National Park Service

Notice of Inventory Completion for

Native American Human Remains and

Associated Funerary Objects from

Minnesota in the Control of the St. Paul

District, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers,

St. Paul, MN

AGENCY: National Park Service

ACTION: Notice

Notice is hereby given in accordance

with provisions of the Native American

Graves Protection and Repatriation Act

(NAGPRA), 43 CFR 10.9, of the

completion of an inventory of human

remains and associated funerary objects

in the control of the St. Paul District,

U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, St. Paul,

MN.

A detailed assessment of the human

remains was made by U.S. Army Corps

of Engineers and Hamline University

Osteology Laboratory professional staff

in consultation with representatives of

the Sisseton-Wahpeton Sioux Tribe of

the Lake Traverse Reservation, the

Upper Sioux Indian Community of the

Upper Sioux Reservation, the Crow

Creek Sioux Tribe of the Crow Creek

Reservation, Lower Sioux Mdewakanton

Community, Shakopee Mdewakanton

Sioux community, Prairie Island

Community, Flandreau Santee Sioux

Tribe, and Santee Sioux Tribe of the

Santee Reservation of Nebraska.

In 1969, human remains representing

a minimum of 35 individuals were

recovered from the Gull Lake dam site

(12 CA37) near Brainerd, MN during

legally authorized archeological

excavations by the University of

Minnesota and the Minnesota Historical

Society prior to improvements at the

Gull Lake dam. No known individuals

were identified. The 1,060 associated

funerary objects include ceramic

vessels, ceramic sherds, pieces of lithic

debris, stone tools and tool fragments,

two wood charcoal samples, and

fragments of canine, beaver, bear, avian,

and moose bone.

Based on continuities of material

culture in ceramic styles and

construction, archeological evidence

indicates long-term occupation of this

area by the same cultural group, from

the archeologically-defined Brainerd to

Kathio-Clam River-Blackduck to

Psinomani. The Psinomani, present

during the Late Woodland and early

Contact periods, are generally regarded

as the ancestors of the Dakota. Historic

documents indicate that Eastern Dakota

bands (Mdewakanton, Wahpekute,

Sisseton, and Wahpeton), and related
