcoal.
Between 1979 and 1980, one cultural item was removed from a
prehistoric site (EE:2:113) within the ANAMAX-Rosemont Project in the
Santa Rita Mountains, Coronado National Forest, Pima County, AZ, during
legally authorized excavations by the Arizona State Museum, University
of Arizona. The one unassociated funerary object is a stone palette.
The three cultural items have remained in the possession of the
Arizona State Museum since their excavation. Based on architecture,
material culture and site organization, the two sites (EE:2:79 and
EE:2:113) within the ANAMAX-Rosemont Project have been identified as
Pre-Classic Hohokam village occupations dating between A.D. 450 and
1150. Continuities of ethnographic materials, technology and
architecture indicate the affiliation of Hohokam sites in the area of
the Anamax-Rosemont Project with present-day O'odham cultures. The oral
traditions of the Ak-Chin Indian Community of the Maricopa (Ak Chin)
Indian Reservation, Arizona; Gila River Indian Community of the Gila
River Indian Reservation, Arizona; Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian
Community of the Salt River Reservation, Arizona; and Tohono O'odham
Nation, Arizona, support the cultural affiliation of these four Indian
tribes with Hohokam sites in this area of southeastern Arizona. The
oral traditions of the Hopi Tribe of Arizona and Zuni Tribe of the Zuni
Reservation, New Mexico indicate some cultural ties or relationships to
certain portions of southeastern Arizona in the late Post-Classic
Period (A.D. 1300-1450). While the Hopi Tribe and Zuni Tribe have
cultural ties to certain portions of southeastern Arizona in the late
Pre-Classic Period, the Ak-Chin Indian Community of the Maricopa (Ak
Chin) Indian Reservation, Arizona; Gila River Indian Community of the
Gila River Indian Reservation, Arizona; Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian
Community of the Salt River Reservation, Arizona; and Tohono O'odham
Nation, Arizona, have a closer cultural relationship and affiliation
with these Pre-Classic Period sites within the ANAMAX-Rosemont Project.
Officials of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service,
Coronado National Forest have determined that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C.
3001 (3)(B), the three cultural items 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 and
are believed, by a preponderance of the evidence, to have been removed
from a specific burial site of a Native American individual. Officials
of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Coronado
National Forest 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 unassociated funerary objects and the Ak-
Chin Indian Community of the Maricopa (Ak Chin) Indian Reservation,
Arizona; Gila River Indian Community
[[Page 10774]]
of the Gila River Indian Reservation, Arizona; Hopi Tribe of Arizona;
Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community of the Salt River
Reservation, Arizona; Tohono O'odham Nation, Arizona; and Zuni Tribe of
the Zuni Reservation, New Mexico.
Representatives of any other Indian tribe that believes itself to
be culturally affiliated with the unassociated funerary objects should
contact Dr. Frank E. Wozniak, NAGPRA Coordinator, Southwestern Region,
USDA Forest Service, 333 Broadway Blvd., SE, Albuquerque, NM 87102,
