History and Description of the Cultural
Item
In 1961, one cultural item was
donated to the Catalina Island Museum
by Catherine Loud as part of a set of 13
baskets, both of native and non-native
origin, with no contextual information
provided. Requests for information were
sent out to tribes based on preliminary
assessments of potential affiliation.
Based on consultation with the
Timbisha Shoshone, catalog number
61.484.13 was identified as a cremation
basket and part of a living ceremonial
tradition. The Timbisha Shoshone (aka
Panamint Shoshone) are located in
Death Valley, CA and as part of their
final death rites, after cremation
occurred, the ashes were collected and
placed in a specifically designed basket.
This basket is identified as one of them,
although no human remains were found
with the basket.
Determinations Made by the Catalina
Island Museum
Officials of the Catalina Island
Museum have determined that:
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(C),
the 1 cultural item described above is a
specific ceremonial object needed by
traditional Native American religious
leaders for the practice of traditional
Native American religions by their
present-day adherents.
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(2), there
is a relationship of shared group
identity that can be reasonably traced
between the sacred object and the
Timbisha Shoshone Tribe of Death
Valley.
Additional Requestors and Disposition

of any Indian tribe or Native Hawaiian
organization not identified in this notice
that wish to claim this cultural item

removed from either Albany, Whiteside
County, IL or Evanston, Cook County,
IL. The second set of human remains
was removed from Evanston, Cook
County, IL.

A detailed assessment of the human

History Center professional staff in
consultation with representatives of
Delaware Nation, Oklahoma; Forest
County Potawatomi Community,
Wisconsin; Hannahville Indian
Community, Michigan; Ho-Chunk
Nation of Wisconsin; Iowa Tribe of

History and Description of the Remains
In 1878, human remains representing,
at minimum, one individual were
removed from either Albany, Whiteside
County, IL (Albany Mounds, site
11WT1) or Evanston, Cook County, IL.
Conflicting provenance indicated on
inventory tags and lack of accession
records complicate the history of these
human remains. One document asserts
it is the skull of a Native American girl
removed from a mound on the upper
terrace of hills on the Mississippi river
near Albany, IL in 1878 and was
donated by F.S. Pooler (donation date
unknown). Another document indicates
that the skull was unearthed in a burial
ground on the site of the present
Evanston Hospital. It is unknown what
methods were used in determining the
age or gender of the cranium. No known
individuals were identified. No
associated funerary objects are present.
On an unknown date, prior to 1929,
human remains representing, at

discovered. No known individuals were
identified. No associated funerary
objects are present.

History Center
