Federal Register / Vol. 65, No. 235 / Wednesday, December 6, 2000 / Notices 76283

Prior to 1871, human remains and

associated funerary objects were

removed by Assistant Surgeon George

N. Hopkins, U.S. Army, from a grave

near the Old Ponca Agency, Knox

County, NE. Surgeon Hopkins donated

these human remains and associated

funerary objects to the Army Medical

Museum in April of 1871. Surgeon

Hopkins’ letter of transmittal to the

Army Medical Museum identifies the

grave as Ponca.

The human remains were later

transferred to the Smithsonian

Institution by the Army Medical

Museum. The National Museum of

Natural History repatriated these human

remains to the Ponca Tribe of Indians of

Oklahoma and the Ponca Tribe of

Nebraska in 1998.

In 1876, 32 cultural items including 8

bracelets, 2 horn spoons, 1 bone scraper,

2 butcher knives, 7 thimbles, 1 bone

whistle, 6 beaded ornaments and loose

beads, 2 stones, 2 fragments of a powder

horn, and yellow paint were transferred

to the Peabody Museum of Archaeology

and Ethnology from the Army Medical

Museum.

Because the human remains

associated with these cultural items

were repatriated to the Ponca Tribe of

Indians of Oklahoma and the Ponca

Tribe of Nebraska in 1998, these cultural

items are considered unassociated

funerary objects.

Based on the above information,

officials of the Peabody Museum of

Archaeology and Ethnology have

determined that, pursuant to 43 CFR

10.2 (d) (2) (ii), the 37 cultural items

listed 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 and are believed, by a

preponderance of evidence, to have

been removed from a specific burial site

of a Native American individual.

Officials of the Peabody Museum of

Archaeology and Ethnology also have

determined that, pursuant to 43 CFR

10.2 (e), there is a relationship of shared

group identity which can be reasonably

traced between these items and the

Ponca Tribe of Indians of Oklahoma and

the Ponca Tribe of Nebraska.

This notice has been sent to officials

of the Ponca Tribe of Indians of

Oklahoma and the Ponca Tribe of

Nebraska. Representatives of any other

Indian tribe that believes itself to be

culturally affiliated with these cultural

items should contact Barbara Isaac,

Repatriation Coordinator, Peabody

Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology,

11 Divinity Avenue, Cambridge, MA

02138, telephone (617) 495–2254, before

January 5, 2001. Repatriation of these

cultural items to the Ponca Tribe of

Indians of Oklahoma and the Ponca

Tribe of Nebraska may begin after that

date if no additional claimants come

forward.

Dated: November 17, 2000.

John Robbins,

Assistant Director, Cultural Resources,

Stewardship, and Partnerships.
