Abstract of Information Available
Based on the information available,
human remains representing, at least,
four individuals have been reasonably
identified. No associated funerary
objects are present.
Human remains representing, at
minimum, four individuals were
presumably removed from Stark County,
ND. These remains consist of the
following, with the assumption of
affiliation with the Three Affiliated
Tribes of the Fort Berthold Reservation,
North Dakota, presumed to belong to
four individuals, consisting of the
following inventory of remains: three
crania; one skull; one thoracic vertebra;
three reassociated sets of postcranial
remains from three individuals: Right
femur, right fibula, left radius, two left
ribs, one lumbar vertebra. The right
femur is transected at midshaft. Left
femur, left tibia, left fibula, right talus.
The left femur consists of five large
fragments. Right tibia, left ulna, right os
coxa, two right ribs, one lumbar
vertebra. The right tibia is fractured
postmortem from weather and wear.
The remains are in variable condition.
Two crania consisting of the anterior
portion of the skull are in poor
condition. One cranium is complete
with fracturing to delicate bones and
protuberances is colored a rich, mottled
brown and is light weight and friable.
The skull is complete and is in good
condition. The postcranial remains are
in good-to-poor condition from
environmental exposure and subsequent
use.
Cultural Affiliation
Based on the information available
and the results of consultation, cultural
affiliation is reasonably identified by the
geographical location.
Determinations
Dickinson State University has
determined that:
• The human remains described in
this notice represent the physical
remains of approximately four
individuals of Native American
ancestry.
• There is a reasonable connection
between the human remains described
in this notice and the Three Affiliated
Tribes of the Fort Berthold Reservation,
North Dakota.
