Consultation
A detailed assessment of the human

State Office of Parks, Recreation, and
Historic Preservation professional staff
in consultation with representatives of
the Cayuga Nation; Seneca Nation of
Indians [previously listed as Seneca
Nation of New York]; Seneca-Cayuga

County, NY. The human remains were
excavated by William M. Locke and
acquired by William Pryor Letchworth.
The Letchworth collection was included
in the gift of the Glen Iris Estate to New

include a skull belonging to an adult of
unknown sex (LE.2010.7) and partial
cranium vault fragments belonging to an
adult of unknown sex (LE.2010.8). No
known individuals were identified. No

osteological assessment, the human
remains predate A.D. 1400 and are
connected to earlier Owasco/Seneca.
The provenience of the human remains
is consistent with the historically
documented territory of the Seneca.
Consultation has further established the
cultural affiliation of these human
remains with the Seneca Nation of
Indians [previously listed as Seneca
Nation of New York] and the
Tonawanda Band of Seneca [previously
listed as Tonawanda Band of Seneca
Indians of New York].
In the late nineteenth century, human
remains representing, at minimum, one
individual were removed from the Ball
Farm/Totiakton Site, Monroe County,
NY. The human remains were excavated
by William M. Locke and acquired by
William Pryor Letchworth. The
Letchworth collection was included in
the gift of the Glen Iris Estate to New
York State in 1907. The human remains
include the mandible, teeth, and cranial
fragments belonging to a sub-adult aged
6–12 of unknown sex. No known
individual was identified. No associated
funerary objects are present.
Based on the known context of
recovery and a 2002 archaeological and
osteological assessment, the human
remains date to ca. A.D. 1669–1687 and
are connected to the earlier Seneca. Ca.
A.D. 1669–1687, Totiakton was a Seneca
village located along Honeoye Creek in
the Town of Mendon, Monroe County,
NY. The provenience of the human
remains is consistent with the
historically documented territory of the
Seneca. Consultation has further
established the cultural affiliation of
these human remains with the Seneca
Nation of Indians [previously listed as
Seneca Nation of New York] and the
Tonawanda Band of Seneca [previously
listed as Tonawanda Band of Seneca
Indians of New York].
Determinations Made by the New York

of Parks, Recreation, and Historic
Preservation have determined that:
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the

represent the physical remains of three

ancestry.
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(2), there

identity that can be reasonably traced
between the Native American human
remains and the Seneca Nation of
Indians [previously listed as Seneca
Nation of New York] and the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Consultation
A detailed assessment of the human
remains was made by the John Michael
Kohler Arts Center professional staff in
consultation with representatives of the
Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska.
History and Description of the Remains
In the early 1990s, human remains
representing at minimum, two
individuals were removed from native
burial sites in what is now Sheboygan,
Sheboygan County, WI, by Rudolph
Kuehne. After his death, in the late
1920s, Kuehne’s widow sold the
Kuehne collection—the remains of the
two individuals and 5,816 objects—to
the Kohler Foundation. The collection
was packed away and not studied until
1968, when it was examined by John
Michael Kohler Arts Center staff while
preparing an exhibit, at which time the
human remains described in this notice
were discovered. The human remains
belong to two individuals of
unidentified age and sex. No known
individuals were identified. A Notice of
Intent to Repatriate Cultural Items for
the 5,816 objects was published in the
Federal Register on June 10, 2020 (85
FR 35438, June 10, 2020).
