SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is

Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), 25 U.S.C.
3003, of the completion of an inventory
of human remains under the control of
the Human Remains Repository,
Department of Anthropology, University

remains were removed from the west
side of the Miners Point site (HR330),
Kodiak Island, AK.
This notice is published as part of the
National Park Service’s administrative
responsibilities under NAGPRA, 25
U.S.C. 3003(d)(3). The determinations in
this notice are the sole responsibility of
the museum, institution, or Federal
agency that has control of the Native
American human remains. The National
Park Service is not responsible for the
determinations in this notice.
Consultation
A detailed assessment of the human
remains was made by the Human
Remains Repository, Department of
Anthropology, University of Wyoming,
professional staff in consultation with
representatives of the Native Village of
Larsen Bay.
History and Description of the Remains
Prior to 1991, human remains
representing, at minimum, one
individual were removed from the west
side of the Miner’s Point site (HR330),
Kodiak Island, AK, probably by a Rock
Springs, WY, physician. By 1991, the
human remains had been given to
Western Wyoming College in Rock
PO 00000

Springs, WY. In October 2016, the
University of Wyoming evaluated the
NAGPRA status of all human remains in
their possession. Following analysis, in
December of 2016, the Miner’s Point
individual (HR330) was formally
accessioned into the Human Remains
Repository, Department of
Anthropology, University of Wyoming.
The remains consist of a fragmentary
human cranium of a Native American
male, over the age of 50. No known
individual was identified. No associated
funerary objects are present.
The human remains are of an
unknown age. The Alutiiq people assert
that they have continuously lived on
Kodiak Island and the surrounding areas
for at least 7,000 years, which is the
entire human history of the location.
The human remains exhibit skeletal
characteristics consistent with an
assessment of Alaskan Native.
Determinations Made by the Human
Remains Repository, Department of
Anthropology, University of Wyoming
Officials of the Human Remains
Repository, Department of
Anthropology, University of Wyoming
have determined that:
• 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(3)(A),
no objects are present that 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 the Native Village of Larsen
Bay.
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 Dr. Rick L.
Weathermon, Curator, Human Remains
Repository, Department 3431,
Anthropology, 1000 East University
Avenue, University of Wyoming,
Laramie, WY 82071, telephone (307)
