Abstract of Information Available
Human remains representing, at

Jkt 262001
from 35–TI–09, Rube Wilkens Farm,
north bank of the Kilchis River,
Tillamook Bay, OR. No associated
funerary objects are present.
In August of 1953, Dr. Herbert Taylor
conducted an archaeological survey in
Tillamook County, Oregon, where he
located this site on Rube Wilkens Farm.
The site was excavated by Western
Washington State College field school
students as well as local inhabitants.
The Revised 1999 WWU NAGPRA
Inventory has been updated to include
the Smithsonian trinomial for this
location, as well as revised cultural
affiliation. The human remains
description has not been revised. No
known individuals were identified. No
hazardous chemicals are known to have
been used to treat the human remains or
associated funerary objects while in the
custody of WWU.
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: anthropological
information, archaeological information,
geographical information, historical
information, and oral tradition.
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.
Determinations
The WWU has determined that:
• The human remains described in
this notice represent the physical
remains of at least one individual of
Native American ancestry.
• There is a connection between the
human remains described in this notice
and the Confederated Tribes of Siletz
Indians of Oregon.
Requests for Repatriation
Written requests for repatriation of the
human remains in this notice must be

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
PO 00000

the requestor is a lineal descendant or
an Indian Tribe or Native Hawaiian
organization with cultural affiliation.
Repatriation of the human remains
described in this notice to a requestor
may occur on or after October 10, 2024.
If competing requests for repatriation
are received, the WWU 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. The WWU is
responsible for sending a copy of this
notice to the Indian Tribes and Native
Hawaiian organizations identified in
this notice.
