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 the

of the Wisconsin Historical Society, (aka

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.
In 1928, human remains and funerary
objects were removed from at least two
mounds located within the boundaries
of the Menominee Indian Tribe
Reservation, Menominee County
(formerly Shawano County), WI, by
Arthur P. Kannenberg and John V.
Satterlee. The exact location of these
mounds is not known. In 1950, the
Wisconsin Historical Society, Museum
Division, obtained the human remains,
associated funerary objects, and
unassociated funerary objects from the
wife of Arthur P. Kannenberg. The
human remains and associated funerary
objects are described in a companion
Notice of Inventory Completion. The 91
unassociated funerary objects are 89
earrings and earring fragments, and 2
silver brooches.
The Menominee Indian Reservation
falls within the ancestral and historic
territory of the Menominee people.
Archeological investigation has
uncovered additional historic burials in
this area. Additionally, archeological
research shows that earrings and
brooches, similar to the ones mentioned
above, are commonly found within
historic Indian burials throughout the
Great Lakes region. Furthermore,
Menominee oral history states that the
origin of the Menominee people began
at the mouth of the Menominee River,
which is approximately 60 miles from
the present-day Menominee
Reservation.
Officials of the Bureau of Indian
Affairs and Wisconsin Historical
Society, Museum Division, have
determined that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C.
3001(3)(B), the 91 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
and Wisconsin Historical Society,
Museum Division, 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 Menominee Indian Tribe
of Wisconsin.
Representatives of any other Indian
tribe that believes itself to be culturally
affiliated with the unassociated funerary
objects should contact Jennifer L. Kolb,

notifying the Menominee Indian Tribe

Wisconsin Historical Society (aka State

Pueblo of Zuni, Catron County, NM.
This notice is published as part of the

A detailed assessment of the human

Historical Society professional staff in
consultation with the Zuni Tribe of the
Zuni Reservation, New Mexico.
Sometime prior to 1892, human
remains representing a minimum of one
individual were excavated from a depth
of several feet below the surface of the
present-day Pueblo of Zuni, Catron
County, NM, by the Hemenway
expedition. The Hemenway Expedition
1886–1896, was directed by Frank
