In 1966, human remains representing
a minimum of one individual were
removed from the Naomikong Point Site
(20CH2), Chippewa County, MI, during
excavations by the University of
Michigan. This site is on Federal land,
and excavation occurred under a U.S.
Department of Agriculture, Forest
Service, Special Use Permit. No known
individual was identified. No associated
funerary objects are present.
Based on archeological context, the
human remains are identified as more
likely than not Native American.
Officials of the U.S. Department of
Agriculture, Forest Service, have
determined, pursuant to 25 U.S.C.
3001(2), a relationship of shared group
identity cannot be reasonably traced
between the Native American human
remains and any present-day Indian
Tribe.
These Native American human
remains are from the aboriginal lands of
the Chippewa and Ottawa. According to
the Treaty of Washington, March 28,
1836 (7 stat. 491), there are five presentday Indian Tribes that have aboriginal
land in the area where the remains were
excavated. These five Tribes are the Bay
Mills Indian Community, Michigan;
Grand Traverse Band of Ottawa and
Chippewa Indians, Michigan; Little
River Band of Ottawa Indians,
Michigan; Little Traverse Bay Bands of
Odawa Indians, Michigan; and the Sault
Ste. Marie Tribe of Chippewa Indians of
Michigan. The aboriginal land Tribes
that are in closest proximity to the site
are the Bay Mills Indian Community,
Michigan, and Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of
Chippewa Indians of Michigan. Letters
of support for the disposition of the
Native American human remains to the
Bay Mills Indian Community, Michigan,
and Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Chippewa
Indians of Michigan were sent by the
Bay Mills Indian Community, Michigan;
Grand Traverse Band of Ottawa and
Chippewa Indians, Michigan;
Keweenaw Bay Indian Community,
Michigan; Lac Vieux Desert Band of
Lake Superior Chippewa Indians,
Michigan; Little Traverse Bay Bands of
Odawa Indians, Michigan; Sault Ste.

Agriculture, Forest Service, will transfer
the Native American human remains
from the Naomikong Point Site to the
Bay Mills Indian Community, Michigan,
and Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Chippewa
Indians of Michigan.
Officials of the U.S. Department of
Agriculture, Forest Service, determined,
pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the
human remains described above
represent the physical remains of one
individual of Native American ancestry.
Lastly, officials of the U.S. Department
of Agriculture, Forest Service, have
determined, pursuant to 43 CFR
10.11(c)(1), the disposition of the
human remains is to the Bay Mills
Indian Community, Michigan, and the
Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Chippewa
Indians of Michigan.
Representatives of any Indian Tribe
that believes itself to be culturally
affiliated with the human remains or
any other Indian Tribe that believes it
satisfies the criteria in 43 CFR
10.11(c)(1) should contact Teresa Chase,
Acting Forest Supervisor, Hiawatha
National Forest, 2727 N. Lincoln Road,
