In 1968 or earlier, human remains
representing a minimum of one
individual were recovered during
installation of a septic tank with a
backhoe at the Pine Point Resort,
Pickerel Lake, Ainsworth, Langlade
County, WI. The remains were recorded
as ‘‘Historic Indian,’’ suggesting funerary
objects may have been present, although
none are found in the collection. No
known individual was identified. No
associated funerary objects are present.
The Pine Point site was surveyed and
recorded as 47Lg21 (LMA 21493W), in
conjunction with the 1968 Wild Rivers
Project Site Survey, directed by Dr.
Robert J. Salzer, Beloit College Professor
of Anthropology. The owners of the
Pine Point Resort donated the recovered
remains to the Logan Museum of
Anthropology in 1968. The remains are
Native American based on
morphological evidence. Langlade
County is near historic Ojibwa and
Menominee settlements. The Federallyrecognized Menominee Indian tribe is
the Menominee Indian Tribe of
Wisconsin. The Federally-recognized
Ojibwa Indian tribes that are affiliated
with the area are the Bad River Band of
the Lake Superior Tribe of Chippewa
Indians of the Bad River Reservation,
Wisconsin; Lac Courte Oreilles Band of
Lake Superior Chippewa Indians of

Lake Superior Chippewa Indians of the
Lac du Flambeau Reservation of
Wisconsin; Red Cliff Band of Lake

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 one individual of Native
American ancestry. 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

between the Native American human
remains and the Bad River Band of the

AGENCY:
ACTION:
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 in the possession and control of
the Utah Museum of Natural History,
Salt Lake City, UT. The human remains
were removed from Snow Canyon State
Park, Washington County, UT.
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. The National
Park Service is not responsible for the
determinations in this notice.
A detailed assessment of the human
remains was made by the Utah Museum
of Natural History professional staff and
a report sent to representatives of the
Confederated Tribes of the Goshute
Reservation, Nevada and Utah;
Northwestern Band of Shoshoni Nation
of Utah (Washakie); Paiute Indian Tribe
of Utah (Cedar Band of Paiutes, Kanosh
Band of Paiutes, Koosharem Band of
Paiutes, Indian Peaks Band of Paiutes,
and Shivwits Band of Paiutes); Skull
Valley Band of Goshute Indians of Utah;
and the Ute Indian Tribe of the Uintah
& Ouray Reservation, Utah, on January
15, 2010. Consultation took place with
the Confederated Tribes of the Goshute
Reservation, Nevada and Utah, and
Paiute Indian Tribe of Utah.
In 1985, human remains representing
a minimum of one individual were
removed from Snow Canyon State Park,
Washington County, UT, by hikers and
reposited by Anasazi State Park. The
human remains were transferred to the
Utah Museum of Natural History and
accessioned into the collections in 1997.
No known individual was identified. No
associated funerary objects are present.
The result of an osteological analysis
indicates that the individual is Native
American and likely of Numic descent.
Based on the geographical location of
the burial it has been determined that
the individual was likely a member of
the Shivwits Band of the Paiute Indian
Tribe of Utah, who inhabited this area

A detailed assessment of the human
remains was made by the Logan
Museum of Anthropology, Beloit

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,

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
Bad River Band of Lake Superior
Indians of the Bad River Reservation,
Wisconsin; Lac Courte Oreilles Band of
Lake Superior Chippewa Indians of
