In 1953, human remains representing
a minimum of three individuals were
removed from an unspecified site, in
San Juan County, UT. The human
remains were discovered by a seasonal
park ranger in a weathering midden 1/
2 mile south of the Square Tower
Group, which consists of five Pueblo II
(A.D. 900–1150) – Pueblo III (A.D.
1150–1300) period complexes. No
known individuals were identified. The
associated funerary object is a crescent
shaped cracked wood object with one
polished end.
In 1975, following unauthorized
disturbance by a pothunter, human
remains representing a minimum of one
individual were removed from an
unspecified site in the Goodman Point
Unit, in Montezuma County, CO, by a
park employee. The human remains
may be associated with Goodman Point
Pueblo, which was likely occupied
during the Pueblo III period (A.D. 1150–
1300). No known individual was
identified. No associated funerary
objects are present.
In 1976, human remains representing
a minimum of one individual were
removed from the ‘‘Wickiup 1’’ site, in
San Juan County, UT, by San Jose State
University. The site dates from the
Basketmaker III (A.D. 450–700) through
the Pueblo III (A.D. 1150–1300) periods.
No known individual was identified. No
associated funerary objects are present.
Hovenweep National Monument has
determined that, due to a lack of
contextual information, there is not
VerDate Nov<24>2008

Jkt 220001
sufficient evidence to support a precise
cultural affiliation determination for the
human remains and associated funerary
object.
Officials of Hovenweep National
Monument have determined that,
pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (9–10), the
human remains described above
represent the physical remains of five
individuals of Native American
ancestry. Officials of Hovenweep
National Monument also have
determined that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C.
3001 (3)(A), the object described above
is 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 Hovenweep National
Monument have determined that,
pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (2), a
relationship of shared group identity
cannot reasonably be traced between the
Native American human remains and
associated funerary object and any
present-day Indian tribe.
The Native American Graves
Protection and Repatriation Review
Committee (Review Committee) is
responsible for recommending specific
actions for disposition of culturally
unidentifiable human remains. In
February 2009, Hovenweep National
Monument requested that the Review
Committee recommend disposition of
the culturally unidentifiable human
remains to the Hopi Tribe of Arizona;
Pueblo of Acoma, New Mexico; Pueblo
of Zia, New Mexico; and Zuni Tribe of
the Zuni Reservation, New Mexico
based on geographic proximity. The
Review Committee considered the
proposal at its May 23–24, 2009,
meeting, and recommended disposition
of the human remains to the Hopi Tribe
of Arizona; Pueblo of Acoma, New
Mexico; Pueblo of Zia, New Mexico; and
Zuni Tribe of the Zuni Reservation, New
Mexico. The National Park Service
intends to convey the associated
funerary object to the tribes pursuant to
16 U.S.C. 18f–2.
A September 16, 2009, letter from the
Designated Federal Officer, writing on
behalf of the Secretary of the Interior,
transmitted the authorization for the
park to effect disposition of the physical
remains of the culturally unidentifiable
individuals to the four Indian tribes
listed above contingent on the
publication of a Notice of Inventory
Completion in the Federal Register.
This notice fulfills that requirement.
Representatives of any other Indian
tribe that believes itself to be culturally
affiliated with the human remains and
associated funerary object should

At an unknown date, human remains
representing a minimum of two
individuals were removed from an
unknown cremation site in the Mason
Valley, San Diego County, CA. In 1966,
the Riverside Metropolitan Museum
purchased the human remains from
Fred Bates of Riverside, CA. No known
individuals were identified. The 88
associated funerary objects are 1 stone
mano, 6 bone awls, 59 shell beads, 1
burnt fiber, 4 metal items, 7 stone
artifacts, 4 shells, 3 stone beads, 2
worked wood artifacts, and 1 pipe
fragment.
It was determined through collections
research and the geographic location
that the human remains and associated
funerary objects are of Kumeyaay/
Diegueno origin. Museum records
indicate ‘‘Indian Cremation Remains.’’
The Mason Valley is now divided into
San Diego and Imperial Counties, as
well as Baja Norte. While the nation of
original inhabitants has been called
Southern Diegueno, Diegueno-Kamia,
Ipai-Tipai and Mission Indians, the
tribes prefer to be called Kumeyaay. The
Kumeyaay are a federation of
autonomous, self-governing bands, that
have clearly defined territories.

