     Based on osteological analysis, the human remains are 
Native American.
     Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(2), a relationship of shared 
group identity cannot be reasonably traced between the Native American 
human remains and any present-day Indian tribe.

removed is the aboriginal land of the Fort McDowell Yavapai Nation, 
Arizona; Havasupai Tribe of the Havasupai Reservation, Arizona; Hopi 
Tribe of Arizona; Hualapai Indian Tribe of the Hualapai Indian 
Reservation, Arizona; Kaibab Band of Paiute Indians of the Kaibab

White Mountain Apache Tribe of the Fort Apache Reservation, Arizona; 
Yavapai-Apache Nation of the Camp Verde Indian Reservation, Arizona; 
and Yavapai-Prescott Tribe of the Yavapai Reservation, Arizona.
     Multiple lines of evidence, including treaties, Acts of 
Congress, and Executive Orders, indicate that the land from which the 
Native American human remains were removed is the aboriginal land of 
the Havasupai Tribe of the Havasupai Reservation, Arizona; Hopi Tribe 
of Arizona; Hualapai Indian Tribe of the Hualapai Indian Reservation, 
Arizona; Jicarilla Apache Nation, New Mexico; Kaibab Band of Paiute 
Indians of the Kaibab Indian Reservation, Arizona; Mescalero Apache 
Tribe of the Mescalero Reservation, New Mexico; Navajo Nation, Arizona, 
New Mexico & Utah; San Carlos Apache Tribe of the San Carlos 
Reservation, Arizona; San Juan Southern Paiute Tribe of Arizona; Tonto 
Apache Tribe of Arizona; and White Mountain Apache Tribe of the Fort 
Apache Reservation, Arizona.
     Other credible lines of evidence, including consultation 
with tribal representatives, indicate that the land from which the 
Native American human remains were removed is the aboriginal land of 
the Zuni Tribe of the Zuni Reservation, New Mexico.
     Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the human remains described 
in this notice represent the physical remains of 24 individuals of 
Native American ancestry.
     Pursuant to 43 CFR 10.11(c)(1), the disposition of the 
human remains may be to the Fort McDowell Yavapai Nation, Arizona; 
Havasupai Tribe of the Havasupai Reservation, Arizona; Hopi Tribe of
