Rhoads Mound is a protohistoric site
(A.D. 1500–1770) located on Roberts
Island in the San Joaquin-Sacramento
River delta. The island lies at the
southern edge of aboriginal territory of
the Eastern (Bay and Plains) Miwok and
the northern edge of aboriginal territory
of the Northern Valley Yokut.
At an unknown date, human remains
representing, at minimum, two
individuals were removed from Walkers
Slough Mound in San Joaquin County,
CA. At an unknown date, they became
part of the collection of H.K. Deisher,
which was sold in 1905. In 1916, the
remains were catalogued into the
collection of the Department of Physical
Anthropology, Museum of the American
Indian. In 1956, the remains were
transferred to Dr. Theodore Kazamiroff,
New York University College of
Dentistry. No known individuals were
identified. No associated funerary
objects are present.
The Walkers Slough Mound is a
historic site (A.D. 1770–1850) located
near Stockton, in the area of the San
Joaquin River Valley. The mound lies at
the southern edge of aboriginal territory
of the Eastern (Bay and Plains) Miwok
and the northern edge of aboriginal
territory of the Northern Valley Yokut.
The territorial divisions within the
aboriginal lands of the Eastern (Bay and
Plains) Miwok and the Northern Valley
Yokut was diffuse and shifted through
time. During consultation, tribal
representatives stated that the early
anthropological studies of the Yokuts
and Miwok incorrectly divided these
groups into discrete tribelets and
overemphasized linguistic differences.
Tribal representatives explained that
although different dialects were spoken,
the Miwok spoke a mutually intelligible
language. The Yokuts also spoke a
mutually intelligible language with
regional dialects. Tribal representatives
indicated that high population mobility
and frequent intermarriage between
groups during the historic period has
resulting in a relationship of shared
group identity for all Miwok tribes.
Similarly, tribal representatives
indicated that the Yokuts are all
interrelated due to high population
mobility and frequent intermarriage
between groups.
Tribal representatives identified the
descendants of the Eastern Miwok
among the members of the Federallyrecognized Miwok communities,
including the Buena Vista Rancheria of
Me-Wuk Indians of California;
California Valley Miwok Tribe,
California; Chicken Ranch Rancheria of
Me-Wuk Indians of California;
Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria,
California; Ione Band of Miwok Indians

Determinations Made by the New York
University College of Dentistry
Officials of the New York University
College of Dentistry have determined
that:
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the
human remains described in this notice
represent the physical remains of four
individuals of Native American
ancestry.
• 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 The Tribes.

History and Description of the Remains
ACTION:
In 1950, human remains representing,
at minimum, two individuals were
removed from the west shore of
Flathead Lake, north of the Flathead
Reservation, in Lake County, MT. This
pre-contact burial was disturbed by
excavation equipment and then turned
over to the University of Montana,
Department of Anthropology. The
remains were discovered in the
University’s collection in 2011. Of the
two individuals present, one is the
nearly complete skeleton of an older
female, at least 50 years of age at death.
The second individual, represented only
by several vertebrae, was also elderly,
but exact age and sex cannot be
determined. No known individuals were
identified. No associated funerary
objects are present.
In 1950, human remains representing,
at minimum, one individual were
removed from a primary, flexed burial
in a rock outcropping on the west shore
of Flathead Lake, in Lake County, MT,
during real estate development. The site
is within the boundaries of the Flathead
Reservation but on private land near the
town of Dayton, MT. Local amateur
archaeologist, Thain White, contacted
Carling Malouf of the University of
Montana, Department of Anthropology,
and the remains and associated funerary
objects were removed to the University
of Montana in Missoula. The human
remains and associated funerary objects
were discovered in the University’s
collection in 2011. The mostly complete
skeleton is of a male, aged 35 to 50 years
at death. No known individual was
identified. The eight associated funerary
objects are 1 large (6 cm) turtle-backed
stone scraper, 1 chalcedony flake, 2
shell beads, 3 antler pieces, and 1 lot of
faunal remains.
In 1950, during excavations for a
business establishment human remains
representing, at minimum, one
individual were removed by a bulldozer
from an historical Indian burial in the
city of Missoula, MT. This burial site
location is within the aboriginal
territory of the Confederated Salish and
Kootenai Tribes. The nearly complete
skeletal remains of a child, aged 7 to 8
years at death, and associated funerary
objects were transferred by the County
Coroner to the University of Montana,
The University of Montana
has completed an inventory of Native
American human remains and
associated funerary objects in
consultation with the Confederated
Salish and Kootenai Tribes of the
Flathead Indian Reservation, Montana,
and has determined that there is a
cultural affiliation between the human
remains and associated funerary objects
and the Confederated Salish and
Kootenai Tribes of the Flathead Indian
Reservation, Montana. Representatives
of any Indian tribe that believes itself to
be culturally affiliated with the human
remains and associated funerary objects
may contact the University of Montana.
Repatriation of the human remains and
associated funerary objects to the Indian
tribes stated below may occur if no
additional claimants come forward.
DATES: Representatives of any Indian
tribe that believes it has a cultural
affiliation with the human remains and
associated funerary objects should
contact the University of Montana at the
address below by August 20, 2012.
