History and Description of the Remains
In 1963, human remains representing,
at minimum, one individual were
removed from Useless Bay in Island
County, WA. The remains were
removed by Bob Atwell and Emil
Gabeline and subsequently donated to
the Burke Museum (Burke Accn. #1963–
50). During initial consultations, the
remains were believed to have been
removed from Careless Bay in Island
County, WA. The remains were
included in a Notice of Inventory
Completion published in the Federal
Register (78 FR 45958–45959, July 30,
2013). After further research it has been
determined that the remains were
collected from Useless Bay on southern
Whidbey Island. A Correction Notice of
Inventory Completion will be
forthcoming and will remove the
relevant paragraph. No known
individuals were identified. No funerary
objects are present.
Native American speakers of the
Northern dialect of the Lushootseed
language claim cultural heritage to
southern Whidbey Island. Historical and
anthropological sources (Mooney 1896,
Ruby and Brown 1986, Spier 1936, and
Swanton 1952) indicate that the
Snohomish occupied southern Whidbey
Island. The Sdugwadskabsh band of
Snohomish people lived at Newell at
Useless Bay (Swanton 1952). The Indian
Claims Commission determined that
Useless Bay was within the aboriginal
territory of the Snohomish people.
Holmes Harbor was one of the areas the
Stillaguamish and other tribes were told
to move to after being forced to leave
their villages on the mainland (Deur
2009, Grady 2012). Holmes Harbor is in
close proximity to Useless Bay. Today,
descendants of Snohomish are
represented by the Tulalip Tribes of
Washington.
Determinations Made by the Burke
Museum
Officials of the Burke Museum have
determined that:
• Based on archaeological evidence,
the human remains have been
determined to be Native American.
• 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 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 Stillaguamish Tribe of
Indians of Washington (previously
listed as Stillaguamish Tribe of
VerDate Mar<15>2010
17:55 Oct 24, 2013
Jkt 232001
Washington) and the Tulalip Tribes of
Washington (previously listed as the
Tulalip Tribes of the Tulalip
Reservation, Washington).
Additional Requestors and Disposition
Lineal descendants or representatives
of any Indian tribe or Native Hawaiian
organization not identified in this notice
that wish to request transfer of control
of these human remains should submit
a written request with information in
support of the request to Peter Lape,
Burke Museum, University of
Washington, Box 353010, Seattle, WA
98195, telephone (206) 685–3849, email
plape@uw.edu, by November 25, 2013.
After that date, if no additional
requestors have come forward, transfer
of control of the human remains to the
Stillaguamish Tribe of Indians of
Washington (previously listed as
Stillaguamish Tribe of Washington) and
the Tulalip Tribes of Washington
(previously listed as the Tulalip Tribes
of the Tulalip Reservation, Washington)
may proceed.
The Burke Museum is responsible for
notifying The Consulted Tribes that this
notice has been published.

This notice is published as part of the

the museum, institution, or Federal

for the determinations in this notice.
This notice corrects the control of the
human remains and associated funerary
objects from site 5CN26, Conejos
County, CO, published in a Notice of
Inventory Completion in the Federal
Register (73 FR 62533–62535, October
21, 2008). The human remains and
associated funerary objects in this
paragraph are not under the control of
the University of Denver Museum of
Anthropology. Transfer of control of the
items in this correction notice has not
occurred.
Correction
In the Federal Register (73 FR 62533–
62535, October 21, 2008), paragraph 4,
sentences one and two are corrected by
substituting the following sentences:
This notice corrects a Notice of Inventory
Completion published in the Federal
Register (66 FR 51472–51474, October 9,
2001) by deleting paragraphs 4–8 and 11–12,
and substituting paragraphs 9–10 and 13–15.
The original notice is corrected because after
further consideration of museum records,
consultation with tribal representatives and
Federal agency officials, the controller for the
minimum of three individuals of the original
nine individuals described in the notice was
misattributed and the cultural affiliation for
the remaining six individuals was incorrect.
In the Federal Register (73 FR 62533–
62535, October 21, 2008), paragraph 5,
sentence three is corrected by
substituting the following sentences:
The museum has also determined that
control of the human remains and associated
funerary objects in paragraphs 7–8 is
misattributed for DU CO X:16:12 per 43 CFR
10.2(a)(3)(ii). A separate notice will be
published by the Bureau of Land
Management with that determination. Based
on this information, paragraphs 7–8 and 11–
12 are deleted from the original notice (66 FR
51472–51474, October 9, 2001).
In the Federal Register (73 FR 62533–
62535, October 21, 2008), paragraph 6,
sentence two is corrected by replacing
the number seven with the number six.
