SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

notice is published as part of the 

National Park Service’s administrative 

responsibilities under NAGPRA. The 

determinations in this notice are the 

sole responsibility of the Bureau of 

Indian Affairs and additional 

information on the determinations in

Abstract of Information Available 

A total of one cultural item has been 

requested for repatriation. The one 

object of cultural patrimony is a basket. 

The cultural item was acquired by the 

BIA at an unknown date, probably 

1970s, and was on exhibit at the BIA 

Cherokee Agency for more than 30 

years. Acquisition of the basket is 

unknown, but local community 

members recall the Agency office used 

the basket to transport infants from the 

hospital to the Agency office where they 

would be placed for adoption to nonNative families. 

Determinations 

The Bureau of Indian Affairs has 

determined that: 

• The one object of cultural 

patrimony described in this notice has 

ongoing historical, traditional, or 

cultural importance central to the 

Native American group, including any 

constituent sub-group (such as a band, 

clan, lineage, ceremonial society, or 

other subdivision), according to the 

Native American traditional knowledge 

of an Indian Tribe or Native Hawaiian 

organization. 

• There is a reasonable connection 

between the cultural item described in 

this notice and the Eastern Band of 

Cherokee Indians.

Additional, written requests for 

repatriation of the cultural item in this 

notice must be sent to the authorized 

representative identified in this notice 

under 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 February 18, 2025. If competing 

requests for repatriation are received, 

the BIA must determine the most 

appropriate requestor prior to 

repatriation. Requests for joint 

repatriation of the cultural item are 

considered a single request and not 

competing requests. The BIA is 

responsible for sending a copy of this 

notice to the Indian Tribes and Native 

Hawaiian organizations identified in 

this notice and to any other consulting 

parties.

Protection and Repatriation Act, 25 U.S.C.
