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 various locations
throughout New Mexico and Arizona.
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. The National
Park Service is not responsible for the
determinations in this notice.
A detailed assessment of the human
remains was made by FBI professional
staff in consultation with
representatives of 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 Tribes’’).
History and Description of the Remains
At various unknown dates, human
remains representing, at minimum, 24
individuals were removed from
undisclosed locations throughout New
Mexico and Arizona. The human
remains were transported to Indiana,
where they remained as part of a private
collection of Native American
antiquities and cultural heritage. In
April of 2014, the human remains were
seized by the FBI as part of a criminal
investigation. Although these human
remains were heavily co-mingled at the
time of recovery, a preponderance of the
evidence shows that these human
remains are Native American and were

removed from the Southwest region of
New Mexico and Arizona. No known
individuals were identified. No
associated funerary objects were
present.
The composition of the soil matrix
present on the human remains, in
addition to other evidence obtained
through non-invasive/non-destructive
skeletal analysis, indicates that the
remains of these individuals were taken
from various undisclosed locations in
the American Southwest, specifically
New Mexico and Arizona. Based on
biological, archeological, geographical,
and anthropological information and
expert opinion, these individuals are
affiliated with the present-day Native
American people of the American
Southwest.
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
represent the physical remains of 24
individuals of Native American/
Southwest 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 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 the Federal
Bureau of Investigation, FBI
Headquarters, Attn: Supervisory Special
Agent (SSA) Randolph J. Deaton IV, Art
Theft Program, 935 Pennsylvania

artifacts@ic.fbi.gov, by September 12,
2022. After that date, if no additional
requestors have come forward, transfer
of control of the human remains to The
Tribes may proceed.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation is
responsible for notifying The Tribes that
this notice has been published.
