Likewise, Miran Hill, the Keeper of all
wampum belts, funeral remains, masks,
and ceremonial items for the Six
Nations of the Grand River, who knew
doChAn’dre (‘‘Breaking Daylight’’) and
his father Hadaje’grenta (‘‘Flying
Cloud’’), confirmed they were from the
Six Nations of the Grand River. The
three false face masks are sacred objects.
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: anthropological,
geographical, historical, oral traditional,
kinship, and expert opinion.
Determinations
Pursuant to NAGPRA and its
implementing regulations, and after
consultation with the appropriate
Indian Tribes and Native Hawaiian
organizations, the James B. and Rosalyn
L. Pick Museum of Anthropology at
Northern Illinois University has
determined that:
• The 13 cultural items described
above are specific ceremonial objects
needed by traditional Native American
religious leaders for the practice of
traditional Native American religions by
their present-day adherents.
• There is a relationship of shared
group identity that can be reasonably
traced between the cultural items and
the Onondaga Nation.
Requests for Repatriation
Additional, written requests for
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,
Indian Tribe, or Native Hawaiian
organization not identified in this notice
who shows, by a preponderance of the
evidence, that the requestor is a lineal
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
or after August 7, 2023. If competing
requests for repatriation are received,
the James B. and Rosalyn L. Pick
Museum of Anthropology at Northern
Illinois University must determine the
most appropriate requestor prior to
repatriation. Requests for joint
repatriation of the cultural items are
considered a single request and not
competing requests. The James B. and
Rosalyn L. Pick Museum of
Anthropology at Northern Illinois
University is responsible for sending a
copy of this notice to the Indian Tribe
identified in this notice.
