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 and associated
funerary objects under the control of the
U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau
of Land Management, Idaho State
Office, Boise, ID and housed at the
Idaho Museum of Natural History, Earl
H. Swanson Archaeological Repository,
SUMMARY:
PO 00000

Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
Idaho State University, Pocatello, ID
(IMNH). The human remains and
associated funerary objects were
removed from Hanging Valley Cave
(10JE5), Jerome County, ID, on land
administered by the BLM.
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 the BLM and
IMNH professional staff in consultation
with representatives of the ShoshoneBannock Tribes of the Fort Hall
Reservation and the Shoshone-Paiute
Tribes of the Duck Valley Reservation,
Nevada.
History and Description of the Remains
At an unknown date, human remains
representing, at minimum, one
individual were removed from a crevice
in Hanging Valley Cave (10JE5) in
Jerome County, ID, by Gene Titmus of
Twin Falls, ID. In 1962, Mr. Titmus
turned over the human remains to
IMNH. Forensics analysis of the two
parietal cranial bones conducted by
IMNH concluded the human remains
were from one middle aged individual
based on ‘‘obliteration of the sagittal
sutures.’’ Burning on the human
remains suggests they were cremated.
No known individuals were identified.
The seven associated funerary objects
are six Rose Spring/Eastgate corner
notched projectile points and one basal
fragment.
Based on projectile point typology
and chronologies for southern Idaho, the
site can be dated to the Late Period,
with a date range from A.D. 300 to 1850.
As evidenced by the geographic location
(Jerome County, ID), chronology of the
site, archeological, ethnographic, oral
history and historic evidence, the
human remains and associated funerary
objects are determined to be culturally
affiliated to the Uto Aztecan speaking
Bannock, Northern Shoshone and
Northern Paiute tribes who inhabited
the region during the period of use and
today. The burial site is within the
territory of the Northwestern Band of
Shoshone Nation, the ShoshoneBannock Tribes of the Fort Hall
Reservation, Idaho, and the ShoshonePaiute Tribes of the Duck Valley
Reservation, Nevada. In consultation
with the tribes, and as supported in

Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 220 / Wednesday, November 14, 2018 / Notices
ethnographies, the seven projectile
points determined to be associated
funerary objects are the types of objects
interred with burials.
Determinations Made by the Bureau of
Land Management, Idaho State Office
Officials of the Bureau of Land
Management, Idaho State Office 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(3)(A),
the seven objects described in this
notice are 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), there
is a relationship of shared group
identity that can be reasonably traced
between the Native American human
remains and associated funerary objects
and the Northwestern Band of Shoshone
Nation (previously listed as
Northwestern Band of Shoshoni Nation
and the Northwestern Band of Shoshoni
Nation (Washakie)); Shoshone-Bannock
Tribes of the Fort Hall Reservation; and
the Shoshone-Paiute Tribes of the Duck
Valley Reservation, Nevada.

Lineal descendants or representatives
of any Indian Tribe or Native Hawaiian
organization not identified in this notice
