wedge; one blade; one modified bone;
one non-human bone fragment; one
unidentified lithic; three projectile
points; one camas bulb; and one lot of
bagged flakes, glass, shell, ecofacts,
lithics, and unidentified botanical
remains.
Ethnographic records indicate that
Oceanside, located on the sand spit that
defines the southern edge of Tillamook
Bay, was occupied by the Tillamook.

linguistic, kinship, oral historical and
historical evidence, a relationship of
shared group identity between the
Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians of
Oregon (previously listed as the
Confederated Tribes of the Siletz
Reservation) and the Tillamook at
Oceanside can be reasonably traced
historically. Based on geographical,
ethnographic, linguistic and historical

identity between the Confederated
Tribes of the Grand Ronde Community
of Oregon and the Tillamook at
Oceanside also can be reasonably traced
historically.

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 cultural items. The National
Park Service is not responsible for the
determinations in this notice.
History and Description of the Cultural
Item
In the late nineteenth century, one
cultural item was acquired by the New
York State Museum through Harriet
Maxwell Converse (E–37417). The one
cultural item is a wampum belt known
as the Ransom wampum belt. It is
composed of six rows of purple beads
interspersed with white beads forming
five diagonal bands and two white open
hexagons. The wampum belt is strung
on leather warps with thread wefts and
mounted on linen backing. The
wampum belt measures 243⁄4 inches
long and 13⁄4 inches wide.
Museum records indicate Converse
identified the Ransom wampum belt as
‘‘Onondaga.’’ She reported that this
wampum belt was used by women as
ransom to spare the life of a prisoner. As
such, the Ransom wampum belt
symbolizes the role of women in the
adoption of captives.
The records of the New York State
Museum establish the cultural
affiliation of this wampum belt with the
Haudenosaunee Confederacy, and
specifically with the Onondaga Nation.
Based on consultation with the
Onondaga Nation, the Ransom wampum
belt is an object of cultural patrimony,
as it relates to the civil functions of a
Council.
Determinations Made by the New York
State Museum
Officials of the New York State
Museum have determined that:
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(D),
the one cultural item described above
has ongoing historical, traditional, or
cultural importance central to the
Native American group or culture itself,
rather than property owned by an
individual.
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(2), there
is a relationship of shared group
identity that can be reasonably traced
between the object of cultural patrimony
and the Onondaga Nation.
Additional Requestors and Disposition
Lineal descendants or representatives
of any Indian Tribe or Native Hawaiian
organization not identified in this notice
that wish to claim this cultural item
should submit a written request with
