History and Description of the Remains
Sometime prior to 2000, human
remains representing, at minimum, two
individuals were removed from the
Aleutian Islands, AK. On December 12,
2002, Rose A. Tyson donated them to
the University of San Diego
Anthropology Department as part of a
larger donation of human and nonhuman remains assembled by Dr.
Spencer L. Rogers. Dr. Rogers, a
physical anthropologist, worked at San
Diego State University, where he began
to assemble the collection. He acquired
human and non-remain remains from
various sources, including biological
supply houses, students, donors, and
archeological expeditions (primarily in
the Southwestern U.S.). Dr. Rogers
brought the collection with him to the
San Diego Museum of Man (now the
Museum of Us), where he served as the
Scientific Director and Ms. Tyson’s
supervisor. Dr. Rogers gave his
collection to Ms. Tyson before he died
in 2000.
One individual, an adult male, is
represented by a cranium (no mandible).
He has Unangan (aka Aleut) and
Scandinavian features; well-developed
brow ridges are a common Unangan
feature after the arrival of the Russians
in 1760. The second individual, likely
an adult female, has Unangan features;
the size of the temporalis and masseter
musculature are consistent with
Unangan ancestry. The green staining
around both of her ears suggests the
presence of copper earrings. Such
earrings, together with the lighter
coloration of the bone, would indicate
that she was alive after 1760. No known
individuals were identified. No
associated funerary objects are present.
Determinations Made by the University
of San Diego
Officials of the University of San
Diego have determined that:
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the
human remains described in this notice
represent the physical remains of two
E:\FR\FM\17AUN1.SGM
17AUN1
Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 156 / Tuesday, August 17, 2021 / Notices
individuals of Native American
ancestry.
• 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 the Agdaagux Tribe of King
Cove; Native Village of Akutan; Native
Village of Atka; Native Village of
Belkofski; Native Village of Unga;
Pauloff Harbor Village; Pribilof Islands
Aleut Communities of St. Paul & St.
George Islands (Sain George Island and
Saint Paul Island); Qagan Tayagungin
Tribe of Sand Point [previously listed as
Qagan Tayagungin Tribe of Sand Point
Village]; and the Qawalangin Tribe of
Unalaska (hereafter referred to as ‘‘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 should submit
a written request with information in
support of the request to Derrick
Cartwright, University of San Diego,
5998 Alcala Park, San Diego, CA 92110,
telephone (619) 260–7632, email
dcartwright@sandiego.edu, by
September 16, 2021. After that date, if
no additional requestors have come
forward, transfer of control of the
human remains to The Tribes may
proceed.
The University of San Diego is
responsible for notifying The Consulted
and Invited Tribes that this notice has
been published.

of human remains under the control of

History and Description of the Remains
During Phase III Data Recovery
fieldwork in the Winter of 1994–1995,
human remains representing, at
minimum, one individual were removed
from the Mount Hope Site (1La601) in
Lawrence County, AL. Given difficult
field conditions and the fragmentary
nature of the human remains, accurate
identification of the remains occurred
only during subsequent laboratory work
conducted at the University of Alabama
Laboratory of Human Osteology. Based
on the size and general features of the
cranial fragments, the remains were
determined to belong to a single adult
who had been cremated. Given the
fragmentary nature of the human
remains and lack of identifying
landmarks, specific age, sex, pathology,
or trauma could not be determined. A
total of 83 fragments was identified, 23
cranial and 60 post cranial.
Recognizable cranial fragments include
two frontal, two parietal, two mandible,
and six temporal fragments. Limited
evidence suggests that the post cranial
fragments could be from upper limb
bones. No known individual was
identified. No associated funerary
objects are present.
Determinations Made by the Alabama
Department of Transportation
Officials of the Alabama Department
of Transportation have determined that:
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the
human remains described in this notice
are Native American, based on their
cremated state and their recovery from
a Pre-European Contact archeological
site containing Paleoindian, Early
Archaic, Middle Archaic, Late Archaic,
and Woodland components. Given the
depth of recovery, the human remains
are to be associated with the most
intensive period of site usage, which has
been radiocarbon dated to around 7240
years B.P.
• 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(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 Tribes.
• Treaties, Acts of Congress, or
Executive Orders, indicate that the land

History and Description of the Remains
Sometime prior to 2000, human remains representing, at minimum, two
individuals were removed from the Aleutian Islands, AK. On December 12,
2002, Rose A. Tyson donated them to the University of San Diego
Anthropology Department as part of a larger donation of human and non-
human remains assembled by Dr. Spencer L. Rogers. Dr. Rogers, a
physical anthropologist, worked at San Diego State University, where he
began to assemble the collection. He acquired human and non-remain
remains from various sources, including biological supply houses,
students, donors, and archeological expeditions (primarily in the
Southwestern U.S.). Dr. Rogers brought the collection with him to the
San Diego Museum of Man (now the Museum of Us), where he served as the
Scientific Director and Ms. Tyson's supervisor. Dr. Rogers gave his
collection to Ms. Tyson before he died in 2000.
One individual, an adult male, is represented by a cranium (no
mandible). He has Unangan (aka Aleut) and Scandinavian features; well-
developed brow ridges are a common Unangan feature after the arrival of
the Russians in 1760. The second individual, likely an adult female,
has Unangan features; the size of the temporalis and masseter
musculature are consistent with Unangan ancestry. The green staining
around both of her ears suggests the presence of copper earrings. Such
earrings, together with the lighter coloration of the bone, would
indicate that she was alive after 1760. No known individuals were
identified. No associated funerary objects are present.
Determinations Made by the University of San Diego
Officials of the University of San Diego have determined that:
Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the human remains described
in this notice represent the physical remains of two
[[Page 46007]]
individuals of Native American ancestry.
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 the Agdaagux Tribe of King Cove; Native
Village of Akutan; Native Village of Atka; Native Village of Belkofski;
Native Village of Unga; Pauloff Harbor Village; Pribilof Islands Aleut
Communities of St. Paul & St. George Islands (Sain George Island and
Saint Paul Island); Qagan Tayagungin Tribe of Sand Point [previously
listed as Qagan Tayagungin Tribe of Sand Point Village]; and the
Qawalangin Tribe of Unalaska (hereafter referred to as ``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 should submit a
written request with information in support of the request to Derrick
Cartwright, University of San Diego, 5998 Alcala Park, San Diego, CA
92110, telephone (619) 260-7632, email [email protected], by
September 16, 2021. After that date, if no additional requestors have
come forward, transfer of control of the human remains to The Tribes
may proceed.
The University of San Diego is responsible for notifying The
Consulted and Invited Tribes that this notice has been published.
Dated: August 4, 2021.
