SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is 

here given in accordance with the 

Native American Graves Protection and 

Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), 25 U.S.C. 

3003, of the correction of an inventory 

of human remains and associated 

funerary objects under the control of the 

Peabody Museum of Archaeology and 

Ethnology, Harvard University, 

Cambridge, MA. The human remains 

and associated funerary objects were 

removed from Burlington, Gloucester, 

and Mercer Counties, NJ, and Chester 

County, PA. 

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 museum, institution, or Federal 

agency that has control of the Native 

American human remains and 

associated funerary objects. The 

National Park Service is not responsible 

for the determinations in this notice. 

This notice corrects the minimum 

number of individuals and number of 

associated funerary objects published in 

a Notice of Inventory Completion in the 

Federal Register (72 FR 41524–41525, 

July 30, 2007). [The cultural affiliation 

determinations made in this Notice of 

Inventory Completion were 

subsequently corrected in the Federal 

Register (73 FR 58625–58626, October 

7, 2008, and 77 FR 46120–46121, 

August 2, 2012)]. Following further 

consultation and inventory review with 

the Delaware Nation, Oklahoma; 

Delaware Tribe of Indians; and the 

Stockbridge Munsee Community, 

Wisconsin, the Peabody Museum of 

Archaeology and Ethnology has 

determined that the minimum number 

of individuals should be increased by 17 

and the number of associated funerary 

objects should be increased by the 

addition of two previously unidentified 

associated funerary objects and four 

associated funerary objects for which 

cultural affiliation has now been 

established. Transfer of control of the 

items in this correction notice has not 

occurred. 

Correction 

In the Federal Register (72 FR 41524, 

July 30, 2007), column 3, paragraph 1 is 

corrected by substituting the following 

paragraph: 

In 1879, human remains representing a 

minimum of two individuals were recovered 

from an unknown location in Burlington 

County, NJ, by Michael Newbold during a 

Peabody Museum of Archaeology and 

Ethnology expedition led by C.C. Abbott. No 

known individuals were identified. No 

associated funerary objects are present. 

In the Federal Register (72 FR 41524, 

July 30, 2007), column 3, paragraph 2, 

sentence 1 is corrected by substituting 

the following sentence: 

Osteological characteristics indicate that 

these individuals are Native American. 

In the Federal Register (72 FR 41524, 

July 30, 2007), column 3, paragraph 5 is 

corrected by substituting the following 

paragraph: 

On October 2, 1894, human remains 

representing a minimum of 12 individuals 

were recovered from the Lalor Field site in 

Trenton, Mercer County, NJ, by Ernest Volk 

during a Peabody Museum of Archaeology 

and Ethnology expedition led by Mr. Volk. 

No known individuals were identified. The 

six associated funerary objects are one animal 

mandible with teeth, one notched stone, 

three stone implements, and one stone 

gorget. The animal mandible with teeth, 

notched stone, and stone implements were 

accessioned into the museum’s collection in 

1952 and the stone gorget was accessioned 

into the museum’s collection in 1895. 

In the Federal Register (72 FR 41525, 

July 30, 2007), column 1, paragraph 1, 

sentence 3 is corrected by substituting 

the following sentence: 

The polished stone gorget associated with 

the human remains, as well as artifacts 

recovered from the grave fill but not 

associated with the human remains, 

including lithic flakes and ceramic sherds, 

support this date. 

In the Federal Register (72 FR 41525, 

July 30, 2007), column 1, paragraph 2 is 

corrected by substituting the following 

paragraph: 

Between 1894 and 1895, human remains 

representing a minimum of four individuals 

were recovered from the Lalor Field site in 

Trenton, Mercer County, NJ, by Ernest Volk 

during a Peabody Museum of Archaeology 

and Ethnology expedition led by Mr. Volk. 

No known individuals were identified. No 

associated funerary objects are present. 

In the Federal Register (72 FR 41525, 

July 30, 2007), column 1, paragraph 3, 

sentence 3 is corrected by substituting 

the following sentence: 

The lack of known burials predating the 

Middle Woodland Period in the area of Lalor 

Field excavated in 1894–1895, the artifacts 

recovered from the grave fill but not 

associated with the human remains, 

including lithic flakes, bifacial implements 

and fragments, and ceramic sherds, the 

positioning of the deceased, and the lack of 

associated funerary objects support this date. 

In the Federal Register (72 FR 41525, 

July 30, 2007), column 1, paragraph 5, 

the following paragraphs are added at 

the end of paragraph 5: 

In 1894, human remains representing a 

minimum of seven individuals were likely 

recovered from the Lalor Field site in 

Trenton, Mercer County, NJ, by Ernest Volk 

during a Peabody Museum of Archaeology 

and Ethnology expedition led by Mr. Volk. 

