Archeologist and then transferred to the 

MIAC (H376). No known individuals 

were identified. No associated funerary 

objects are present. 

The condition of the remains and the 

degree of dental attrition suggest these 

human remains are ancient/pre-contact 

in time. Cranial morphology identifies 

this individual as American Indian. The 

human remains have no archeological 

classification and cannot be associated 

with any present-day Indian tribe. 

At an unknown date, human remains 

representing, at minimum, eight 

individuals were removed from an 

undesignated site on the south end of 

Gull Lake, Cass County, MN, by 

unknown person(s) and transferred to D. 

Birk of the Minnesota Historical Society. 

In 1998, the human remains were 

transferred to the Minnesota Office of 

the State Archeologist and in 1999, to 

the MIAC (H372). No known 

individuals were identified. No 

associated funerary objects are present. 

The condition of the remains 

identifies these human remains as precontact American Indian. The human 

remains have no archeological 

classification and cannot be associated 

with any present-day Indian tribe. 

At an unknown date, human remains 

representing one individual were 

removed from mounds on the north end 

of Lake Benton City, Lincoln County, 

MN, by unknown person(s). In 2002, 

Mr. David Norden donated the human 

remains to the Lake Benton Area 

Historical Society. In 2004, the human 

remains were transferred to the MIAC

with the Woodland Tradition, an 

archeological classification which 

cannot be associated with any presentday Indian tribe. 

At an unknown date, human remains 

representing, at minimum, two 

individuals were removed from an 

undesignated site in Pope County, MN, 

and donated to the Pope County 

Historical Society (Acc. 66.391 and 

66.394). In 1997, the human remains 

were transferred to Dave Nystuen, 

Minnesota Historical Society who 

transferred the remains to the Minnesota 

Office of the State Archeologist. In 1999, 

the human remains were transferred to 

the MIAC (H370). No known 

individuals were identified. No 

associated funerary objects are present. 

Archeological material transferred 

with the human remains including

In the late 1940s, human remains 

representing, at minimum, two 

individuals were recovered when a 

mound was leveled during construction 

of a parking lot at the site of the Elk 

Lake Tavern in (Little) Elk Lake, 

Sherburne County, MN, and donated to 

the University of Minnesota. In 1999, 

the human remains were transferred to 

the MIAC (H355). No known 

individuals were identified. No 

associated funerary objects are present. 

The context of these human remains 

in a mound and femora morphology 

identify these human remains as precontact American Indian. The human 

remains are associated with the 

Woodland Tradition, a broad 

archeological classification which 

cannot be associated with any presentday Indian tribe.

Indian Affairs Council 

Officials of the MIAC have 

determined that: 

• Based on non-destructive physical 

analysis and catalogue records, the 

human remains are Native American.

Indian Claims Commission, the land 

from which the Native American human 

remains were removed is the aboriginal 

land of The Tribes.

Consultation 

A detailed assessment of the human 

remains was made by the MIAC 

professional staff in consultation with 

representatives of the Leech Lake Band 

of the Minnesota Chippewa Tribe, 

Minnesota; the Minnesota Chippewa 

Tribe, Minnesota; and the White Earth 

Band of Minnesota Chippewa Tribe, 

Minnesota. 

History and Description of the Remains 

In 1970, human remains representing, 

at minimum, one individual were 

removed from the Dunton Locks area, 

Becker County, MN, by unknown 

person(s) and donated to the Becker 

County Historical Society (HR–1). In 

1997, the human remains were 

transferred to the Minnesota Office of 

the State Archaeologist and 

subsequently transferred to the MIAC 

(H366) in 1999. No known individuals 

were identified. No associated funerary 

objects are present. 

The red ochre staining on the human 

remains is consistent with American 

Indian mortuary practices over a broad 

temporal span and cannot be associated 

with any single archeological tradition. 

The human remains have no 

archeological classification and cannot 

be associated with any present-day 

Indian tribe. 

In 1955, human remains representing, 

at minimum, two individuals were 

removed from the Rock Lake area, 

Becker County, MN, by unknown 

person(s) and donated to the Becker 

County Historical Society (HR–2). In 

1997, the human remains were 

transferred to the Minnesota Office of 

the State Archaeologist and 

subsequently transferred to the MIAC 

(H364) in 1999. No known individuals 

were identified. No associated funerary 

objects are present. 

The human remains have no 

archeological classification and cannot 

be associated with any present-day 

Indian tribe. 

In the 1980s, human remains 

representing, at minimum, two 

individuals were recovered from site 

21BK37, Buck’s Mill (aka Hildebrand 

site). The remains were collected by Mr. 

