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 Federal Bureau of Investigation, Washington, DC. The human remains and associated funerary objects were removed from Mauckport Ferry Mound in Harrison County, IN, and Crib Mound in Spencer County, IN. 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 FBI professional staff in consultation with representatives of the Miami Tribe of Oklahoma; Pokagon Band of Potawatomi Indians, Michigan and Indiana; and the Shawnee Tribe (hereafter referred to as ‘‘The Consulted Tribes’’). khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES History and Description of the Remains At an unknown date believed to be in the mid-1960s, human remains representing, at minimum, 39 individuals were removed from Mauckport Ferry Mound in Harrison County, IN, and Crib Mound in Spencer County, IN. No known individuals were identified. The 110 associated funerary objects are six projectile points, 23 pieces of worked stone, 26 pottery sherds, five shell fragments, four pieces of clay, and 46 faunal remains. The Mauckport Ferry Mound site is a Late Archaic site dating from 4,000 to 1,000 B.C., and the Crib Mound site is a Middle-to-Late Archaic site. Both sites were heavily looted during the 1950s and 1960s. Following their removal, the human remains were transported to a VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:31 Sep 13, 2022 Jkt 256001 private residence where they remained part of a larger collection. In April of 2014, these human remains were seized by the FBI as part of a criminal investigation. Based upon both physical evidence obtained through criminal investigation and osteological analysis, and information obtained through consultation, a relationship of shared group identity can be reasonably traced between the Native American human remains and the Pokagon Band of Potawatomi Indians, Michigan and Indiana. 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 39 individuals of Native American/ Southwest ancestry. • Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(A) the 110 objects described in this notice are reasonably believed to have been placed with or near individual human remains at the time of death or later as part of the death rite or ceremony. • 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 Pokagon Band of Potawatomi Indians, Michigan and Indiana.

Central Michigan University acquired these human remains in 1971, through two separate donations. The human remains belong VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:31 Sep 13, 2022 Jkt 256001 56443 to a young adult female. No known individual was identified.

History and Description of the Remains

owned by Mr. Ray Stanley in the vicinity of Hovenweep National Monument 
and approximately 12 miles outside the municipality of Cortez, in 
Montezuma County, Colorado. Central Michigan University acquired these 
human remains in 1971, through two separate donations. The human 
remains belong to a young adult female. No known individual was 
identified. The five associated funerary objects are one bone awl, 
three ceramic pieces, and one lot of faunal remains.
    A detailed assessment of the human remains was made by 
Anthropologists Jacqueline T. Eng and Janet Gardner who determined the 
individual was of Native American descent. Based upon the burial 
context detailed in the original site report, the site is reasonably 
believed to be Anasazi and to date from the Basketmaker II (1000 B.C.) 
to Pueblo III (A.D. 1300) periods. The stylistic attributes of the 
associated funerary objects from the Stanley Site indicate that they 
are of Ancestral Puebloan manufacture.
