SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This

National Park Service’s administrative 

responsibilities under NAGPRA. The 

determinations in this notice are the

Description 

In 1972 and 1979, human remains 

representing, at minimum, three 

individuals were removed during an 

archeological surface survey by UWM of 

the Dusty Rhodes site (11–HE–14) in 

Henderson County, IL. The site dates to 

the Middle Woodland Havana/Hopewell 

(A.D. 0 to 400) and Late Woodland (A.D. 

600 to 1200) periods. After completion 

of the survey, these human remains 

were transferred to UWM. The one 

associated funerary object is one lot 

consisting of faunal skeletal elements, a 

projectile point, bifaces, lithic debitage, 

pottery sherds, and shell fragments. 

Cultural Affiliation 

The human remains and associated 

funerary object 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: geographical, 

historical, oral traditional, and expert 

opinion.

implementing regulations, and after 

consultation with the appropriate

organizations, the UWM has determined 

that: 

• The human remains described in 

this notice represent the physical 

remains of three individuals of Native 

American ancestry. 

• The one object described in this 

notice is 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. 

• There is a relationship of shared 

group identity that can be reasonably 

traced between the human remains and 

associated funerary objects described in

South Dakota; Flandreau Santee Sioux 

Tribe of South Dakota; Ho-Chunk 

Nation of Wisconsin; Iowa Tribe of
