This
notice is published as part of the
National Park Service’s administrative
responsibilities under NAGPRA. The
determinations in this notice are the
sole responsibility of the New York
State Museum. The National Park

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Amendment
This notice amends the
determinations for the Dennis site, in
Menands, Albany County, NY, that were
published in the Federal Register on
December 9, 2022 (87 FR 75659–75662).
In the interim, additional human
remains as well as associated funerary
objects were identified. Repatriation of
the items from the Dennis site listed in
the original Notice of Inventory
Completion has not occurred.
Human remains belonging to, at
minimum, eight individuals were
removed from the Dennis site, in
Menands, Albany County, NY;
previously, only seven were identified.
The human remains were removed
during salvage excavations conducted
by Mr. R. Arthur Johnson and others,
after the site was disturbed by mining
activity. The 123 associated funerary
objects are 120 fragments of animal bone
and three unmodified stones;
previously, none were identified.
The Dennis site is located within
traditional Mohican territory.
Archeological evidence indicates it was
occupied intermittently from the Late
Archaic through Late Woodland
periods. The human remains and
associated funerary objects listed in this
notice most likely date to the later
occupation.

SUMMARY:
Description
Forty-nine cultural items were
removed from Wasco County, OR. These
cultural items were removed from
Memaloose Island by Sue Frewing, who
accompanied her father there as a child.
According to Frewing, at that time, the
entire island was fully accessible by
boat, as The Dalles Dam had not yet
been constructed. On March 31, 1986,
these cultural items were donated to the
High Desert Museum by Sue Frewing.
The 49 unassociated funerary objects are
five cylindrical beads, one disk shaped
bead, one brass bead, two strings of
beads, five animal teeth or claws, one
awl, one piece of leather with brass
tacks, one piece of wood with brass
tack, two rusted nails, one piece of a
buckle, two brass buttons, 16 brass
tacks, one piece of wood, one piece of
green fabric, one Dentalium shell, and
eight shells with sand.

Three lots of cultural items were
removed from Wasco County, OR, and
Klickitat County, WA. Around 1960,
Erna Mader Rose removed these cultural
items from Memaloose Island in either
Wasco County, OR, or Klickitat County,
WA. On July 6, 1994, Marian M.
Campbell, acting as Erna Rose’s
executrice, donated them to the High
Desert Museum. The three lots of
unassociated funerary objects are one lot
consisting of a Riker mount with seed
and shell beads, rolled copper
fragments, dentalium, carved wood or
bone fragment; one lot consisting of
glass beads; and one lot consisting of
shell and bone beads.
Ten cultural items were removed from
Wasco County, OR. In 1961, Erna Mader
Rose removed these cultural items from
the Bead Patch Site next to The Dalles
Bridge. On July 6, 1994, Marian M.
Campbell, acting as Erna Rose’s
executrice, donated them to the High
Desert Museum. The 10 unassociated
funerary objects are six stone point
fragments; two stone projectile points;
one stone drill; and one stone bead.
Cultural Affiliation
The cultural items in this notice are
connected to one or more identifiable
earlier groups, tribes, peoples, or
cultures. There is a relationship of
shared group identity between the
identifiable earlier groups, tribes,
peoples, or cultures and one or more
Indian Tribes or Native Hawaiian
organizations. The following types of
information were used to reasonably
trace the relationship: archeological,
geographical, historical, and oral
traditional.
Determinations
Pursuant to NAGPRA and its
implementing regulations, and after
consultation with the appropriate
Indian Tribes and Native Hawaiian
organizations, the High Desert Museum
has determined that:
• The 62 cultural items described
above 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 and are believed, by a
preponderance of the evidence, to have
been removed from a specific burial site
of a Native American individual.
• There is a relationship of shared
group identity that can be reasonably
traced between the cultural items and
the Confederated Tribes and Bands of
the Yakama Nation; Confederated Tribes
of the Umatilla Indian Reservation;
Confederated Tribes of the Warm
Springs Reservation of Oregon; and the
Nez Perce Tribe.
