The Cocopah Tribe of Arizona; Colorado River Indian Tribes of the Colorado River Indian Reservation, Arizona and California; Fort Mojave Indian Tribe of Arizona, California, and Nevada; Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community of the Salt River Reservation, Arizona; and Zuni Tribe of the Zuni Reservation, New Mexico were also contacted for consultation purposes. History and Description of the Remains Between 1951 and 1954, human remains representing, at minimum, one individual were removed from site AZ Y:16:002 (ASM) in Pima County, AZ. The remains were removed during archeological fieldwork under the direction of Paul H. Ezell in a cooperative project between Arizona State Museum and the National Park Service. Project collections were stored at the NPS Southwestern National Monuments Headquarters, also known as the Southwest Archaeological Center, in Globe, AZ, for analysis and report preparation. The professional report was never completed. It is unclear at what point the cremated remains came to be in collections storage at the Arizona State Museum. No known individuals were identified. The 38 associated funerary objects are 2 faunal bone fragments and 36 fragments of charcoal. Based upon the archeological context, including the presence of Tanque Verde Red-on-Brown ceramics, the remains have been determined to be Native American dating to A.D. 1150–1450, commonly known to the archeological community as the Classic Hohokam period. A relationship of shared group identity can reasonably be traced between members of the Hohokam culture and the four southern O’odham tribes of Arizona. The O’odham people comprise four Federally recognized Indian tribes (the Ak Chin Indian Community of the Maricopa (Ak Chin) Indian Reservation, Arizona; Gila River Indian Community of the Gila River Indian Reservation, Arizona; Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community of the Salt River Reservation, Arizona; and Tohono O’odham Nation of Arizona) and one Indian Group that is not PO 00000 Frm 00079 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Federally recognized, the Hia C-ed O’odham. A Hia C-ed O’odham association with lands lying directly to the west of the Ajo Mountains, including Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument, is documented throughout the historic period and into the 20th century. O’odham oral histories describe the end time of the Hohokam, when O’odham armies gathered and marched on the Great House communities (e.g., Casa Grande, Pueblo Grande) and cast out the Hohokam societies there. The armies then occupied the conquered lands, intermarrying with the remnants of the Hohokam and ultimately becoming the O’odham people. Other evidence of the O’odham-Hohokam connection includes similar settlement patterns, irrigation systems, residence styles, and a possible relationship between modern O’odham kickball games and formal Hohokam ball courts. A relationship of shared group identity can also reasonably be traced between members of the Hohokam culture and the Hopi Tribe of Arizona. Hopi history is based, in large part, on clan migration narratives. The Hopi consider all of Arizona to be within traditional Hopi lands, i.e., areas in and through which Hopi clans are believed to have migrated in the past. Hopi oral history and the anthropological record show that some clans originated in the Salt-Gila region and were descended from the Hohokam. After the fall of the Great House communities, Hohokam refugees were absorbed into the Hopi culture. A relationship of shared group identity can also reasonably be traced between members of the Hohokam culture and the Zuni Tribe of the Zuni Reservation, New Mexico. Zuni oral history tells of ancestral migrations and settling throughout this region in their search for the Middle Place of the World (present day Pueblo of Zuni). Elders have identified features in the area, including shrines and petroglyphs, as Zuni. Zuni ancestors left many markers of their passing including trails, habitation sites, campsites, burials, sacred shrines, and rock art. Determinations Made by Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument Officials of Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument have determined that: • Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the human remains described in this notice represent the physical remains of one individual of Native American ancestry. • Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(A), the 38 objects described above are reasonably believed to have been placed E:\FR\FM\09DEN1.SGM 09DEN1 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 237 / Friday, December 9, 2011 / Notices with or near individual human remains at the time of death or later as part of the death rite or ceremony. • Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(2), 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 Ak Chin Indian Community of the Maricopa (Ak Chin) Indian Reservation, Arizona; Gila River Indian Community of the Gila River Indian Reservation, Arizona; Hopi Tribe of Arizona; Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community of the Salt River Reservation, Arizona; Tohono O’odham Nation of Arizona; and Zuni Tribe of the Zuni Reservation, New Mexico. srobinson on DSK4SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES Additional Requestors and Disposition Representatives of any Indian tribe that believes itself to be culturally affiliated with the human remains and associated funerary objects should contact Lee Baiza, Superintendent, Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument, 10 Organ Pipe Drive, Ajo, AZ 85321, telephone (520) 387–6849 ext. 7500 before January 9, 2012.

