History and Description of the Cultural
Item(s)
Between 1957 and 1960, human
remains representing at minimum, 58
individuals were removed from the
Chambers site (36LR11) in Lawrence
County, PA. John A. Zakucia, a private
individual, excavated from 1957 to
1959, with permission from the
landowners. He donated human remains
and associated funerary objects to

CMNH personnel assisted Zakucia in
his excavations. During these
excavations, 2530 additional,
unaffiliated cultural items were
removed from the Chambers Site
(36LR11) in Lawrence County, PA. The
2,531 unassociated funerary objects, are
1953 flint fragments; 373 scrapers and
knives; 40 points and fragments; 4

Determinations Made by the Carnegie
Museum of Natural History
Officials of the Carnegie Museum of
Natural History have determined that:
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(B),
the 2530 cultural items described above
are not 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 and are
believed, by a preponderance of the
evidence, not to have been removed
from a specific burial site of a Native
American individual. However, since
these objects were excavated from above
and below a historic cemetery
associated with an historic Delaware
village, and since the Delaware consider
them by proximity to be part of the
burials from that cemetery, they become
de facto funerary objects.
• Because of the point above,
pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(2), there is
a relationship of shared group identity
that can be reasonably traced between
the unassociated funerary objects and
Delaware Tribe of Indians.
Additional Requestors and Disposition
Lineal descendants or representatives
of any Indian tribe or Native Hawaiian
organization not identified in this notice
that wish to claim these cultural items
should submit a written request with
information in support of the claim to
Deborah G Harding, Collection Manager,
Section of Anthropology, Carnegie
Museum of Natural History, 5800 Baum
Blvd., Pittsburgh, PA 15206, telephone
(412–665–2608) email hardingd@
carnegiemnh.org, by December 17, 2015.
After that date, if no additional
claimants have come forward, transfer
of control of the unassociated funerary
objects to the Delaware Tribe of Indians
may proceed.
The Carnegie Museum of Natural
History is responsible for notifying the
Delaware Tribe of Indians that this
notice has been published.
