Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 185 / Friday, September 24, 2010 / Notices
pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(B), the 32
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 American
Museum of Natural History have
determined that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C.
3001(2), there is a shared group identity
that can be traced between the
unassociated funerary objects and the
Ak Chin Indian Community of the
Maricopa (Ak Chin) Indian Reservation,
Arizona; Gila River Indian Community
of the Gila River Indian Reservation,
Arizona; and Salt River Pima-Maricopa
Indian Community of the Salt River
Reservation, Arizona.
Representatives of any other Indian
tribe that believes itself to be culturally
affiliated with the unassociated funerary
objects should contact Nell Murphy,
Director of Cultural Resources,
American Museum of Natural History,
Central Park West at 79th St., New York,
NY 10024, telephone (212) 769–5837,
before October 25, 2010. Repatriation of
the unassociated funerary objects to the
Ak Chin Indian Community of the
Maricopa (Ak Chin) Indian Reservation,
Arizona; Gila River Indian Community
of the Gila River Indian Reservation,
Arizona; and Salt River Pima-Maricopa
Indian Community of the Salt River
Reservation, Arizona, may proceed after
that date if no additional claimants
come forward.
The American Museum of Natural
History is responsible for notifying the
Ak Chin Indian Community of the
Maricopa (Ak Chin) Indian Reservation,
Arizona; Gila River Indian Community
of the Gila River Indian Reservation,
Arizona; and Salt River Pima-Maricopa
Indian Community of the Salt River
Reservation, Arizona, that this notice
has been published.

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
possession of the Thomas Gilcrease
Institute of American History and Art
(Gilcrease Museum), Tulsa, OK, that
meet the definition of objects of cultural
patrimony 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.
The nine cultural items are Waxo’be
bundles belonging to the Osage people.
The bundles were part of the Emil
Lenders Collection that was brought to
the Gilcrease Museum during the early
half of the 20th Century. The bundles
were part of a sizeable collection of
Native American artifacts acquired by
the Gilcrease Museum for the
preservation of North American history.
The first bundle is made of buckskin
with a scalp lock and twisted wool that
are seen from the open end (84.1749).
The second bundle has a long buckskin
strap for an Osage War bundle that has
an eagle foot and human scalp attached
(84.1750 a-h). The third bundle is made
with a wrapped buckskin strap that ties
a woven buffalo hair bag with eagle foot
and human scalp attached (84.1751 a-i).
The fourth bundle is made of buckskin
and laced at the ends with buckskin
thongs, buckskin tying strap, and a
woven inner bag (84.1753 a-b). The fifth
bundle is made of buckskin and
contains a partially woven inner bag
and woven buffalo hair bag and tied
with two leather thongs (84.1754). The
sixth bundle has an outer strip and an
outer bag, as well as two inner bags, and
a buckskin strap for tying prisoners
(84.1757 a-i). The seventh bundle has an
outer bag of woven buffalo hair with an
inner bag made of buckskin with a
woven mat inside (84.1759). The outer
strap has animal hair and human scalp
locks on buckskin with a rawhide ring
tied on the bundle with calico. The
eighth bundle has an outer covering of
woven matting with borders of natural,
black and red eagle quills (84.1761). The
ninth bundle has an outer bag of woven
buffalo hair with an inner bag of
buckskin and woven mat inside. The
outer strap is animal hair and human
scalp locks on buckskin (84.1762).
Waxo’be bundles and their
components have on-going historical
and cultural importance to the Osage

people. They are also owned by the
Osage people and not by any single
individual. In the past, bundles and
their components were the central
symbolic elements of ceremonies related
to Osage cosmology, the traditional
religion practiced before adoption of the
Native American Church by the Osage.
While these specific ceremonies related
to Osage cosmology are no longer
practiced today, bundles and their
components continue to hold immense
spiritual significance and sacred power
for the Osage people requiring
protection of these objects and
extremely limited exposure.
Officials of the Gilcrease Museum
have determined that, pursuant to 25
U.S.C. 3001(3)(D), the nine cultural
items described above have ongoing
historical, traditional, or cultural
importance central to the Native
American group or culture itself, rather
than property owned by an individual.
Officials of the Gilcrease Museum 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 objects of
cultural patrimony and the Osage
Nation, Oklahoma.
Representatives of any other Indian
tribe that believes itself to be culturally
affiliated with the objects of cultural
patrimony should contact Dr. Duane H.
King, Executive Director, or Eric
Singleton, Assistant Curator of
Anthropology, Gilcrease Museum, 1400
N. Gilcrease Museum Rd., Tulsa, OK
74127, telephone (918) 596–2793 before
October 25, 2010. Repatriation of the
objects of cultural patrimony to the
Osage Nation, Oklahoma, will proceed
after that date if no additional claimants
come forward.
The Gilcrease Museum is responsible
for notifying the Osage Nation,
Oklahoma, that this notice has been
published.

curtail the damage being caused to
them. The bones were reported to Dr.
Buckmaster after they were exposed by
erosion resulting from off-road vehicle
use that resulted in the bones being
visible on the surface. After removal, Dr.
