Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), 25 
U.S.C. 3003, of the completion of an inventory of human remains and 
associated funerary objects under the control of Princeton University, 
Princeton, NJ. The human remains and associated funerary objects were 
removed 30 miles north of Nogales, Santa Cruz County, AZ.
    This notice is published as part of the National Park Service's 
administrative responsibilities under NAGPRA, 25 U.S.C. 3003(d)(3) and 
43 CFR 10.11(d). 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 and associated funerary 
objects. The National Park Service is not responsible for the 
determinations in this notice.

Consultation

    A detailed assessment of the human remains was made by Princeton 
University professional staff in consultation with representatives of 
the Ak-Chin Indian Community (previously listed as the Ak Chin Indian 
Community of the Maricopa (Ak Chin) Indian Reservation, Arizona); Gila 
River Indian Community of the Gila River Indian Reservation, Arizona; 
Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community of the Salt River 
Reservation, Arizona; San Carlos Apache Tribe of the San Carlos 
Reservation, Arizona; Tohono O'odham Nation of Arizona; Tonto Apache 
Tribe of Arizona; White Mountain Apache Tribe of the Fort Apache 
Reservation, Arizona; and the Yavapai-Apache Nation of the Camp Verde 
Indian Reservation, Arizona, hereafter referred to as ``The Tribes.''

History and Description of the Remains

    At an unknown date, human remains representing, at minimum, one 
individual were removed from an unknown site about 30 miles north of 
Nogales, Pima (now Santa Cruz) County, AZ. The human remains are 
cremated and in fragmentary form. They were found with a wooden cross 
placed on top, suggesting the burial took place after the Spanish 
Invasion. The human remains were unearthed along with six other ollas 
of varied shapes, whose present whereabouts are unknown. The human 
remains were donated to Princeton University by John I. Ginn in 1892. 
No known individuals were identified. The one associated funerary 
object is a ``cremation'' olla.

Determinations Made by Princeton University

    Officials of Princeton University have determined that:
     Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the human remains described 
in this notice are Native American based on the nature of the burial as 
a cremation in a ceramic jar.
     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), the one object described 
in this notice is 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), a relationship of shared 
group identity

[[Page 52536]]

cannot be reasonably traced between the Native American human remains 
and associated funerary object and any present-day Indian Tribe.
     According to final judgments of the Indian Claims 
Commission or the Court of Federal Claims, the land from which the 
Native American human remains and associated funerary objects were 
removed is the aboriginal land of the Tohono O'odham Nation of Arizona.
     Treaties, Acts of Congress, or Executive Orders, indicate 
that the land from which the Native American human remains and 
associated funerary objects were removed is the aboriginal land of The 
Tribes.
     Pursuant to 43 CFR 10.11(c)(1), the disposition of the 
human remains and associated funerary object may be to The Tribes.

Additional Requestors and Disposition

    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 and associated funerary object should submit a 
written request with information in support of the request to Bryan R. 
Just, Princeton University Art Museum, Princeton, NJ 08544, telephone 
(609) 258-8805, email [email protected], by November 16, 2018. After 
that date, if no additional requestors have come forward, transfer of 
control of the human remains and associated funerary object to The 
Tribes may proceed.
    Princeton University is responsible for notifying The Tribes that 
this notice has been published.
