preponderance of the evidence, to have
been removed from specific burial sites
of Native American individuals.

group identity that can be reasonably
traced between the cultural items and
The Chickasaw Nation.

repatriation of the cultural items in this
notice must be sent to the Responsible
Official identified in ADDRESSES.
Requests for repatriation may be
submitted by any lineal descendant,

descendant or a culturally affiliated
Indian Tribe or Native Hawaiian
organization.
Repatriation of the cultural items in
this notice to a requestor may occur on

requests for repatriation are received,

appropriate requestor prior to
