SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is 

here given in accordance with the 

Native American Graves Protection and 

Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), 25 U.S.C. 

3003, of the completion of an inventory 

of human remains and associated 

funerary objects under the control of the 

Wistariahurst Museum, Holyoke, MA. 

The human remains and associated 

funerary objects were removed from 

Holyoke Highlands, Hampden County, 

MA. 

This notice is published as part of the 

National Park Service’s administrative 

responsibilities under NAGPRA, 25 

U.S.C. 3003(d)(3). The determinations in 

this notice are the sole responsibility of 

the museum, institution, or Federal 

agency that has control of the Native 

American human remains and 

associated funerary objects. The 

National Park Service is not responsible 

for the determinations in this notice. 

Consultation 

A detailed assessment of the human 

remains was made by the Wistariahurst 

Museum professional staff in 

consultation with representatives of the 

Stockbridge Munsee Community, 

Wisconsin. The Delaware Tribe of 

Indians; Mohegan Tribe of Indians of 

Connecticut (previously listed as 

Mohegan Indian Tribe of Connecticut); 

and the Narragansett Indian Tribe were 

invited to consult but did not 

participate (hereafter, all the above 

Indian Tribes are referred to as ‘‘The 

Consulted and Invited Tribes’’). 

History and Description of the Remains 

In March of 1904, human remains 

representing, at minimum, one 

individual were removed from Holyoke 

Highlands in Hampden County, MA. 

The Holyoke Water Power Company 

uncovered the human remains while 

excavating a building site. A newspaper 

article in the Holyoke TelegramTranscript of March 9, 1904 describes 

the circumstances of this discovery: 

One of the most important archaeological 

discoveries in this Vicinity was made 

yesterday by workmen of the Holyoke Water 

Power Company who in making some 

excavations in this city, unearthed what is 

supposed to have been the remains of an 

Indian warrior, long since dead. Undoubtedly 

the body of the deceased Indian had lain in 

the ground for several hundred years as it 

was entirely decomposed; so that not even 

the bones remained intact with the exception 

of two small fragments, one of which is 

supposed to be part of a jaw-bone and the 

other is so small that its exact kind cannot 

be determined. 

In the same place were found a necklace 

of copper and shell beads about a foot in 

length. The copper beads were one-fourth to 

a half inch in diameter and the copper used 

in the composition of the beads showed that 

they were made of sheet metal which had 

been rolled into shape. As the Indians did no 

smelting the copper must have come from the 

west where it is found in large quantities 

than in this part of the country. The shells 

used in the beads were oblong-shaped, about 

11⁄2 inches long and half an inch in width 

and were a sort of bone composition. The 

copper and shell beads alternated every fifth 


khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 244 / Friday, December 18, 2020 / Notices 82507 

bead being of shell followed by four copper 

ones. In the excavation were also a few small 

conch shells and two tubes of purplish-red 

sand-stone, one about 10 inches long and one 

inch in diameter and the other six inches 

long and the same diameter. . . 

The articles discovered, however, will be 

photographed and the black substance in the 

tubes will be analyzed. Through the 

generosity of the Holyoke Water Power 

Company, all of these important relics have 

been presented to the Holyoke library 

association and are now in their possession. 

Under the April 1980 Agreement for 

Judgment in City of Holyoke v. Holyoke 

Public Library Corporation (Civil Action 

No. 75–2093), the Indian and Natural 

History Collections were deeded to the 

City of Holyoke, of which the 

Wistariahurst Museum is a department. 

No known individual was identified. 

The 53 associated funerary objects are 

two steatite tube pipes (one pipe is 

broken), 43 copper beads, one bone 

bead, five shell beads, one small bone 

fragment, and one animal jawbone 

fragment. With the exception of the 

beads, all the associated funerary objects 

are mounted on an orange plaque. 

In her article Native Land Use and 

Settlements in Northeastern Woodlands 

and Schaghticoke and Points North: 

Wobanaki Resistance and Persistence, 

Native American scholar Marge Bruchac 

suggests that many Connecticut River 

Valley Tribes were forced out of the 

area, and as a consequence, they merged 

with other Indian Tribes. So, for 

example, the Nipmuc could have moved 

in with the Schaghticoke and 

Stockbridge Munsee. Holyoke, located 

on the western side of the Connecticut 

River, would thus have lain at the 

convergence of these many tribal 

groups. 

Determinations Made by the 

Wistariahurst Museum 

Officials of the Wistariahurst Museum 

have determined that: 

• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the 

human remains described in this notice 

represent the physical remains of one 

individual of Native American ancestry. 

• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(A), 

the 53 objects described in this notice 

are reasonably believed to have been 

placed with or near individual human 

remains at the time of death or later as 

part of the death rite or ceremony. 

• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(2), there 

is a relationship of shared group 

identity that can be reasonably traced 

between the Native American human 

remains and associated funerary objects 

and the Stockbridge Munsee 

Community, Wisconsin. 

Additional Requestors and Disposition 

Lineal descendants or representatives 

of any Indian Tribe or Native Hawaiian 

organization not identified in this notice 

that wish to request transfer of control 

of these human remains and associated 

funerary objects should submit a written 

request with information in support of 

the request to Penni Martorell, 

Wistariahurst Museum, 238 Cabot 

Street, Holyoke, MA 01040, telephone 

(413) 322–5660, email MartorellP@

Holyoke.org, by January 19, 2021. After 

that date, if no additional requestors 

have come forward, transfer of control 

of the human remains and associated 

funerary objects to the Stockbridge 

Munsee Community, Wisconsin may 

proceed. 

The Wistariahurst Museum is 

responsible for notifying The Consulted 

and Invited Tribes that this notice has 

been published.

the Hohokam archeological culture 

(A.D. 1–1450).

individuals were removed during 

excavations conducted at site AZ 

U:9:1(ASM)/Pueblo Grande in Maricopa 

County, AZ. Although the human 

remains have been kept in the 

collections of PGM since they were 

excavated, the majority of them were 

not identified as human until 2018, 

during a review of the faunal collection.
