measures 13’’ x 12’’. The third (AE 3371/
35.271.12) and sixth faces (AE 3632/
35.271.19) are referred to as large. The
fourth face (AE 3619/35.271.16)
measures 14’’ x 9’’. The fifth face (AE
3630/35.271.18) measures 13’’ x 10 1/2’’.
The seventh face (AE 3845/35.271.20)
measures 16’’ x 12’’.
Between May 26 and June 1, 1937, the
museum acquired two braided cornhusk
medicine faces made by William
Gordon, Tonawanda Reservation. The
first (AE 5938/37.523.32) measures 13’’
x 10’’. The second (AE 7401/39.376.8)
measures 8’’ x 7’’.
On September 12, 1935, the museum
acquired one woven cornhusk medicine
face (AE 3631/35.332.50) made by
Robert Tahamont, Tonawanda
Reservation, that measures 13’’ x 12 1/
2’’.
On September 12, 1935, the museum
acquired one braided cornhusk
medicine face (AE 3618/35.307.54)
made by Everett Parker, Tonawanda
Reservation, that measures 13 1/2’’ x
12’’.
On August 1, 1937, the museum
acquired two braided cornhusk
medicine faces made by Julia Black,
Tonawanda Reservation. The first face
(AE 6174/37.493.5) measures 11’’ x 11’’.
The second face (AE 6175/37.493.6)
measures 11’’ x 12’’.
Tonawanda Seneca Nation traditional
religious leaders have identified these
medicine faces as being needed for the
practice of traditional Native American
religions by present-day adherents. In
the course of consultations with
NAGPRA representatives of the
Tonawanda Seneca Nation, it was
shown that individuals who created a
face did not have the authority to sell it
directly to the Rochester Museum &
Science Center. Museum
documentation, supported by oral
evidence presented during consultation
by Tonawanda Seneca Nation NAGPRA
representatives, indicates that these
medicine faces are culturally affiliated
with the Tonawanda Seneca Nation.
Officials of the Rochester Museum &
Science Center have determined, that
pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(C), the
306 cultural items described above are
specific ceremonial objects needed by
traditional Native American religious
leaders for the practice of traditional
Native American religions by their
present-day adherents. Officials of the
Rochester Museum & Science Center
have also determined that, pursuant to
25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(D), the 306 cultural
items described above are objects having
an ongoing historical, traditional, or
cultural importance central to the
Native American group or culture itself,
rather than property owned by an

individual. Lastly, officials of the
Rochester Museum & Science Center
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
objects/objects of cultural patrimony
and the Tonawanda Band of Seneca
Indians of New York.
Representatives of any other Indian
Nation or tribe that believes itself to be
culturally affiliated with the sacred
objects/objects of cultural patrimony
should contact Adele DeRosa, NAGPRA
Coordinator/Collections Manager,
Rochester Museum & Science Center,
657 East Ave., Rochester, NY 14607,
telephone (585) 271–4552, ext 302,
before July 28, 2010. Repatriation of the
sacred objects/objects of cultural
patrimony to the Tonawanda Band of
Seneca Indians of New York may
proceed after that date if no additional
claimants come forward.
The Rochester Museum & Science
Center is responsible for notifying the
Tonawanda Band of Seneca Indians of
New York that this notice has been
published.

An assessment of the human remains
was done by Wisconsin Historical
Society professional staff in
consultation with the Three Affiliated
Tribes of the Fort Berthold Reservation,
North Dakota.
In 1878, human remains representing
a minimum of two individuals were
removed from Fort Berthold, in Berthold
Ward County, ND, by J.A. Rice. The two
skulls were donated to the Wisconsin
Historical Society in 1908. No known
individuals were identified. No
associated funerary objects are present.
The Wisconsin Historical Society
determined that the remains represent
two adult males of Native American
ancestry. The Mandan, Hidatsa, and
Arikara tribes, also known as the Three
Affiliated Tribes of the Fort Berthold
Reservation, North Dakota, have been
living in the Fort Berthold area since
1845. According to historical records,
the original fort was erected as a trading
post and named Fort Atkinson. In 1862,
it was purchased by the American Fur
Company and re-named Fort Berthold.
In 1864, United States troops were
assigned to the fort to protect the trading
post. The post was evacuated in 1867.
In 1868, it became the agency
headquarters for the Arikara, Hidatsa,
and Mandan tribes.

Society, Museum Division, have
determined that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C.
3001(9), the human remains described
above represent the physical remains of
two individuals of Native American

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 human
remains and the Three Affiliated Tribes
of the Fort Berthold Reservation, North
Dakota.

affiliated with the human remains
should contact Jennifer L. Kolb,
