History and Description of the Remains
[NPS–WASO–NAGPRA–10221; 2200–1100–
665]
In the late nineteenth and early
twentieth centuries, human remains
representing, at minimum, two
individuals were removed from
unknown sites in the state of Maine.
The remains were a part of a collection
loan to the University of Maine, Hudson
Museum, by the former Portland Society
of Natural History and subsequently
donated to the University of Maine,
Hudson Museum by the Maine
Audubon Society. The human remains
are identified at the University of
Maine, Hudson Museum, as numbers 12
and 13. Number 12 is a mandible from
a female, age 18–40, and number 13 is
a mandible from a male, age 18–40.
Number 13 is consistent with
archaeological remains, while number
12 is not likely from an archaeological
context. No known individuals were
identified. No associated funerary
objects are present.
All human remains in the possession
of the University of Maine, Hudson
Museum, were reviewed by forensic
anthropologist Marcella Sorg, Ph.D., D–
ABFA on July 16, 2002, who was
assisted by former Hudson Museum
Director Stephen Whittington, Lisa
Hunter, and Kentra Gleuck. The
resulting report indicates the minimum
number of individuals, age, sex,
ancestry, and provenience if available.
The human remains represented by #12
and #13 were determined to be of Native
American ancestry and have
provenience to the ancestral territories
of the Aroostook Band of Micmacs
Indians of Maine, Houlton Band of
Maliseet Indians of Maine,
Passamaquoddy Tribe of Maine, and the
Penobscot Tribe of Maine.
