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 under the control of
the Federal Bureau of Investigation,
Washington, DC. The human remains
were removed from the northern New
Mexico and Arizona border.
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. The National Park Service is
not responsible for the determinations
in this notice.
Jkt 250001
A detailed assessment of the human
remains was made by the FBI in
consultation with the Fort Sill Apache
Tribe of Oklahoma; Gila River Indian
Community of the Gila River Indian
Reservation, Arizona; Hopi Tribe of
Arizona; Mescalero Apache Tribe of the
Mescalero Reservation, New Mexico;
Pueblo of Acoma, New Mexico; Pueblo
of Jemez, New Mexico; Pueblo of
Laguna, New Mexico; Pueblo of Picuris,
New Mexico; and the Salt River PimaMaricopa Indian Community of the Salt
River Reservation, Arizona (hereafter
referred to as ‘‘The Consulted Tribes’’).
History and Description of the Remains
In 2008, human remains representing,
at minimum, 10 individuals were
removed from somewhere on the
northern New Mexico and Arizona
border. The human remains were later
PO 00000
Frm 00080
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

transported to Indiana, where they
remained part of a private collection of
Native American antiquities and
cultural heritage. In April 2014, the
human remains were seized by the FBI
as part of a criminal investigation. The
human remains represent one young
adult female, three young-to-middle age
adult females, three middle-to-old age
adult females, two middle-to-old age
adult males, and one individual of
unknown age and sex. No known
individuals were identified. No
associated funerary objects are present.
In May 2017, the FBI consulted with
all the Indian Tribes who are recognized
as aboriginal to the border region of
northwest New Mexico and northeast
Arizona. At this consultation, the Hopi
Tribe of Arizona agreed to accept
control of the human remains on behalf
of all The Consulted Tribes. The
Consulted Tribes concurred.
Oral traditions and archeological site
analyses indicate that several
populations of Ancestral Puebloan
peoples inhabited this region of the New
Mexico and Arizona border. Ancestral
Puebloan peoples are considered to be
the ancestors of contemporary Pueblo
peoples, including the Hopi Tribe of
Arizona.
Determinations Made by the Federal
Bureau of Investigation
Officials of the Federal Bureau of
Investigation have determined that:
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the
human remains described in this notice
are Native American, based on
consultation information and noninvasive/non-destructive skeletal
analysis.
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the
human remains described in this notice
represent the physical remains of 10
individuals of Native American
ancestry.
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(2), a
relationship of shared group identity
cannot be reasonably traced between the
Native American human remains 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
were removed is the aboriginal land of
The Consulted Tribes.
• Treaties, Acts of Congress, or
Executive Orders, indicate that the land
from which the Native American human
remains were removed is the aboriginal
land of The Consulted Tribes.
• Pursuant to 43 CFR 10.11(c)(1), the
disposition of the human remains may
be to The Consulted Tribes.

Consultation
A detailed assessment of the human
remains was made by UTK professional
staff in consultation with
representatives of the Three Affiliated
Tribes of the Fort Berthold Reservation,
North Dakota.
History and Description of the Remains
In the summer of 1960, human
remains representing, at minimum, two
individuals were removed from
32MO11, the Huff site, in Morton
County, ND. The excavation was
directed by W. Raymond Wood under a
grant from the State Historical Society of
North Dakota and the National Park
Service (NPS). Post-excavation, Wood
transferred the human skeletal remains
to the State Historical Society of North
Dakota. In October 1960, Wood had
Norman Paulson transfer the human
skeletal remains to William Bass at the
University of Kansas. In 1971, when
Bass moved from Kansas to the
University of Tennessee, Knoxville
(UTK), he took at least two skeletal
PO 00000

individuals from the Huff site, 32MO11,
with him. The individual in Burial 1 is
a female, 45 to 50 years old. The
individual in Burial 3 is a female, 45 to
50 years old. (A third individual, in
Burial 2, was not found at UTK during
the 2017–2019 final inventory and
documentation search, and it is unclear
whether the State Historical Society of
North Dakota ever transferred the
human remains of that individual). No
known individuals were identified. No
associated funerary objects are present.
The Huff site, 32MO11, is considered
to be a relatively short-term fortified site
occupied during the Terminal Middle
Missouri period. Radiocarbon dating,
with a 2-sigma probability range, dates
the site between A.D. 1431 and 1496
(Johnson 2007:73). The Huff site is
located about 19 miles south of the town
of Mandan. The Terminal Middle
Missouri Period, together with the
earlier Extended Middle Missouri
Period and the later Heart River phase,
are ‘‘thought to represent an unbroken
Mandan cultural continuum from the
historically documented villages in the
Heart region back to about AD 1000’’
(Johnson 2007:109). Today, the Mandan
are part of the Mandan, Hidatsa and
Arikara Nation, known as the Three
Affiliated Tribes of the Fort Berthold
Reservation, North Dakota.
Between 1957 and 1959, human
remains representing, at minimum, 41
individuals were removed from 39CA4,
the Anton Rygh site, in Campbell
County, SD, under the direction of
Alfred W. Bowers as part of the
Missouri River Basin Project. Postexcavation, Bowers transferred these
human skeletal remains to the
University of Idaho, Moscow. In January
1974, the Chairman of the Sociology/
Anthropology Department of the
University of Idaho, Moscow, Roderick
Sprague, transferred the human skeletal
remains to William Bass at UTK. The
human skeletal remains belong to nine
infants and eight children of
indeterminate sex, four adolescents, and
20 adults. Three of the adolescent
individuals are of indeterminate sex,
and one is probably male. Of the adults,
six are probably male, 10 probably
female, and four are of indeterminate
sex. No known individuals were
identified. No associated funerary
objects are present.
Site 39CA4 is a large, multicomponent earth lodge village, part of
the Plains Village Tradition. It is a
fortified village site covering around 11–
12 acres, and at least two occupations
are suggested by the archeological
evidence. The first occupation dates to
the Extended Middle Missouri period
(A.D 1000–1500), while the second
