DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR
National Park Service
Notice of Intent to Repatriate a Cultural
Item: U.S. Department of the Interior,

National Historical Park, Tumacacori,
AZ
National Park Service, Interior.
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 a cultural item in the
possession of the U.S. Department of the
Interior, National Park Service,
Tumacacori National Historical Park,
Tumacacori, AZ, that meets the
PO 00000
Frm 00085
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

definition of ‘‘sacred 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 superintendent, Tumacacori
National Historical Park.
At an unknown date and under
unknown circumstances, a buckskin
object was acquired by Tumacacori
National Historical Park. Originally
identified as a buckskin ‘‘shield’’, the
item was described as ‘‘possibly a
removable cover for a raw hide shield.
Feathers are eagle and red-tail hawk,
attached to the black satin ribbon sewn
to upper third perimeter, hanging
streamer on both sides. Buckskin is
painted in yellow, black, blue, on both
sides. Buckskin around frame sewn w/
buckskin, feathers also sewn with
buckskin. Other sewing w/ heavy
commercial thread.’’
Consultation between Tumacacori
National Historical Park and the
Mescalero Apache Tribe of the
Mescalero Reservation, New Mexico,
indicates that the object is not a shield,
but rather a sacred object that is used in
traditional prayer ceremonies. The
design and style of manufacture indicate
the object is Mescalero Apache in
origin. Such an object would be
manufactured for a specific ceremony,
which usually is held annually.
Typically four such objects were
manufactured at the same time and, as
part of a prayer or blessing ceremony,
placed outside in the four directional
corners of an area that would be a
homeland to a group of Mescalero
Apaches.
Officials of Tumacacori National
Historical Park have determined that,
pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (3)(C), the
cultural item described above is a
specific ceremonial object needed by
traditional Native American religious
leaders for the practice of traditional
Native American religions by their
present-day adherents. Officials of
Tumacacori National Historical Park
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 sacred object and the Mescalero
Apache Tribe of the Mescalero
Reservation, New Mexico.
Representatives of any other Indian
tribe that believes itself to be culturally
affiliated with the sacred object should
contact Lisa Carrico, superintendent,
Tumacacori National Historical Park,
P.O. Box 8067, Tumacacori, AZ 85648,
telephone (520) 398–2341 Ext. 52,
