History and Description of the Remains
In 1986, human remains representing,
at minimum, two individuals, were
delivered to the offices of the U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers, Walla Walla
District, by an unknown individual.
Notes with the collection stated that one
set of human remains had been removed
from the Klamath Lake area in Oregon
and the other from western Montana. It
is not known which set of human
remains was from which area. In 2001,
the human remains were turned over to
the Museum of Anthropology at
Washington State University. No known
individuals were identified. The two
associated funerary objects include 1
metal cup and 1 lot of fabric. Cultural
affiliation for these remains was based
primarily on the geographical locations
of removal. In addition, the character of
the associated funerary objects is very
similar to funerary objects often
associated with historic Native
American burials in the interior
northwest.
Determinations Made by the Museum of
Anthropology at Washington State
University
Officials of the Museum of
Anthropology at Washington State
University have determined that:
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the
human remains described in this notice
represent the physical remains of 2
individuals of Native American
ancestry.
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(A),
the 2 objects described in this notice are
reasonably believed to have been placed
with or near individual human remains
at the time of death or later as part of
the death rite or ceremony.
• 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 associated funerary objects
is to the Confederated Salish and
Kootenai Tribes of the Flathead
Reservation; Klamath Tribes; and the Pit
River Tribe, California (includes XL
Ranch, Big Bend, Likely, Lookout,
Montgomery Creek and Roaring Creek
Rancherias).
Additional Requestors and Disposition

of any Indian tribe or Native Hawaiian
organization not identified in this notice
