middle-aged male, three young adult
males, two middle-aged females, three
young-middle adult females, one young
adult female, one female 17 to 18 years
old, and one child 11 to 12 years old
(Burial Project 3362). No known
individuals were identified. The 101
associated funerary objects are eight
beads, 17 buttons, six fabric scraps, 10
fragments of a bone object, three leather
belts (partial), four shoe soles/fragments,
one lead bullet, two coffin handles (one
partial), one coffin lace, one coffin
plaque fragment, 26 square cut nails,
two screws, 14 fragments of coffin
wood, one iron brace, one iron bracket,
and four ceramic sherds.
Based on the presence of square cut
nails, the site is roughly dated to A.D.
1800–1900. Graves with Prosser buttons
post-date 1840, while the burial with
the mass-produced coffin handle likely
dates between 1860 and 1880. A
European-tradition burial position
(supine and extended) in wooden
coffins and the mix of ancestry apparent
from osteological analysis lend support
to the identification of this site as the
burial ground of a small French and
Native American community mentioned
in a county history as having emerged
in the 1850s. Not all individuals
excavated from this cemetery were
identified as Native American. Four
individuals were identified as Native
American through facial morphology
and cranial metrics. Two individuals, a
young adult male and female, were
determined to have African American
ancestry, possibly with Native American
admixture, based on cranial metrics and
dental morphology. Two individuals, a
young adult male and the 11- to 12-yearold child, were determined to be
Euroamerican based on facial and dental
morphology. Ancestry could not be
determined osteologically for the four
individuals whose crania were not
present, however, after discussion with
tribal representatives, they are
considered to be Native American. The
Past and Present of Woodbury County
(Constant R. Marks, 1904) does not
specify the tribal affiliation of all the
individuals living in the area, but one
household included a daughter of War
Eagle, and the Sioux and Dakota are
mentioned.
Determinations Made by the Office of
the State Archaeologist Bioarchaeology
Program
Officials of the Office of the State
Archaeologist Bioarchaeology Program
have determined that:
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the

individuals of Native American
ancestry.
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(A),
the 101 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 Tribes.
Additional Requestors and Disposition
Lineal descendants or 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

History and Description of the Remains
In 1933–1934 human remains
representing, at minimum, one
individual were removed from AZ
Q:1:23 in Navajo County, AZ, during
legally authorized activities to restore
the site architecture and interpret the
site for visitors. The human remains are
in the physical custody of the Museum
of Northern Arizona, Flagstaff, AZ. No
known individuals were identified. No
associated funerary objects are present.
In 1953, human remains representing,
at minimum, six individuals were
removed from AZ Q:1:3 in Apache
County, AZ, by Fred Wendorf as part of
his doctoral research at Harvard
University. The human remains and
associated funerary objects are in the
physical custody of the Museum of
Northern Arizona (MNA) in Flagstaff,
AZ. No known individuals were
identified. The 2,201 associated
funerary objects are 13 pottery bowls,
one mineral (galena), six pottery jars
(some fragmentary), 2,083 shell beads,
one stone pendant, two stone scrapers,
one shell pendant, 25 basket fragments,
one blanket, and 68 pottery sherds.
In 1967, human remains representing,
at minimum, three individuals were
removed from AZ Q:1:22 in Apache
County, AZ, during legally authorized
excavations conducted by Calvin
Jennings of the Museum of Northern
Arizona. The human remains are in the
physical custody of the Museum of
Northern Arizona, Flagstaff, AZ. No
known individuals were identified. No
associated funerary objects are present.
In 1968, human remains representing,
at minimum, one individual were
removed from AZ Q:1:3 in Apache
County, AZ, by the Chief Naturalist at
Petrified Forest National Park during
regular site monitoring. The human
remains are in the physical custody of
the Museum of Northern Arizona,
Flagstaff, AZ. No known individuals
were identified. No associated funerary
objects are present.
In 1985, human remains representing,
at minimum, one individual were
removed from AZ Q:1:58 in Apache
County, AZ, during legally authorized
excavations. No known individuals
were identified. The two associated
funerary objects are one pottery bowl
and one charcoal sample.
In 1988, human remains representing,
at minimum, two individuals were
removed from AZ Q:1:226 in Navajo
County, AZ, during legally authorized

