SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Abstract of Information Available
Based on the information available,
one associated funerary object is
present. The one cultural item, a single
bone awl, was removed from Bell
County, TX. In 1990, the remains of an
adult female individual, along with the
partial and fragmentary remains of five
other individuals, were removed from
site 41BL671 by a University of Texas
field school. The individual was
discovered in a tightly flexed position
and a bone pin was found in the
abdominal area. The individuals were
documented in a Notice of Inventory
Completion published in the Federal
Register on August 14, 1995, returned to
the Tonkawa Tribe of Indians of
Oklahoma, and reburied in the
Comanche National Indian Cemetery on
post. The bone awl, currently housed in
Fort Cavazos’ curation facility, was not
returned, and was found in Fort
Cavazos’ archaeological collections in
2021. No known substances were used
to treat the associated funerary object.
Requests for Repatriation
Written requests for repatriation of the
associated funerary object 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 associated
funerary object in this notice to a
requestor may occur on or after
November 8, 2024. If competing
requests for repatriation are received,
Fort Cavazos must determine the most
appropriate requestor prior to
