The question presented was whether the present-day Muskogeanspeaking Indian Tribes are culturally affiliated with the human remains and funerary objects excavated at, and adjacent to, the Moundville archeological site (1TU500), in Tuscaloosa County, AL. The Review Committee considered the relevant information submitted by the requestors, which included the following types of evidence: Linguistic, oral tradition, geographical, kinship, biological, archeological, historical, and anthropological. During discussion, members of the Review Committee noted that the requestors had asked for a finding based upon a preponderance of the evidence and asked whether a finding of cultural affiliation by a preponderance of the evidence would differ from a finding by a reasonable basis. In response, attorneys from the Department’s Office of the Solicitor stated that, in practice, preponderance of the evidence and reasonable basis are similar standards for determining whether the evidence leans slightly more one way than the other. The Review Committee noted several times that the University of Alabama did not have an opportunity to present information on this matter to the Review Committee. One member stated that the preponderance of the evidence means a weighing between two sides, and since the Review Committee had heard the tribal case but not the museum’s case the reasonable basis standard was appropriate. Finding of Fact All six currently appointed Review Committee members participated in the fact finding. By a vote of five in favor and one abstention, the Review Committee found that, based on the evidence before it, there is a preponderance of the evidence for cultural affiliation between the human remains and funerary objects originating from, and adjacent to, the Moundville archeological site (1Tu500) and the present-day Muskogean-speaking Indian Tribes. The abstaining member requested, and the other members agreed, that a statement be appended to the finding. This statement is that the one abstaining member of the Review Committee found that, based on the evidence before the Review Committee, there is a reasonable basis for cultural affiliation between the human remains VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:19 Jan 31, 2022 Jkt 256001 and funerary objects originating from, or adjacent to, the Moundville archeological site (1Tu500) and the present-day Muskogean-speaking Indian Tribes.

Peabody Institute of Archaeology, Phillips Academy, 180 Main Street, Andover, MA 01810, telephone (978) 749–4490, email rwheeler@andover.edu. 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 and associated funerary objects under the control of the Robert S. Peabody Institute of Archaeology, Phillips Academy, Andover, MA. The human remains and associated funerary objects were removed from eight sites in Cumberland, Hancock, and Washington Counties, ME. 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 human remains and associated funerary objects. The National Park Service is not responsible for the determinations in this notice. Consultation A detailed assessment of the human remains was made by the Robert S. Peabody Institute of Archaeology professional staff in consultation with PO 00000 Frm 00047 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 5501 representatives of the Aroostook Band of Micmacs [previously listed as Aroostook Band of Micmac Indians]; Houlton Band of Maliseet Indians; Passamaquoddy Tribe; and the Penobscot Nation [previously listed as Penobscot Tribe of Maine] (hereafter referred to as ‘‘The Consulted Tribes’’). History and Description of the Remains In 1915, human remains representing, at minimum, one individual were removed from Wolfe’s Neck (014.101) in Cumberland County, ME, by Warren K. Moorehead. During an inventory project at the Robert S. Peabody Institute in 2019, the remains were identified (and confirmed by a physical anthropologist) as Native American human remains. Moorehead had identified the site as Me 171/7. In 1968, Dean Snow assigned it number 014.101. Snow’s record noted that ancestral human remains had been found at the site by Dr. Jos E. Porter of Maine General Hospital, in Portland, and that those human remains were subsequently transferred to the Anthropology Department at Harvard University on August 10, 1953. The human remains at the Peabody Institute likely originated from one of the eroding shell middens in the area, which would date them sometime between 2,800 years ago and the arrival of colonial settlers. No known individual was identified. The 36 associated funerary objects are 29 ceramic sherds and seven faunal bone fragments. In 1913, human remains representing, at minimum, one individual were removed from Boynton’s Shellheap (043.004) in Hancock County, ME, by Warren K. Moorehead and Charles Peabody under the auspices of the Department of Archaeology at Phillips Academy (now the Robert S. Peabody Institute of Archaeology). During a recent inventory project, the remains were identified as Native American human remains. The individual’s age and sex could not be ascertained. Other human remains from Boynton’s Shellheap were listed in a Notice of Inventory Completion published in the Federal Register on November 21, 2001 (66 FR 58522–58523, November 21, 2001) and were subsequently transferred to The Consulted Tribes. Based on artifact assemblages recovered from the site, Boynton’s Shellheap was occupied between 2,150 and 500 B.P. No known individual was identified. No associated funerary objects are present. Sometime in the 1930s, human remains representing, at minimum, one individual were removed from Falls Island (080.050) in Washington County, ME, by avocational archeologists John and Douglas Knapton.
