from Okaloosa County, FL. Clarence B. 

Moore disturbed and removed burials 

from the site that he called Mound at 

Walton Camp, also known as Fort 

Walton Temple Mound (8OK6). Moore 

transferred the human remains, 

representing one adult of indeterminate 

age and sex, to the Robert S. Peabody 

Institute of Archaeology (then called the 

Department of Archaeology, Phillips 

Academy) in 1901. The 13 associated 

funerary objects are four lots of stone 

celts; one stone disk; one lot of shell 

ornaments; one lot of bone perforators; 

three lots of chipped stone points; one 

hematite bar; one ceramic vessel; and 

one lot of medium sized shell beads and 

fragments. 

Cultural Affiliation 

The human remains and associated 

funerary objects in this notice are 

connected to one or more identifiable 

earlier groups, tribes, peoples, or

shared group identity between the

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: archeological 

information, geographical information,

representatives. 

Determinations 

Pursuant to NAGPRA and its

Institute of Archaeology has determined 

that: 

• The human remains described in

remains of one individual of Native 

American ancestry.

notice are reasonably believed to have 

been placed with or near individual

Choctaw Indians; Mississippi Band of 

Choctaw Indians; Seminole Tribe of 

Florida; and The Choctaw Nation of
