Consultation

    A detailed assessment of the human remains was made by the Peabody 
Museum of Natural History professional staff in consultation with a 
representative of the Three Affiliated Tribes of the Fort Berthold 
Reservation, North Dakota (hereafter the ``Three Affiliated Tribes'').

History and Description of the Remains

    In 1904, human remains representing, at minimum, one individual 
were removed from the On-A-Slant Village site (32-Mo-0026) in Morton 
County, ND, by a private individual. In 1915, the human remains were 
donated to the Peabody Museum of Natural History. The human remains 
represent one adult, probably male. No known individual was identified. 
No associated funerary objects are present.
    Between 1903 and 1906, human remains representing, at minimum, one 
individual were removed from the Scattered Village site (32-Mo-0031) in 
Morton County, ND, by a private individual. In 1915, the human remains 
were donated to the Peabody Museum. The human remains represent one 
subadult 12-15 years old, sex indeterminate. No known individual was 
identified. No associated funerary objects are present.
    Located near the mouth of the Heart River, On-A-Slant Village is 
recognized as a late prehistoric and protohistoric earth lodge village 
of the Mandan whose descendants are today members of the Three 
Affiliated Tribes. Scattered Village was a large prehistoric and 
historic settlement located on the north side of the Heart River on the 
eastern side of the modern city of Mandan, ND. The inhabitants of 
Scattered Village have been identified as either Hidatsa or Mandan 
whose descendants are today members of the Three Affiliated Tribes.

Native American ancestry.
