Human remains representing, at
minimum, five individuals were
removed from Washoe County, NV. The
human remains consisted of five

incomplete individuals: one adult male;
one young adult male approximately
20–35 years old; one young adult male;
one youth, possibly male,
approximately 15–20 years old; and one
child. These human remains were
originally cataloged by the Hearst
Museum under Accession 1030 and
their catalog number is 12–8369. At the
request of the Pyramid Lake Paiute
Tribe, these human remains were
transferred to the Nevada State Museum
(NSM) in 2012. The NSM catalog
numbers for the human remains are
AHUR 6019 through 6023.
The Bureau of Land Management
recently became aware of Native
American human remains collected
prior to November 16, 1990, on lands
administered by the BLM. The human
remains were reported as culturally
unidentifiable on June 19, 2003, by the
Phoebe A. Hearst Museum of
Anthropology (Hearst Museum). In
November 2011, the BLM became aware
of previously unreported Native
American human remains through a
letter from the Pyramid Lake Paiute
Tribe requesting BLM involvement in
assisting with the repatriation of
remains being held at the Hearst
Museum. The remains were collected
sometime in 1947–1948 near
Winnemucca Lake Caves in Nevada and
received by the Hearst Museum in 1948.
According to the records of the Hearst
Museum, this material was reported in
their Washoe County Inventory, dated
June 28, 2000. In a closer review of the
locality documentation, it was
determined the material is under the
control of the BLM.
Cultural Affiliation
The human remains 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: geographical
information and expert opinion.
Determinations
Pursuant to NAGPRA and its
implementing regulations, and after
consultation with the appropriate
Indian Tribes and Native Hawaiian
organizations, the Winnemucca District
Office has determined that:
• The human remains described in
this notice represent the physical
remains of five individuals of Native
American ancestry.
