were donated by the Hubbell family to
the National Park Service in

have been displayed in the Trading Post
Rug Room by Roman Hubbell. The
human remains consist of one human
skull of indeterminate age and sex. No
known individual was identified. No
associated funerary objects are present.

remains. In December 2016, Hubbell
Trading Post National Historic Site
requested that the Secretary, through the
Native American Graves Protection and
Repatriation Review Committee,
recommend the proposed transfer of
control of the culturally unidentifiable
Native American human remains in this
notice to the Hopi Tribe of Arizona and
Navajo Nation, Arizona, New Mexico &
Utah. The Review Committee, acting
pursuant to its responsibility under 25
U.S.C. 3006(c)(5), considered the
request at its March 2017 meeting and
recommended to the Secretary that the
proposed transfer of control proceed. An
April 2017 letter on behalf of the
Secretary of the Interior from the
National Park Service Associate Director
for Cultural Resources, Partnerships,
and Science transmitted the Secretary’s
independent review and concurrence
with the Review Committee that:
• None of The Consulted Tribes or
The Invited Tribes objected to the
proposed transfer of control, and
• Hubbell Trading Post National
Historic Site may proceed with the
agreed-upon transfer of control of the
culturally unidentifiable human
remains to the Hopi Tribe of Arizona
and the Navajo Nation, Arizona, New
Mexico & Utah.
Transfer of control is contingent on
the publication of a Notice of Inventory
Completion in the Federal Register.
This notice fulfills that requirement.

History and Description of the Remains
At an unknown date, human remains
representing, at minimum, one
individual were removed from an
unknown site in Baldwinsville,
Onondaga County, NY. In 1886, the
Oberlin College Museum received
human remains described as ‘‘Skull of
Onondaga Indian’’ acquired from an
‘‘Ancient Burial Place, Baldwinsville,
NY.’’ S.M. Dunbar is listed as the donor.
The human remains were retained by
Oberlin College after the museum’s
closure in the 1950s and are now in the
care of the Oberlin College Department
of Anthropology. The human remains
consist of one probable female,
approximately 18–35 years old.
‘‘Onondaga’’ is written in black ink on
the human remains. No known
individuals were identified. No
associated funerary objects are present.
Osteological examination identifies
these human remains as representing an
individual of Native American ancestry.
Their geographic affiliation with the
territory of the Onondaga Nation is
documented through collection
evidence, oral history, and scholarly
sources. During consultation, the
Onondaga Nation’s NAGPRA contact,
Tony Gonyea, identified Baldwinsville
as located in the heart of the traditional
area of the Onondaga Nation.
Archeological data demonstrate the
Onondaga Nation’s continued
occupation of the Baldwinsville area
since at least the Late Woodland period.
