History and description of the remains

    In 1985, human remains representing, at minimum, one individual 
(Specimen 7) were removed from an unknown location along the 
Snake River, most likely in Washington. No known individuals were 
identified. No associated funerary objects are present.

Determinations made by the University of Washington, Department of 
Anthropology

    Officials of the University of Washington, Department of 
Anthropology, have determined that:
     Based on cranial morphology, 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.
     According to final judgments of the Indian Claims 
Commission, the land from which the Native American human remains were 
removed is the aboriginal land of the Walla Walla, Palus, and Nez 
Perce. The Walla Walla are represented by the present day members of 
the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation (previously 
listed as the confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Reservation, Oregon). 
The Palus are represented by the present day Confederated Tribes and 
Bands of the Yakama Nation; Confederated Tribes of the Colville 
Reservation; Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation 
(previously listed as the confederated Tribes of the Umatilla 
Reservation, Oregon); and the Nez Perce Tribe (previously listed as Nez 
Perce Tribe of Idaho) (hereafter referred to as ``The Aboriginal Land 
Tribes'').
     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 Aboriginal Land Tribes.
     Other credible lines of evidence indicate that the land 
from which the Native American human remains were removed is the 
aboriginal land of The Aboriginal Land Tribes and the Wanapum Band of 
Priest Rapids, a non-Federally recognized Indian group.
     Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the human remains described 
in this notice represent the physical remains of one individual of 
Native American ancestry.
     Pursuant to 43 CFR 10.11(c)(1), the disposition of the 
human remains may be to The Aboriginal Land Tribes and the Wanapum 
Band, a non-Federally recognized Indian group.

Additional Requestors and Disposition

    Representatives of any Indian tribe that believes itself to be 
culturally affiliated with the human remains or any other Indian tribe 
that believes it satisfies the criteria in 43 CFR 10.11(c)(1) should 
contact Peter Lape, Burke Museum, University of Washington, Box 353010, 
Seattle, WA 98195, telephone (206) 685-3849, before April 29, 2013. 
Disposition of the human remains to The Aboriginal Land Tribes and the 
Wanapum Band, a non-Federally recognized Indian group may proceed after 
that date if no additional requestors come forward.
    The University of Washington, Department of Anthropology is 
responsible for notifying The Consulted, Invited, and Notified Tribes 
that this notice has been published.
