SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is here given in accordance with the 
Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), 25 
U.S.C. 3005, of the intent to repatriate cultural items under the 
control of the U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service, 
Tuzigoot National Monument, Clarkdale, AZ, that meet the definition of 
unassociated funerary objects under 25 U.S.C. 3001.
    This notice is published as part of the National Park Service's 
administrative responsibilities under NAGPRA, 25 U.S.C. 3003(d)(3). The 
determinations in this notice are the sole responsibility of the 
Superintendent, Tuzigoot National Monument.
    This notice corrects the number of unassociated funerary objects 
published in a Notice of Intent to Repatriate in the Federal Register 
on June 25, 2021 (86 FR 33736-33737, June 25, 2021). During preparation 
for repatriation, it was discovered that two objects had been 
inadvertently omitted from the published notice. Transfer of control of 
the items in this correction notice has not occurred.

Correction

    In the Federal Register (86 FR 33736, June 25, 2021), column 3, 
paragraph 6 under the heading ``History and Description of the Cultural 
Items,'' is corrected by substituting the following paragraph:
    Between 1933-1934, 18 cultural items were removed from Hatalacva 
Pueblo in Yavapai County, AZ. The 18 unassociated funerary objects are 
14 bowls, one pendant, one cup, one necklace, and one awl.
    In the Federal Register (86 FR 33737, June 25, 2021), column 1, 
paragraph 1 is corrected by substituting the following paragraph:
    Between 1933-1934, 7,172 cultural items were removed from Tuzigoot 
Pueblo in Yavapai County, AZ. The 7,172 unassociated funerary objects 
are one bow, two basketry fragments, one spindle whorl, two axes, one 
crystal, one prayer stick, 19 dendrochronology samples, 14 jars, 84 
bowls, four miniature bowls, four pitchers, four ladles, one miniature 
jar, 6,969 beads, 12 pendants, 19 bracelets, three unworked shells, 
eight projectile points, six necklaces, five rings, four worked shells, 
one worked sherd, two worked bones, two drills, two unworked bones, and 
one pigment.
    In the Federal Register (86 FR 33737, June 25, 2021), column 2, 
paragraphs 1 and 2 are corrected by substituting the following 
paragraphs:
    Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(B), the 8,086 cultural items 
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 and are believed, by a preponderance of the 
evidence, to have been removed from a specific burial site of a Native 
American individual.
    Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(2), there is a relationship of shared 
group identity that can be reasonably traced between the 8,086 
unassociated funerary objects and the Hopi Tribe of Arizona.

Additional Requestors and Disposition

Hawaiian organization not identified in this notice that wish to claim 
these cultural items should submit a written request with information
