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 and
associated funerary objects. The
National Park Service is not responsible
for the determinations in this notice.
A detailed assessment of the human
remains was made by the Logan
Museum of Anthropology, Beloit
College, professional staff in
consultation with representatives of the
Bad River Band of the Lake Superior
Tribe of Chippewa Indians of the Bad
River Reservation, Wisconsin; Forest
County Potawatomi Community,
Wisconsin; Ho-Chunk Nation of
Wisconsin; Lac Courte Oreilles Band of
Lake Superior Chippewa Indians of
Wisconsin; Lac du Flambeau Band of
Lake Superior Chippewa Indians of the
Lac du Flambeau Reservation of
Wisconsin; Menominee Indian Tribe of
Wisconsin; Oneida Tribe of Indians of
Wisconsin; Red Cliff Band of Lake
Superior Chippewa Indians of
Wisconsin; St. Croix Chippewa Indians
of Wisconsin; Sokaogon Chippewa
Community, Wisconsin; and
Stockbridge Munsee Community,
Wisconsin.
In 1975, human remains representing
a minimum of one individual (‘‘Burial
2’’) were removed from the Marina site
(47As24), La Pointe Township,
Madeline Island, Ashland County, WI,
by crews from Beloit College. The
excavation was directed by Robert J.
Salzer under the terms of an agreement
between Beloit College and the
Interagency Archeological Services
branch of the National Park Service. No
known individual was identified. No
associated funerary objects are present.
In 1977, human remains representing
a minimum of one individual (‘‘Burial
12’’) were removed from the Marina site
(47As24), La Pointe Township,
Madeline Island, Ashland County, WI,
by workers installing a sewer line. No
known individual was identified. The
nine associated funerary objects are
copper bracelets.
The Marina site is a multi-component
habitation and mortuary site that
represents at least 200 years of human
activity at La Pointe, WI, including
Indian villages and cemeteries as well as
Catholic missions. It was a focal point
of the western Great Lakes fur trade.
Near the end of the fur trade era,
Frederick Baraga established a cemetery
for his Catholic mission’s Indian and
mixed-blood congregation.
Archeological excavations were

conducted in 1975 to salvage
information that was under threat of
destruction from planned construction
of a sewer main. All human remains
excavated from the site, with the
exception of those reported here, were
transferred in 1976 from Beloit College
to the Red Cliff Band of Lake Superior
Chippewa Indians of Wisconsin.
Burial 2 was located in the central
part of the Marina site near several other
burials that likely date to circa 1715–
1770. Burial 12 was located in close
proximity to the Baraga Mission
cemetery established in the 1830s and
most likely dates to the mission era or
later (post 1835). Both individuals are
Native American based on the
archeological context. La Pointe is a
traditional home of the Lake Superior
Ojibwa, although other tribes lived there
periodically. The Federally-recognized
Lake Superior Ojibwa Indian tribes
affiliated to this area are the Bad River
Band of Lake Superior Indians of the
Bad River Reservation, Wisconsin; Lac
Courte Oreilles Band of Lake Superior
Chippewa Indians of Wisconsin; Lac du
Flambeau Band of Lake Superior
Chippewa Indians of the Lac du
Flambeau Reservation of Wisconsin;
Red Cliff Band of Lake Superior
Chippewa Indians of Wisconsin; St.
Croix Chippewa Community of
Wisconsin; and Sokaogon Chippewa
Community, Wisconsin.
Officials of the Logan Museum of
Anthropology, Beloit College, have
determined, pursuant to 25 U.S.C.
3001(9), that the human remains
described above represent the physical
remains of two individuals of Native
American ancestry. Officials of the
Logan Museum of Anthropology, Beloit
College, also have determined, pursuant
to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(A), that the nine
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
Logan Museum of Anthropology, Beloit
College, have determined, pursuant to
25 U.S.C. 3001(2), that 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

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 and associated funerary items
that were in possession of the Museum
of Anthropology at Washington State
University, Pullman, WA. The human
remains and associated funerary objects
were removed from Asotin 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 and
associated funerary objects. The
National Park Service is not responsible
for the determinations in this notice.
A detailed assessment of the human
remains was made by the Museum of
Anthropology at the Washington State
University professional staff in
consultation with representatives of the
Confederated Tribes of the Colville
Reservation, Washington; Confederated
Tribes of the Umatilla Indian
Reservation, Oregon; Confederated
Tribes of the Warm Springs Reservation
of Oregon; Confederated Tribes and
Bands of the Yakama Nation,

This notice corrects the minimum
number of individuals for a Notice of
Inventory Completion published in the
Federal Register (75 FR 41883–41884,
July 19, 2010). After repatriation and
reburial, a re-evaluation of inventory
numbers by a tribal representative
resulted in an increase in the number of
individuals from two to six in one of the
two sites described in the previously
published notice.
Paragraph number 4 is corrected by
substituting the following paragraph:
In June and July of 1951, human
remains representing a minimum of six
individuals were removed from the
Steptoe Burial site (45AS2), in Asotin
County, WA. The burials were removed
as part of an archeological study
performed by the Department of
Anthropology at Washington State
University under the direction of Dr.
Richard Daugherty. No known
individuals were identified. The 57
associated funerary objects are 4
projectile points, 2 scrapers, 1 bone
scraper handle, 1 lot of mussel shells, 1
lot of red ochre, 2 bone awls, 1 lot of
charcoal, 1 pestle, 2 lots of cedar wood
fragments, 3 lots of shell beads, 1 stone
bead necklace, 2 bifaces, 5 lots of bag

6 lots of fabric fragments, 3 lots of nails,
2 lots of metal fragments, 3 lots of glass
beads, 3 lots of modified wood
fragments, and 5 lots of leather
fragments.
Paragraph 10 is replaced with the
following:
Officials of the Museum of
Anthropology at the Washington State
University have determined, pursuant to
25 U.S.C. 3001(9), that the human
remains described above represent the
physical remains of nine individuals of
Native American ancestry. Officials of
the Museum of Anthropology at the
Washington State University also have
determined, pursuant to 25 U.S.C.
3001(3)(A), that the 59 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
Museum of Anthropology at the
Washington State University, have
determined, pursuant to 25 U.S.C.
3001(2), that there is a relationship of
shared group identity that can be
reasonably traced between the Native