Hildebrand, the property owner, during 

construction of a garage and were 

donated to the Becker County Historical 

Society (HR–3). In 1997, the human 

remains were transferred to the 

Minnesota Office of the State 

Archaeologist and subsequently 

transferred to the MIAC (H365) in 1999. 

No known individuals were identified. 

No associated funerary objects are 

present. Additional individuals were 

removed from this site in 1985, a notice 

of inventory completion was published 

in the Federal Register (FR 64 FR 

43212, September 8, 1999) and the 

human remains from the 1985 collection 

were repatriated and reburied. 

Site 21BK37 has no archeological 

classification. The human remains 

cannot be associated with any presentday Indian tribe. 

In 1954, human remains representing, 

at minimum, four individuals were 

recovered from the north shore of 

Detroit Lake (Steffen Lot), Becker 

County, MN, by unknown person(s) 

during basement construction and 

donated to the Becker County Historical 

Society (HR–5). In 1997, the human 

remains were transferred to the 

Minnesota Office of the State 

Archeologist and then to the MIAC 

(H363). No known individuals were 

identified. The twelve associated 

funerary objects include three bone 

needles made from the ribs of a black 

bear, six pieces of modified rib bone 

from a black bear, two unmodified 

fibulae from a black bear and one piece 

of quartz with red ochre pigment. 

The human remains are associated 

with the Archaic Tradition, a broad 

archeological classification which 

cannot be associated with any presentday Indian tribe. 

In 1888, human remains representing, 

at minimum, four individuals were 

recovered from a mound in the city of 

Detroit Lakes, Becker County, MN, by 

Rev. W.A. Pratt and donated to the 

Becker County Historical Society (HR– 

6). In 1997, the human remains were 

transferred to the Minnesota Office of 

the State Archaeologist and 

subsequently transferred to MIAC 

(H361) in 1999. No known individuals 

were identified. No associated funerary 

objects are present. 

The human remains are associated 

with the Woodland Tradition, a broad 

archeological classification which 

cannot be associated with any presentday Indian tribe. 

In 1935, human remains representing, 

at minimum, three individuals were 

recovered from a mound (Mound Z/1), 

site 21BK9, on the north shore of Detroit 

Lake, MN, by Otto Zeck. At an unknown 

date, the human remains were 

transferred to J. Oothoudt who then 

transferred the human remains to the 

Minnesota Office of the State 

Archaeologist. In 2002, the remains 

were transferred to the MIAC (H383). No 

known individuals were identified. No 

associated funerary objects are present. 

The context of burial in a mound 

identifies the human remains with the 

Woodland Tradition, a broad 

archeological classification which 

cannot be associated with any presentday Indian tribe. 

In 2001, human remains representing, 

at minimum, one individual were 

recovered from the Crow Wing River, 

Wadena County, MN, by two swimmers 

while wading in the river. The human 

remains were turned over to the Wadena 

County Sheriff’s Department, who 

transferred them to the Minnesota 

Bureau of Criminal Apprehension and 

then to the Minnesota Office of the State 

Archaeologist. In 2004, the human 

remains were transferred to the MIAC 

(H408). No known individuals were 

identified. No associated funerary 

objects are present. 

The condition and morphology of the 

human remains, in addition to a 

radiocarbon date (AD 1290–1420) 

obtained by the Minnesota Bureau of 

Criminal Apprehension, indicate precontact American Indian affiliation. The 

human remains have no archeological 

classification and cannot be associated 

with any present-day Indian tribe. 

Determinations Made by the Minnesota 

Indian Affairs Council 

Officials of the MIAC have 

determined that: 

• Based on non-destructive physical 

analysis and catalogue records, the 

human remains are Native American. 

• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(2), a

from which the Native American human 

remains and associated funerary objects 

were removed is the aboriginal land of 

the Leech Lake Band of the Minnesota 

Chippewa Tribe, Minnesota; the 

Minnesota Chippewa Tribe, Minnesota 

and the White Earth Band of Minnesota 

Chippewa Tribe, Minnesota. 

• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the 

human remains described in this notice 

represent the physical remains of 17 

individuals of Native American 

ancestry.

the 12 objects described above 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 43 CFR 10.11(c)(1), the 

disposition of the human remains is to 

the Leech Lake Band of the Minnesota 

Chippewa Tribe, Minnesota; the 

Minnesota Chippewa Tribe, Minnesota 

and the White Earth Band of Minnesota 

Chippewa Tribe, Minnesota.
