Notice of Inventory Completion
Amendment: Louisiana State

Amendment
This notice amends determinations
concerning human remains and
associated funerary objects from site
16AV4, the Phillip Nicks site, listed in
a Notice of Inventory Completion that
was published in the Federal Register
on December 13, 2000 (65 FR 77907–
77908). Repatriation of the items in the
original Notice of Inventory Completion
has not occurred. During a re-inventory
of collections from site 16AV4, the
minimum number of individuals was
determined to be five, rather than six as
previously reported. In addition, 64
historical objects that previously were
thought to have come from the general
site area were determined to come from
the disturbed mound summit and,
consequently, they are associated
funerary objects. The 427 associated
funerary objects (previously identified
as 363 associated funerary objects)
include bracelets, rings, glass beads,
textile fragments, shell fragments, gun
flints, lead shot, iron nails, and iron nail
fragments.

In accordance with the Native
American Graves Protection and
Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), Louisiana
State University, Museum of Natural
Science (LSUMNS) has amended a
Notice of Inventory Completion
published in the Federal Register on
December 13, 2000. This notice amends
the minimum number of individuals
and the number of associated funerary
objects in a collection removed from the
Phillip Nicks Place site in Avoyelles
Parish, LA (16AV4).
DATES: Repatriation of the human
remains and associated funerary objects
in this notice may occur on or after
October 30, 2023.