Cactus National Monument and Arizona State Museum professional staff in 
consultation with representatives of the Ak Chin Indian Community of 
the Maricopa (Ak Chin) Indian Reservation, Arizona; Gila River Indian 
Community of the Gila River Indian Reservation, Arizona; Hopi Tribe of

Arizona, California, and Nevada; Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian 
Community of the Salt River Reservation, Arizona; and Zuni Tribe of the 
Zuni Reservation, New Mexico were also contacted for consultation 
purposes.

History and Description of the Remains

    Between 1951 and 1954, human remains representing, at minimum, one 
individual were removed from site AZ Y:16:002 (ASM) in Pima County, AZ. 
The remains were removed during archeological fieldwork under the 
direction of Paul H. Ezell in a cooperative project between Arizona 
State Museum and the National Park Service. Project collections were 
stored at the NPS Southwestern National Monuments Headquarters, also 
known as the Southwest Archaeological Center, in Globe, AZ, for 
analysis and report preparation. The professional report was never 
completed. It is unclear at what point the cremated remains came to be 
in collections storage at the Arizona State Museum. No known 
individuals were identified. The 38 associated funerary objects are 2 
faunal bone fragments and 36 fragments of charcoal.
    Based upon the archeological context, including the presence of 
Tanque Verde Red-on-Brown ceramics, the remains have been determined to 
be Native American dating to A.D. 1150-1450, commonly known to the 
archeological community as the Classic Hohokam period.
    A relationship of shared group identity can reasonably be traced 
between members of the Hohokam culture and the four southern O'odham 
tribes of Arizona. The O'odham people comprise four Federally 
recognized Indian tribes (the Ak Chin Indian Community of the Maricopa 
(Ak Chin) Indian Reservation, Arizona; Gila River Indian Community of 
the Gila River Indian Reservation, Arizona; Salt River Pima-Maricopa 
Indian Community of the Salt River Reservation, Arizona; and Tohono 
O'odham Nation of Arizona) and one Indian Group that is not Federally 
recognized, the Hia C-ed O'odham. A Hia C-ed O'odham association with 
lands lying directly to the west of the Ajo Mountains, including Organ 
Pipe Cactus National Monument, is documented throughout the historic 
period and into the 20th century.
    O'odham oral histories describe the end time of the Hohokam, when 
O'odham armies gathered and marched on the Great House communities 
(e.g., Casa Grande, Pueblo Grande) and cast out the Hohokam societies 
there. The armies then occupied the conquered lands, intermarrying with 
the remnants of the Hohokam and ultimately becoming the O'odham people. 
Other evidence of the O'odham-Hohokam connection includes similar 
settlement patterns, irrigation systems, residence styles, and a 
possible relationship between modern O'odham kickball games and formal 
Hohokam ball courts.
    A relationship of shared group identity can also reasonably be 
traced between members of the Hohokam culture and the Hopi Tribe of 
Arizona. Hopi history is based, in large part, on clan migration 
narratives. The Hopi consider all of Arizona to be within traditional 
Hopi lands, i.e., areas in and through which Hopi clans are believed to

record show that some clans originated in the Salt-Gila region and were 
descended from the Hohokam. After the fall of the Great House 
communities, Hohokam refugees were absorbed into the Hopi culture.
    A relationship of shared group identity can also reasonably be 
traced between members of the Hohokam culture and the Zuni Tribe of the 
Zuni Reservation, New Mexico. Zuni oral history tells of ancestral 
migrations and settling throughout this region in their search for the

identified features in the area, including shrines and petroglyphs, as 
Zuni. Zuni ancestors left many markers of their passing including 
trails, habitation sites, campsites, burials, sacred shrines, and rock 
art.

Determinations Made by Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument

    Officials of Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument have determined 
that:
     Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the human remains described 
in this notice represent the physical remains of one individual of 
Native American ancestry.
     Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(A), the 38 objects described

[[Page 77013]]

with or near individual human remains at the time of death or later as 
part of the death rite or ceremony.
     Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(2), 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 Ak Chin

Arizona; Hopi Tribe of Arizona; Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian 
Community of the Salt River Reservation, Arizona; Tohono O'odham Nation 
of Arizona; and Zuni Tribe of the Zuni Reservation, New Mexico.

Additional Requestors and Disposition

    Representatives of any Indian tribe that believes itself to be 
culturally affiliated with the human remains and associated funerary 
objects should contact Lee Baiza, Superintendent, Organ Pipe Cactus 
National Monument, 10 Organ Pipe Drive, Ajo, AZ 85321, telephone (520) 
387-6849 ext. 7500 before January 9, 2012. Repatriation of the human
