SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

notice is published as part of the

sole responsibility of the State Historical 

Society of Wisconsin. The National Park

Description 

The one cultural item has the catalog 

number 1950.6447 and is described in 

Society documentation as both a War 

Club and a Prophet Stick belonging to 

Chief Spoon Decorah and was removed 

from Black River Falls, Jackson County, 

WI. The State Historical Society of 

Wisconsin purchased this item on 

December 3, 1913 for $20.00 from Dr. 


ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1
88654 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 245 / Friday, December 22, 2023 / Notices 

Paul Radin, who reported collecting the 

item in Black River Falls, Wisconsin 

and indicated that it was formerly the 

property of Ho-Chunk/Winnebago Chief 

Spoon Decorah. The Decorah War Club/ 

Prophet Stick was purchased from Dr. 

Paul Radin at the same time as the 

Decorah War Bundle, which was 

repatriated by the State Historical 

Society of Wisconsin to the Ho-Chunk 

Nation of Wisconsin in 2012. The 

Decorah name has been spelled various 

ways throughout history, including 

DeCarrie, Dekorah, Decorah, Decora, 

DeKaury. 

The Decorah War Club/Prophet Stick 

is a curved wooden item with one ‘‘leg’’ 

longer than the other and a raised 

circular knob at the junction of these 

legs. The War Club/Prophet Stick has 

numerous carvings including a column 

of pictographs. There is a metal blade 

attached to the top of the Prophet Stick, 

which was added by former State 

Historical Society of Wisconsin Curator 

David Wooley. 

According to Christian Feest’s 

research of prophet sticks in ‘‘The 

Prophet Stick: Detective Stories from the 

Museum World’’ article in Journal Fu ̈ nf 

Kontinente, vol. 3, pp. 96–151, these 

prophet sticks were often physically 

part of bundles or cared for by war 

bundle caretakers and were clan-owned 

and inalienable to an individual. 

Cultural knowledge shared through 

consultation confirmed that these items 

were often part of bundles, which were 

clan-owned, and should be cared for by 

the current bundle keeper. The Decorah 

War Club/Prophet Stick is affiliated 

with the Ho-Chunk/Winnebago people, 

who are now the Ho-Chunk Nation of 

Wisconsin and the Winnebago Tribe of 

Nebraska. 

Through consultation with the HoChunk Nation of Wisconsin and the 

Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska, it was 

confirmed that the Decorah War Club/ 

Prophet Stick is an object of cultural 

patrimony inalienable from the HoChunk and Winnebago peoples and 

needs to be reunited with the Decorah 

War Bundle. Those involved in 

consultation determined that the 

Decorah War Club/Prophet Stick should 

be returned to the Ho-Chunk Nation of 

Wisconsin. 

Cultural Affiliation 

The cultural item in this notice is 

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: anthropological 

information, folklore, geographical 

information, historical information, 

kinship, oral tradition, and expert 

opinion. 

Determinations 

Pursuant to NAGPRA and its 

implementing regulations, and after 

consultation with the appropriate 

Indian Tribes and Native Hawaiian 

organizations, the State Historical 

Society of Wisconsin has determined 

that: 

• The one cultural item described 

above has ongoing historical, 

traditional, or cultural importance 

central to the Native American group or 

culture itself, rather than property 

owned by an individual. 

• There is a relationship of shared 

group identity that can be reasonably 

traced between the cultural items and 

the Ho-Chunk Nation of Wisconsin and 

the Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska. 

Requests for Repatriation 

Additional, written requests for 

repatriation of the cultural item in this 

notice must be sent to the Responsible 

Official identified in ADDRESSES. 

Requests for repatriation may be 

submitted by any lineal descendant, 

Indian Tribe, or Native Hawaiian 

organization not identified in this notice 

who shows, by a preponderance of the 

evidence, that the requestor is a lineal 

descendant or a culturally affiliated 

Indian Tribe or Native Hawaiian 

organization. 

Repatriation of the cultural item in 

this notice to a requestor may occur on 

or after January 22, 2024. If competing 

requests for repatriation are received, 

the State Historical Society of 

Wisconsin must determine the most 

appropriate requestor prior to 

repatriation. Requests for joint