archeological survey and site
recordation. No known individuals were
identified. The 11 associated funerary
objects are two pottery bowls, three
pottery jars, and six shell beads.
Archeological site context and types
of funerary objects suggest that all five
sites were occupied by ancestral
Puebloan peoples. Ethnographic and
archeological evidence, including burial
orientation, body position, and the type
and placement of the associated
funerary objects, indicates that the
mortuary practices of these ancestral
Puebloan peoples correspond closely
with those of the Hopi Tribe of Arizona
and the Zuni Tribe of the Zuni
Reservation, New Mexico.
Determinations Made by Petrified
Forest National Park
Officials of Petrified Forest National
Park have determined that:
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the
human remains described in this notice
represent the physical remains of 14
individuals of Native American
ancestry.
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(A),
the 2,214 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 Hopi Tribe of Arizona and the
Zuni Tribe of the Zuni Reservation, New
Mexico.
Additional Requestors and Disposition
Lineal descendants or 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 objects should submit a written
request with information in support of
the request to Brad Traver,

SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service,
Petrified Forest National Park has completed an inventory of human
remains and associated funerary objects, in consultation with the
appropriate Indian Tribes or Native Hawaiian organizations, and has
determined that there is a cultural affiliation between the human
remains and associated funerary objects and present-day Indian Tribes
or Native Hawaiian organizations. Lineal descendants or 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 objects should submit a written request
to Petrified Forest National Park. If no additional requestors come
forward, transfer of control of the human remains and associated
funerary objects to the lineal descendants, Indian Tribes, or Native
Hawaiian organizations stated in this notice may proceed.
DATES: Lineal descendants or 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

authorized activities to restore the site architecture and interpret
the site for visitors. The human remains are in the physical custody of
the Museum of Northern Arizona, Flagstaff, AZ. No known individuals
were identified. No associated funerary objects are present.
In 1953, human remains representing, at minimum, six individuals
were removed from AZ Q:1:3 in Apache County, AZ, by Fred Wendorf as
part of his doctoral research at Harvard University. The human remains
and associated funerary objects are in the physical custody of the
Museum of Northern Arizona (MNA) in Flagstaff, AZ. No known individuals
were identified. The 2,201 associated funerary objects are 13 pottery
bowls, one mineral (galena), six pottery jars (some fragmentary), 2,083
shell beads, one stone pendant, two stone scrapers, one shell pendant,
25 basket fragments, one blanket, and 68 pottery sherds.
In 1967, human remains representing, at minimum, three individuals
were removed from AZ Q:1:22 in Apache County, AZ, during legally
authorized excavations conducted by Calvin Jennings of the Museum of
Northern Arizona. The human remains are in the physical custody of the
Museum of Northern Arizona, Flagstaff, AZ. No known individuals were
identified. No associated funerary objects are present.
In 1968, human remains representing, at minimum, one individual
were removed from AZ Q:1:3 in Apache County, AZ, by the Chief
Naturalist at Petrified Forest National Park during regular site
monitoring. The human remains are in the physical custody of the Museum
of Northern Arizona, Flagstaff, AZ. No known individuals were
identified. No associated funerary objects are present.
In 1985, human remains representing, at minimum, one individual
were removed from AZ Q:1:58 in Apache County, AZ, during legally
authorized excavations. No known individuals were identified. The two
associated funerary objects are one pottery bowl and one charcoal
sample.
In 1988, human remains representing, at minimum, two individuals
were removed from AZ Q:1:226 in Navajo County, AZ, during legally
authorized archeological survey and site recordation. No known
individuals were identified. The 11 associated funerary objects are two
pottery bowls, three pottery jars, and six shell beads.
Archeological site context and types of funerary objects suggest
that all five sites were occupied by ancestral Puebloan peoples.
Ethnographic and archeological evidence, including burial orientation,
body position, and the type and placement of the associated funerary
objects, indicates that the mortuary practices of these ancestral
Puebloan peoples correspond closely with those of the Hopi Tribe of
Arizona and the Zuni Tribe of the Zuni Reservation, New Mexico.
