Consultation
A detailed assessment of the human
remains was made by the National
Museum of Health and Medicine
professional staff in consultation with
representatives of the Qawalangin Tribe
of Unalaska.
History and Description of the Remains
A single human skeleton was
collected in 1872 by W.H. Dall on behalf
of the Smithsonian Institution. The
human remains were found in a
compartment of what had been a large
community house on Amaknak Island,
Captain’s Bay, Unalaska, AK.
The human remains were received at
the Army Medical Museum (AMM) from
the U.S. National Museum Smithsonian
Institution on November 15, 1872, and
accessioned into the AMM as PS 12937
on November 21, 1872.
On August 24, 1904 by order of the
AMM Curator James Carroll, the human
remains were returned to the U.S.
National Museum, Smithsonian
Institution, except for the pathological
portions of the skeleton. These portions
remain to this day as PS 12937 at the
National Museum of Health and
Medicine (NMHM), formally known as
the AMM.
Accession documents relating to the
collection history of these human
remains were retained by the
Smithsonian. Through a recent review
of records in consultation with the
Smithsonian Institution Repatriation
Office, provenance for these remains has
been reassociated. No known
individuals were identified. No
associated funerary objects are present.
The human remains consist of the
spine, hips, and ribs. The remains show
ankylosing spondylitis, kyphosis, and
fusion of the interpubic joint.
Morphological characteristics of the
hips indicate male sex. The remains are
those of an adult.
Accession file information indicates
that the individual is an Aleut male
approximately 40 years of age from
Amaknak Island, Captain’s Bay,
Unalaska. Evidence of a male with
ankylosing spondylitis and kyphosis is
consistent with the biological and
pathological description in the
accession file documents.
Determinations Made by the National
Museum of Health and Medicine
Officials of the National Museum of
Health and Medicine have determined
that:

History and Description of the Remains

remains representing, at minimum,
three individuals (HP.RO–0364.1) were
removed from the Diedrick Burials site
(47–RO–0364) in Rock County, WI. The
human remains were initially disturbed
by plowing and subsequently surface
collected by the land owners over the
course of several years. Archeological
field schools from College of Lake

and 1990, at which time more human
remains were discovered. In 1990, the
human remains were reported to the
