Information about cultural items.

Between 1860 and 1919, Dr. J.L. Hill or 

another individual removed human 

remains representing a minimum of 13 

individuals from the Calapooia Mounds 

site, Linn County, OR. A published 

source states that Dr. Hill worked at the 

Calapooia Mounds site in 1883, but it is 

not clear whether Dr. Hill removed the 

13 individuals from the Calapooia 

Mounds site at that time. No other 

provenance documentation is available. 

The status of the land at the time of 

removal is unknown. No known 

individual was identified. No associated 

funerary objects are present.

Between 1860 and 1919, Dr. Hill, J.G. 

Crawford, or another individual 

removed human remains representing a 

minimum of 15 individuals from the 

Tangent and/or Calapooia Mounds sites, 

Linn County, OR. A 1930 document lists 

J.G. Crawford as an original donor along 

with Dr. Hill. The museum does not 

have information about how Dr. Hill or 

Mr. Crawford acquired the human 

remains. The only provenance 

documentation available is a label on a 

rib, which says ‘‘From Tangent Mound,’’

and a partial label on a femur, which 

says ‘‘mound.’’ The status of the land at 

the time of removal is unknown. No 

known individual was identified. No 

associated funerary objects are present. 

The human remains are part of the Dr. 

J.L. Hill collection. The Museum of 

Oregon Country, Oregon Agricultural 

College acquired the collection from Dr. 

Hill’s son and daughter in 1925. The 

Museum of Oregon Country was 

renamed the John B. Horner Museum of 

the Oregon Country in 1936, and 

became commonly known as the Horner 

Museum. The Oregon Agricultural 

College was renamed the Oregon State 

College in 1937, and became Oregon 

State University in 1962. The Horner 

Museum closed in 1995. Currently, 

cultural items from the Horner Museum 

are referred to as the Horner Collection, 

which is owned by, and in the 

possession of, Oregon State University. 

The Confederated Tribes of the Grand 

Ronde Community of Oregon is made 

up of tribes from throughout western 

Oregon, which were later located on the 

Grand Ronde Reservation. The ceded 

lands for the Confederated Tribes of the 

Grand Ronde Community of Oregon 

encompass the Tangent and the 

Calapooia Mounds sites. 

Determinations. Under 25 U.S.C. 

3003, museum officials determined that 

the human remains represent the 

physical remains of 28 individuals of 

Native American ancestry. Museum 

officials determined that the human
