SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is

of human remains under the control of

The human remains were removed from
Yankton, Yankton County, 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

Consultation
A detailed assessment of the human
remains was made by the Berkshire
Museum professional staff in
consultation with Ann Marie Mires of
the Department of Anthropology at the
University of Massachusetts, Amherst,
MA. Several attempts were made to
contact the Yankton Sioux Tribe of
South Dakota’s NAGPRA representative
by telephone in mid-November of 1995.
Also, a letter with the inventory and
osteological analysis was sent to the
tribe by mail on November 16, 1995.
There was no response to the letter by
the Yankton Sioux Tribe of South
Dakota at that time.

History and Description of the Remains
At an unknown date, human remains
representing, at minimum, one
individuals were removed from ‘‘a
mound’’ in South Dakota. A typed note
stored with the skull states ‘‘Skull.
Found by Rev. Edward R. Bradley,
Lincoln Mass. Found in a mound in
open prairie. The top of the mound was
flat and twenty feet across. They were
digging a cellar for a house and found
other bones besides, Presented by P.
Bradley.’’ Handwritten in pencil on the
note ‘‘S. Dakota Yankton.’’ Marked in
ink on the right and left parietal section
of the skull is ‘‘48286 S. Dak,’’ and
marked in ink on the frontal section of
the skull is ‘‘48286 S.D.’’ No known
individuals were identified.
The age and exact location of the site
is unknown, based on available records.
No accession record or documentation
of donation to the Berkshire Museum
has been found. Osteological
examination was performed by Ann
Marie Mires of the Department of
Anthropology at the University of
Massachusetts, Amherst, MA, and a
completed report was submitted to the
Berkshire Museum on November 9,
1995. Based on the examination Ms.
Mires was able to determine that the
skull probably belonged to a female
individual between 30 and 50 years of
age. Biological affinity was determined
‘‘Native American or Mongoloid’’ due to
a ‘‘series of morphological and metric
characteristics.’’ These measurements
were deemed tentative ‘‘due to the
fragmentary nature of the remains,’’ and
might suggest ‘‘a mixed racial ancestry
for this individual, combing Caucasian
and Mongoloid descent.’’
Determinations Made by the Berkshire
Museum
Officials of the Berkshire Museum
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(2), there
is a relationship of shared group
identity that can be reasonably traced
between the Native American human
remains and the Yankton Sioux Tribe of
South Dakota.
Pittsfield, MA 01201, telephone (413)

After that date, if no additional

of control of the human remains to the
