SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is
here given in accordance with the
Native American Graves Protection and
Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), 25 U.S.C.
3003, of the completion of an inventory
of human remains under the control of
the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers,
Omaha District and in the physical
custody of the South Dakota State
Archaeological Research Center (SARC).
The human remains were removed from
sites 39LM0002 and 39WW0001 in
Lyman and Walworth Counties, SD.
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 SARC and Omaha
District professional staff in
consultation with representatives of the
Three Affiliated Tribes of the Fort
Berthold Reservation, North Dakota.
History and Description of the Remains
In 1962, human remains representing,
at minimum, one individual were
removed from site 39LM0002 in Lyman
County, SD, by W.W. Caldwell and R.T.
Carter, archeologists from the
Smithsonian Institution, as part of the
Smithsonian Institution River Basin
Surveys project. Most of the human
remains from this excavation were sent
to the Smithsonian Institution
immediately after removal, where they
are still housed. Other site materials,
including faunal remains, were housed
at Nebraska State Historical Society and
later loaned to researcher Carl Falk. In
1989, the faunal remains at Nebraska
State Historical Society were returned to
SARC. In 1994, Carl Falk returned the
loaned faunal collection to SARC, and at
that time, human remains were
discovered in the faunal collection. The
human remains are a single human
talus. No known individual was
identified. No associated funerary
objects are present.
Site 39LM0002, Medicine Creek
Village, is a multicomponent village site
on the left bank of the Missouri river
near the confluence with Medicine
Creek. The human remains were
collected from a burial within a midden.
The rectangular earthlodge located
under the midden is associated with the
Initial Middle Missouri variant (A.D.
900–1350). Based on the earthlodge, as
well as collected ceramic types, site
features, and the house floor plans, the
human remains are determined to be
Native American from the Initial Middle
Missouri variant, which is ancestral to
the Mandan. The Mandan are
represented today by the Three
Affiliated Tribes of the Fort Berthold
Reservation, North Dakota.
In approximately 1956, human
remains representing, at minimum, one
individual were removed from site
39WW0001, in Walworth County, SD,
during a salvage archeological project to
mitigate sites that would be lost to the
Oahe Dam inundation. This project was
E:\FR\FM\04APN1.SGM

14490
Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 65 / Wednesday, April 4, 2018 / Notices
led by a University of Wisconsin (UW),
Madison, Department of Anthropology
faculty member, David Baerreis. Dr.
Baerreis’ crew surveyed several sites as
part of their project and then chose
three to excavate. While 39WW0001
was not chosen for excavation, it is
likely that the collections were made
during the survey. The collections were
stored at the University of Wisconsin
(UW), Madison. In 2010, the U.S. Corps
of Engineers contracted with UW,
Madison, to rehabilitate Baerreis’
collection. During this project, human
remains were found in the collection,
and in 2015, the human remains were
transferred from UW, Madison, to
SARC. The human remains are a single
adult human humerus. No known
individual was identified. No associated
funerary objects are present.
Site 39WW0001, Mobridge Village
Site, is an earthlodge village site on the
east shore of Lake Oahe near the city of
Mobridge. The first excavations at the
site occurred in 1917, at which time it
was described as an Arikara village.
Further studies described the village as
belonging to the Post-Contact Coalescent
tradition. Materials that were collected
from the site, including lithic debris,
modified bone, and ceramic rimsherds,
are consistent with the Post-Contact
Coalescent tradition. Based on the site
context, the human remains are
determined to be Native American. The
Post-Contact Coalescent tradition is
believed to be affiliated with the
Arikara. The Arikara are represented
today by the Three Affiliated Tribes of
the Fort Berthold Reservation, North
Dakota.