No known individuals were identified. No 

associated funerary objects are present. 

Osteological characteristics indicate that 

these individuals are Native American. The

44046 Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 152 / Wednesday, August 11, 2021 / Notices 

interments most likely date to the Middle to 

Late Woodland periods (A.D. 0—1500). The 

lack of known burials predating the Middle 

Woodland Period in the area of Lalor Field 

excavated in 1894–1895 supports this date. 

Archeological evidence, museum 

documentation, and oral histories indicate 

that the human remains are from an area 

considered to be part of the aboriginal 

homelands and traditional burial areas of the 

Delaware people. 

Between 1894 and 1895, human remains 

representing a minimum of one individual 

were recovered from either the Lalor Field 

site or the Lowland site in Trenton, Mercer 

County, NJ, by Ernest Volk during a Peabody 

Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology 

expedition led by Mr. Volk. No known 

individuals were identified. No associated 

funerary objects are present. 

Osteological characteristics indicate that 

this individual is Native American. The 

interment most likely dates to the Middle to 

Late Woodland periods (A.D. 0—1500). The 

lack of known burials predating the Middle 

Woodland Period in the area of Lalor Field 

excavated in 1894–1895 or in the area of the 

Lowland site excavated in 1895 supports this 

date. Archeological evidence, museum 

documentation, and oral histories indicate 

that the human remains are from an area 

considered to be part of the aboriginal 

homelands and traditional burial areas of the 

Delaware people. 

In 1909, human remains representing a 

minimum of one individual were likely 

recovered from the A.K. Rowan Farm site in 

Trenton, Mercer County, NJ, by Ernest Volk 

during a Peabody Museum of Archaeology 

and Ethnology expedition led by Mr. Volk. 

No known individuals were identified. No 

associated funerary objects are present. 

Osteological characteristics indicate that 

this individual is Native American. The 

interment most likely dates to the Late 

Woodland or Contact Periods (900–1700 

A.D.). The lack of known burials likely 

predating the Late Woodland Period in the 

area of the A.K. Rowan Farm site excavated 

in 1909, associated funerary objects in known 

burial contexts from 1909 at the A.K. Rowan 

Farm site, stratigraphic context and burial 

positioning, and artifacts recovered from the 

grave fill but not associated with human 

remains support this date. Archeological 

evidence, museum documentation, and oral 

histories indicate that the human remains are 

from an area considered to be part of the 

aboriginal homelands and traditional burial 

areas of the Delaware people. 

Between 1886 and 1887, human remains 

representing a minimum of three individuals 

were recovered from an ‘‘Indian Burial 

Ground’’ on Lalor Farm in Trenton, Mercer 

County, NJ, by C.C. Abbott during a Peabody 

Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology 

expedition led by Dr. Abbott. No known 

individuals were identified. The associated 

funerary objects are two dog teeth and one 

dog jaw. The dog jaw is not in the possession 

or control of the Peabody Museum of 

Archaeology and Ethnology. 

Osteological characteristics indicate that 

this individual is Native American. The 

interment most likely dates to the Late 

Woodland Period (900–1500 A.D.). Dog 

burials occur throughout the northeastern 

United States from the Late Archaic through 

Contact Periods (B.C. 4000–1600 A.D.) both 

independently and accompanying human 

burials. In the Delaware Valley and other 

areas historically inhabited by the Delaware 

people, dog burials in association with 

human remains are most frequent in the Late 

Woodland Period. The placement of the 

remains of a dog with the three individuals 

in this burial supports this date. 

Archeological evidence, museum 

documentation, and oral histories indicate 

that the human remains are from an area 

considered to be part of the aboriginal 

homelands and traditional burial areas of the 

Delaware people. 

Between 1892 and 1894, human remains 

representing a minimum of one individual 

were recovered from the Dutch Trader’s 

House site on Burlington Island in 

Burlington, Burlington County, New Jersey, 

by C.C. Abbott. No known individuals were 

identified. The four associated funerary 

objects are one cattle bone and three 

fragments of white-tailed deer bones. 

Osteological characteristics indicate that 

this individual is Native American. This 

interment most likely dates to the Contact or 

Historic period (post-A.D. 1500) and the 

associated funerary objects recovered with 

the human remains support this date. 

Archeological evidence, museum 

documentation, and oral histories indicate 

that the human remains are from an area 

considered to be part of the aboriginal 

homelands and traditional burial areas of the 

Delaware people. 

In the Federal Register (72 FR 41525, 

July 30, 2007), column 2, paragraph 1, 

sentences 1 and 2 are corrected by 

substituting the following sentences: 

Officials of the Peabody Museum of 

Archaeology and Ethnology, Harvard 

University have determined that:
