remains and associated funerary objects
in this notice may occur on or after
September 22, 2023.

responsibilities under NAGPRA. The
determinations in this notice are the
sole responsibility of the University of
California, Riverside. The National Park
Service is not responsible for the
determinations in this notice.
Additional information on the
amendments and determinations in this
notice, including the results of

Amendment
This notice amends the
determinations published in a Notice of
Inventory Completion in the Federal
Register (68 FR 23495, May 2, 2003).
Repatriation of the items in the original
Notice of Inventory Completion has not
occurred. This amendment is being
made to reflect the identification of
newly discovered associated funerary
objects for the archeological collection
CA–RIV–1180 (accession 89). The
original notice only listed human
remains, but tribal representatives have
reviewed the remaining objects in the
collection and have identified funerary
objects. The 3,917 objects include 3,628
animal bones, one bone bead, 219
ceramic sherds, 45 lithic materials, 12
flaked stone tools, two ground stones,
one battered stone, and nine shell beads.

Pursuant to 43 CFR 10.16, the
Secretary of the Interior may make a
recommendation for a transfer of control
of the culturally unidentifiable human
remains and associated funerary objects.
In June of 2023, the Detroit Institute of
Arts requested that the Review
Committee consider a proposal to
transfer control of the human remains in
this notice to the Sault Ste. Marie Tribe
of Chippewa Indians, Michigan. The
Review Committee, acting pursuant to
its responsibility under 25 U.S.C.
3006(c)(5), considered the request at its
June 2023 meeting and recommended to
the Secretary that the proposed transfer
of control proceed. A July 2023 letter on
behalf of the Secretary of Interior from
the Designated Federal Official
transmitted the Secretary’s independent
review and concurrence with the
Review Committee that:
• The Detroit Institute of Arts
consulted with every appropriate Indian
Tribe or Native Hawaiian organization,
• None of the consulted and notified
Indian Tribes and Native Hawaiian
organizations objected to the proposed
transfer of control, and
• The Detroit Institute of Arts may
proceed with the agreed upon transfer of
control of the culturally unidentifiable
human remains and associated funerary
objects to the Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of
Chippewa Indians, Michigan.
Transfer of control is contingent on
the publication of a Notice of Inventory
Completion in the Federal Register.
This notice fulfills that requirement.
Determinations
Officials of the Detroit Institute of
Arts have determined that:
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the
human remains described in this notice
are Native American based on biological
evidence.
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the
human remains described in this notice
represent the physical remains of 11
individuals of Native American
ancestry.
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(A),
the six 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), a
relationship of shared group identity
cannot be reasonably traced between the
Native American human remains and
associated funerary objects and any
present-day Indian Tribe.
• Pursuant to 43 CFR 10.10(g)(2) and
10.16, the disposition of the human
remains and associated funerary objects
may be to the Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of
Chippewa Indians, Michigan.

Description
Ten lots of cultural items were
removed from Placer County, CA, most
likely between 1924 and 1938, by Smith
Coin and Curio Company, which,
during those years, was located at 1541
48th Street in Sacramento, CA. These
cultural items were likely procured for
the Augusta Museum of History by
former director Jouett Davenport, Sr.
(1937–1963). The 10 objects of cultural
patrimony are individual lots consisting
of ceramic, glass, and stone beads.
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 expert
opinion.
Determinations
Pursuant to NAGPRA and its
implementing regulations, and after
consultation with the appropriate
Indian Tribes and Native Hawaiian
organizations, the Augusta Museum of
History has determined that:
• The 10 cultural items described
above have ongoing historical,
traditional, or cultural importance
central to the Native American group or
culture itself, rather than property
owned by an individual.
• There is a relationship of shared
group identity that can be reasonably
traced between the cultural items and
