SUMMARY:
ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1
Description
Human remains representing, at
minimum, two individuals were
removed from an unknown geographic
location or locations, believed to be in
Oregon or Washington. On an unknown
date, the human remains (MMC–2008–
16.1.6[3]; MMC–2008–16.1.6[5]) came to
the OHSU, where they became a part of
the Medical Museum Collection. No
associated funerary objects are present.
Human remains representing, at
minimum, one individual were removed

from an unknown geographic location,
believed to be in Oregon or Washington.
On an unknown date, the human
remains (teeth) (SOD–2010.281.17) were
removed from an unknown patient of
Dr. Ernest Starr, Interim Dean of the
University of Oregon Dental School
from 1944 to 1946, or one of his
colleagues. The University of Oregon
Dental School then became the OHSU.
On an unknown date, the human
remains were transferred to the Oregon
Health & Science University School of
Dentistry, where they became part of
what was called the ‘‘Ernest E. Starr
Memorial Museum of Dental
Anomalies.’’ No associated funerary
objects are present.
Human remains representing, at
minimum, four individuals were
removed from an unknown geographic
location or locations, believed to be in
Oregon or Washington. On an unknown
date, the human remains (SOD–2010–
2.281.17[5]; SOD–2010–2.281.17[9];
SOD–2010–2.281.17[10]; SOD–2010–
2.281.17[1]) were transferred to the
School of Dentistry at Oregon Health &
Science University, where they were
used for teaching purposes. The School
of Dentistry changed buildings in 2011
or 2012. Based on institutional
knowledge, the 2010 catalog numbers
that include ‘‘SOD’’ were likely assigned
in anticipation of that move, when the
School of Dentistry collections were
moved to the OHSU Archives. No
associated funerary objects are present.
Aboriginal Land
The human remains in this notice
were removed from known geographic
locations. These locations are the
aboriginal lands of one or more Indian
Tribes. The following information was
used to identify the aboriginal land: a
final judgment of the Indian Claims
Commission, the United States Court of
Claims, a treaty, an Act of Congress, an
Executive Order, and other information,
such as expert testimony.
Determinations
Pursuant to NAGPRA and its
implementing regulations, and after
consultation with the appropriate
Indian Tribes, the OHSU has
determined that:
• The human remains described in
this notice represent the physical
remains of seven individuals of Native
American ancestry.
• No relationship of shared group
identity can be reasonably traced
between the human remains and any
Indian Tribe.
• The human remains described in
this notice were removed from the
aboriginal land of the Big Pine Paiute
