Officials of the Longyear Museum of

• Based on the presence of Native
American artifacts in the Howe

Oklahoma; Delaware Tribe of Indians,
Oklahoma; Eastern Shawnee Tribe of
Oklahoma; Little Traverse Bay Bands of
Odawa Indians, Michigan; Shawnee
Tribe, Oklahoma; and the Wyandotte
Nation, Oklahoma. The Little Traverse

the United States Government,
including land that is now Marion
