items in the possession of the University
of Denver Museum of Anthropology,
Denver, CO, that meet the definition of
unassociated funerary objects under 25

This notice is published as part of the
National Park Service’s administrative

determinations in this notice.
History and Description of the Cultural
Items
In 1968, the University of Denver
Museum of Anthropology acquired the
collection of Mr. Fallis F. Rees, an
amateur archeologist, who researched
ancient civilizations. He housed his
artifact collection in his Ko-Kas-Ki
Museum in Pinedale, CO, before
transferring it to the University of
Denver Museum of Anthropology. The
following cultural items came to the
University of Denver Museum of
Anthropology as part of the Rees
Collection.
At an unknown date, two stone
figurine fragments (DU 3915 A–B) were
removed from unknown sites near Gila
Crossing Ruin in Maricopa or Pinal
County, AZ, by an unknown individual.
At an unknown date, one stone figurine
fragment (DU 3915 C), depicting a
female head and partial torso, was
removed from an unknown site in the
Gila River area, AZ, by an unknown
individual. Fallis Rees obtained this
object from Frank Midvale, a
southwestern archeologist who lived
and worked in southern and central
Arizona. All three figurines (DU 3915
A–C) resemble Santa Cruz Phase
figurines from the Snaketown site and
PO 00000
Frm 00130
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
are made from vesicular basalt. The
archeological evidence places the
Snaketown site within the
archeologically-defined Hohokam
tradition. Museum records indicate the
figurine fragments were removed from
cremation burials.
At an unknown date, one stone
cylinder with flat base (DU 3973) was
removed from an unknown site near
Phoenix Ruins in Maricopa County, AZ,
by an unknown individual. The
cylinder features a shallow depression
on one end with two rattlesnakes carved
head to tail on the rim. Fallis Rees
obtained this object from Frank
Midvale, a southwestern archeologist
who lived and worked in southern and
central Arizona. DU 3973 is identified
as belonging to the Santa Cruz or
Sacaton Phase of the Hohokam
archeological tradition. Museum records
indicate the cylinder was removed from
a cremation burial.
At an unknown date, two stone
palettes (DU 3984 and 3987) were
removed from unknown sites in Arizona
by an unknown individual. DU 3984
features irregular incised triangles on
the rim. DU 3987 is greenish-grey in
color and features an incised groove
border, beveled edges and a smoothed
back. At an unknown date, one stone
palette (DU 3986) was removed from an
unknown site near Phoenix in Maricopa
County, AZ, in the Salt River Valley, by
an unknown individual. DU 3986 is
made from soapstone and features a
shallow incised border on a smoothed
surface. At an unknown date, one stone
palette (DU3989) was removed from an
unknown site in New River, Maricopa
County, AZ, by an unknown individual.
DU 3989 features a water bird design
with double incised lines inside the
border and notched edges. Areas of loss
have been reconstructed at some point
prior to 1968. Fallis Rees obtained this
object from Frank Midvale, a
southwestern archeologist who lived
and worked in southern and central
Arizona. DU 3984 is identified as
belonging to the Sacaton Phase of the
Hohokam Archeological tradition.
Museum records identify DU 3986,
3987, and 3989 as part of the Hohokam
Archeological tradition. Consultation
and museum records indicate that
palettes are known to be associated with
burials.
At an unknown date, one stone
fragment (DU 3991), identified as part of
a fetish, was removed from an unknown
site near Gila Butte in Pinal County, AZ,
by an unknown individual. The
fragment features painted designs in
black and white, partial double
perforations, and beveled edges. At an
unknown date, one stone fragment (DU

3992) was removed from an unknown
site near Cashion in Maricopa County,
AZ, by an unknown individual. The
fragment features one edge with a
continuous curved arc and the other
edge with uneven curves including one
partial perforation near one end. Both
stone fragments (DU 3991 and 3992)
show evidence of being burned and are
believed to have been removed from
cremation burials. Museum records
identify the stone fragments as part of
the Hohokam Archeological tradition.
The Gila River Indian Community of
the Gila River Indian Reservation,
Arizona, and the Salt River PimaMaricopa Indian Community of the Salt
River Reservation, Arizona, have
submitted repatriation claims for the
cultural items described in this notice,
on behalf of themselves and the Ak Chin
Indian Community of the Maricopa (Ak
Chin) Indian Reservation, Arizona and
the Tohono O’odham Nation of Arizona
(hereinafter referred to as ‘‘The Four
Southern Tribes of Arizona’’). The Gila
River Indian Community of the Gila
River Indian Reservation, Arizona, has
requested the repatriation of DU 3915
A–C, 3984, 3987 and 3991. The Salt
River Pima-Maricopa Indian
Community of the Salt River

The Gila River Indian Community of
the Gila River Reservation, Arizona, and
the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian
Community of the Salt River
Reservation, Arizona, provided
archeological, biological, geographical,
kinship, linguistic, historical and oral
tradition evidence establishing a close
relationship of shared group identity
that can be traced both historically and
prehistorically between the Four
Southern Tribes of Arizona and the
Hohokam tradition. Oral tradition
evidence also indicates a close
relationship of shared group identity
that can be traced both historically and
prehistorically between the Hopi Tribe
of Arizona and the Zuni Tribe of the
Zuni Reservation, New Mexico, and the
Hohokam tradition.
