ACTION:
Notice.
In accordance with the Native
American Graves Protection and
Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), Ball State
University (BSU) intends to repatriate a
certain cultural item that meets the
definition of an unassociated funerary
object and that has a cultural affiliation
with the Indian Tribes or Native
Hawaiian organizations in this notice.
DATES: Repatriation of the cultural item
in this notice may occur on or after
December 16, 2024.
ADDRESSES: Chyan Gilaspy, Ball State
University, Applied Anthropology
Laboratories, 2000 W Riverside Avenue,

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 BSU and
additional information on the
determinations in this notice, including
the results of consultation, can be found
in the summary or related records. The
National Park Service is not responsible
for the determinations in this notice.
SUMMARY:
Abstract of Information Available
A total of one cultural item has been
requested for repatriation. The one
unassociated funerary object is an effigy
vessel or hooded water bottle (listed as
animal-shaped vessel in BSU records).
The item was donated to BSU by a
private donor in 1953. Based on
consultation, available documentation,
and archaeological evidence pertaining
to similar funerary objects, we conclude
that this cultural item was likely
removed from an ancestral Osage burial
at an unrecorded date and location prior
to 1953. There are no institutional
records indicating the presence of any
potentially hazardous substances used
to treat the cultural item.
Determinations
BSU has determined that:
• The one unassociated funerary
object described in this notice is
reasonably believed to have been placed
intentionally with or near individual
human remains at the time of death or
later as part of the death rite or
ceremony.
• There is a reasonable connection
between the cultural item described in
this notice and The Osage Nation.
Requests for Repatriation
Additional, written requests for
repatriation of the cultural item in this
notice must be sent to the authorized

Native Hawaiian organization not

this notice to a requestor may occur on

requests for repatriation are received,
BSU must determine the most
appropriate requestor prior to
repatriation. Requests for joint
