SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This

additional information on the
determinations in this notice, including
the results of consultation, can be found

SUMMARY:
Abstract of Information Available
Based on the information available,
human remains representing, at least,
six individuals have been reasonably
identified. No associated funerary
objects are present. Excavations were
conducted in 1992 prior to a FDOT
bridge replacement project along SR
A1A on Matanzas Inlet in St. Johns
County Florida. Fourteen burials were
identified during the original project
and pathological analysis was
conducted by Dr. Lisa Hoshower from
the University of Florida. It was
believed that all of the associated
remains had been repatriated in 1997,
however an ongoing collections and
curation project at FDOT has identified
additional remains from six of the
fourteen burials that were separated
from the original collection and,
therefore, not repatriated.
Cultural Affiliation
Based on the information available
and the results of consultation, cultural
affiliation is clearly identified by the
information available about the human
remains described in this notice.

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Native American Graves Protection and
Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), the University of Tennessee, Department of
[[Page 24505]]
Anthropology (UTK) has completed an inventory of human remains and has
determined that there is a cultural affiliation between the human
remains and Indian Tribes or Native Hawaiian organizations in this
notice.
DATES: Repatriation of the human remains in this notice may occur on or
after May 8, 2024.
ADDRESSES: Dr. Ozlem Kilic, University of Tennessee, Office of the
Provost, 527 Andy Holt Tower, Knoxville, TN 37996-0152, telephone (865)
974-2454, email [email protected] and [email protected].
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice is published as part of the
National Park Service's administrative responsibilities under NAGPRA.
The determinations in this notice are the sole responsibility of UTK,
and additional information on the determinations in this notice,
including the results of consultation, can be found in the inventory or
related records. The National Park Service is not responsible for the
determinations in this notice.
Abstract of Information Available
Based on the information available, human remains representing, at
least, one individual have been reasonably identified. No associated
funerary objects are present. These remains were removed from Shawnee
County, KS. There are no records for these remains on file at UTK, only
a single note: ``Shawnee Co. KBI Sept 62''. This individual was likely
found and turned over to law enforcement or confiscated by law
enforcement. Based on a past pattern of practice, the individual was
probably sent by the Kansas Bureau of Investigation to Dr. William Bass
at the University of Kansas for examination. Bass likely kept the
remains once he determined they were not of recent origin (i.e., a
missing person or crime victim), and brought them to Knoxville when he
began working at UTK in 1971. These remains were housed at the UTK
Forensic Anthropology Center (case 9-62A), until they were transferred
to the UTK Office of Repatriation. No associated funerary objects are
present at UTK. Shawnee County, KS, is part of the treaty lands of the
Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation. An unknown substance/s may have been
used to treat the human remains.
Cultural Affiliation
Based on the information available and the results of consultation,
cultural affiliation is reasonably identified by the geographical
location or acquisition history of the human remains described in this
notice.
Determinations
UTK has determined that:
The human remains described in this notice represent the
physical remains of one individual of Native American ancestry.
There is a reasonable connection between the human remains
and associated funerary objects described in this notice and the
Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation.
Requests for Repatriation
Written requests for repatriation of the human remains in this
notice must be sent to the authorized representative identified in this
notice under ADDRESSES. Requests for repatriation may be submitted by:
1. Any one or more of the Indian Tribes or Native Hawaiian
organizations identified in this notice.
2. 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 human remains in this notice to a requestor may
occur on or after May 8, 2024. If competing requests for repatriation
are received, UTK must determine the most appropriate requestor prior
to repatriation. Requests for joint repatriation of the human remains
are considered a single request and not competing requests. UTK is
responsible for sending a copy of this notice to the Indian Tribes and
Native Hawaiian organizations identified in this notice.