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 in the control of the Pierce
College District, Lakewood, WA, and in
the physical custody of the Thomas
Burke Memorial Washington State
Museum (Burke Museum), University of
Washington, Seattle, WA. The human
remains were most likely removed from
Gig Harbor, Pierce County, WA.
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
Park Service is not responsible for the
determinations in this notice.
A detailed assessment of the human
remains was made by Pierce College
professional staff in consultation with
representatives of the Burke Museum
and the Puyallup Tribe of the Puyallup
Reservation, Washington.
During 1973, human remains
representing a minimum of two
individuals were most likely removed
from archeological site 45–PI–13
(Minter II), Gig Harbor, in Pierce
County, WA, by Dale McGinnis. No
known individuals were identified. No
associated funerary objects are present.
The human remains are from an
unspecified excavation and were found
in a box labeled ‘‘Faunal Midden
Remains.’’ Initially, they were
determined to be culturally
unidentifiable, based on lack of
provenience, but additional information
was put forward by the Puyallup Tribe
and other sources, the preponderance of
the evidence now supports a cultural
affiliation for the human remains with
the Puyallup Tribe.

One of the additional sources was
Mike Avey, a former Anthropology
Department Chair at Pierce College Fort
Steilacoom. In 2006, he stated that the
human remains might be from the
Minter Bay excavation by Dale
McGinnis. There is a dual numbering
system present on the remains. It is
believed that these human remains
initially were numbered while on loan
to the University of Oregon, and then
were numbered by Pierce College upon
their return, as this dual numbering
system does not match any of the other
archeological collections held by Pierce
College. Therefore, the Pierce College
District reasonably believes the human
remains were removed from the Minter
site. The home of the Minter people is
an area within the historically and
ethnographically documented territory
of the Puyallup Tribe. This area has long
been occupied by the Shotlemamish, a
Southern Lushootseed speaking group,
whose descendants are members of the
Puyallup Tribe of the Puyallup
Reservation, Washington.
Officials of the Pierce College District
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
Pierce College District 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 the
Puyallup Tribe of the Puyallup
Reservation, Washington.
Representatives of any other Indian
tribe that believes itself to be culturally
affiliated with the human remains
should contact Chris MacKersie, District
Director of Safety & Security and
Assistant Director of Facilities, Pierce
College District, 9401 Farwest Dr. SW,
Lakewood, WA 98498, telephone (253)
912–3655, before April 26, 2010.
Repatriation of the human remains to
the Puyallup Tribe of the Puyallup
Reservation, Washington may proceed
after that date if no additional claimants
come forward.
Pierce College District is responsible
for notifying the Puyallup Tribe of the
Puyallup Reservation, Washington that
this notice has been published.

At an unknown date, human remains representing a minimum of two
individuals were removed from an unknown cremation site in the Mason
Valley, San Diego County, CA. In 1966, the Riverside Metropolitan
Museum purchased the human remains from Fred Bates of Riverside, CA. No
known individuals were identified. The 88 associated funerary objects
are 1 stone mano, 6 bone awls, 59 shell beads, 1 burnt fiber, 4 metal
items, 7 stone artifacts, 4 shells, 3 stone beads, 2 worked wood
artifacts, and 1 pipe fragment.
It was determined through collections research and the geographic
location that the human remains and associated funerary objects are of
Kumeyaay/Diegueno origin. Museum records indicate ``Indian Cremation

of Mission Indians of the Viejas Reservation, California.
Officials of the Riverside Metropolitan Museum have determined
that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (9-10), the human remains described
above represent two individuals of Native American ancestry. Officials
of the Riverside Metropolitan Museum also have determined that,
pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (3)(A), the 88 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 Riverside Metropolitan 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 Barona Group of Capitan Grande Band of Mission Indians
