Consultation 

A detailed assessment of the human 

remains was made by the New York 

State Office of Parks, Recreation, and 

Historic Preservation professional staff 

in consultation with representatives of 

the Cayuga Nation; Seneca Nation of 

Indians [previously listed as Seneca 

Nation of New York]; Seneca-Cayuga 

Nation [previously listed Seneca-Cayuga 

Tribe of Oklahoma]; Tonawanda Band 

of Seneca [previously listed as 

Tonawanda Band of Seneca Indians of 

New York]; and the Tuscarora Nation 

(hereafter referred to as ‘‘The Consulted 

Tribes’’). 

History and Description of the Remains 

In the late nineteenth century, human 

remains representing, at minimum, two 

individuals were removed from the Old 

Arsenal/Arsenal Hill Site in Ontario 

County, NY. The human remains were 

excavated by William M. Locke and 

acquired by William Pryor Letchworth. 

The Letchworth collection was included 

in the gift of the Glen Iris Estate to New 

York State in 1907. The human remains 

include a skull belonging to an adult of 

unknown sex (LE.2010.7) and partial 

cranium vault fragments belonging to an 

adult of unknown sex (LE.2010.8). No 

known individuals were identified. No 

associated funerary objects are present. 

Based on the known context of 

recovery and a 2002 archeological and

osteological assessment, the human 

remains predate A.D. 1400 and are 

connected to earlier Owasco/Seneca. 

The provenience of the human remains 

is consistent with the historically 

documented territory of the Seneca. 

Consultation has further established the 

cultural affiliation of these human 

remains with the Seneca Nation of 

Indians [previously listed as Seneca 

Nation of New York] and the 

Tonawanda Band of Seneca [previously 

listed as Tonawanda Band of Seneca 

Indians of New York]. 

In the late nineteenth century, human 

remains representing, at minimum, one 

individual were removed from the Ball 

Farm/Totiakton Site, Monroe County, 

NY. The human remains were excavated 

by William M. Locke and acquired by 

William Pryor Letchworth. The 

Letchworth collection was included in 

the gift of the Glen Iris Estate to New 

York State in 1907. The human remains 

include the mandible, teeth, and cranial 

fragments belonging to a sub-adult aged 

6–12 of unknown sex. No known 

individual was identified. No associated 

funerary objects are present. 

Based on the known context of 

recovery and a 2002 archaeological and 

osteological assessment, the human 

remains date to ca. A.D. 1669–1687 and 

are connected to the earlier Seneca. Ca. 

A.D. 1669–1687, Totiakton was a Seneca 

village located along Honeoye Creek in 

the Town of Mendon, Monroe County, 

NY. The provenience of the human 

remains is consistent with the 

historically documented territory of the 

Seneca. Consultation has further 

established the cultural affiliation of 

these human remains with the Seneca 

Nation of Indians [previously listed as 

Seneca Nation of New York] and the 

Tonawanda Band of Seneca [previously 

listed as Tonawanda Band of Seneca 

Indians of New York].

Nation of New York] and the 

Tonawanda Band of Seneca [previously 

listed as Tonawanda Band of Seneca 

Indians of New York] (hereafter referred 

to as ‘‘The Tribes’’).

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 completion of an inventory 

of human remains under the control of 

the John Michael Kohler Arts Center, 

Sheboygan, WI. The human remains 

were removed from Sheboygan, 

Sheboygan County, WI. 

This notice is published as part of the

Consultation 

A detailed assessment of the human 

remains was made by the John Michael 

Kohler Arts Center professional staff in 

consultation with representatives of the 

Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska. 

History and Description of the Remains 

In the early 1990s, human remains 

representing at minimum, two 

individuals were removed from native 

burial sites in what is now Sheboygan, 

Sheboygan County, WI, by Rudolph 

Kuehne. After his death, in the late 

1920s, Kuehne’s widow sold the 

Kuehne collection—the remains of the 

two individuals and 5,816 objects—to 

the Kohler Foundation. The collection 

was packed away and not studied until 

1968, when it was examined by John 

Michael Kohler Arts Center staff while 

preparing an exhibit, at which time the 

human remains described in this notice 

were discovered. The human remains 

belong to two individuals of 

unidentified age and sex. No known 

individuals were identified. A Notice of 

Intent to Repatriate Cultural Items for 

the 5,816 objects was published in the 

Federal Register on June 10, 2020 (85 

FR 35438, June 10, 2020).
