Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 174 / Monday, September 13, 2021 / Notices 50901 

Indians of Michigan; Pokagon Band of 

Potawatomi Indians, Michigan and 

Indiana; and the Prairie Band 

Potawatomi Nation [previously listed as 

Prairie Band of Potawatomi Nation, 

Kansas] were invited to consult, but 

they did not participate. Hereafter, the 

Indian Tribes listed in the section are 

referred to as ‘‘The Consulted and 

Invited Tribes.’’ 

History and Description of the Remains 

On an unknown date, human remains 

representing, at minimum, one 

individual were removed from a burial 

in Grundy County, IL. The human 

remains were previously at the Grundy 

County Historical Society. The Society’s 

records indicate the human remains 

may have been donated in the 1920s. In 

1998, the human remains were 

transferred to the Illinois State Museum. 

The human remains belong to a child 3– 

12 years old and of indeterminate sex. 

No known individual was identified. 

The four associated funerary objects are 

three round metal brooches attached to 

a braid of hair and one lot of fabric. 

The metal trade artifacts and fabric 

suggest a Late Historic date (ca. 1760– 

1820) for the burial. Based on these 

artifacts, historical records, and oral 

traditional information, these human 

remains are connected to the 

Potawatomi, Ho-Chunk/Winnebago, and 

Kickapoo, all of whom were in the 

Grundy County area during this time. 

Determinations Made by the Illinois 

State Museum 

Officials of the Illinois State Museum 

have determined that: 

• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the 

human remains described in this notice 

represent the physical remains of one 

individual of Native American ancestry. 

• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(A), 

the four objects described in this notice 

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. 

• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(2), there 

is a relationship of shared group 

identity that can be reasonably traced 

between the Native American human 

remains and associated funerary objects 

and the Citizen Potawatomi Nation, 

Oklahoma; Forest County Potawatomi 

Community, Wisconsin; Hannahville 

Indian Community, Michigan; HoChunk Nation of Wisconsin; Kickapoo 

Traditional Tribe of Texas; Kickapoo 

Tribe of Indians of the Kickapoo 

Reservation in Kansas; Kickapoo Tribe 

of Oklahoma; Match-e-be-nash-she-wish 

Band of Pottawatomi Indians of 

Michigan; Nottawaseppi Huron Band of 

the Potawatomi, Michigan [previously 

listed as Huron Potawatomi, Inc.]; 

Pokagon Band of Potawatomi Indians, 

Michigan and Indiana; Prairie Band 

Potawatomi Nation [previously listed as 

Prairie Band of Potawatomi Nation, 

Kansas]; and the Winnebago Tribe of 

Nebraska (hereafter referred to as ‘‘The 

Tribes’’).

of any Indian Tribe or Native Hawaiian

responsible for notifying The Consulted

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 and associated

Sam Noble Oklahoma Museum of 

Natural History, University of 

Oklahoma, Norman, OK. The human 

remains and associated funerary objects 

were removed from McCurtain County, 

OK. 

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. 

Consultation 

A detailed assessment of the human 

remains was made by the Sam Noble 

Oklahoma Museum of Natural History 

professional staff in consultation with 

representatives of the Caddo Nation of 

Oklahoma and The Choctaw Nation of 

Oklahoma. 

History and Description of the Remains 

In 1941, human remains representing, 

at minimum, 10 individuals were 

removed from the Clement 1 site 

(34Mc8) in McCurtain County, OK. This 

mound and midden site was excavated 

in 1941 by the Works Progress 

Administration, and the excavated 


lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1
50902 Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 174 / Monday, September 13, 2021 / Notices 

materials were transferred to the 

Museum the same year. The human 

remains include one fragmentary 

skeleton of an adult female, 35–50 years 

old; one fragmentary skeleton of an 

adult male, 35–50 years old; one 

fragmentary skeleton of an adult 

probable male, 35–50 years old; one 

fragmentary skeleton of an adult of 

indeterminate sex, 20–35 years old; two 

fragmentary skeletons of adults of 

indeterminate sex, each more than 20 

years old; one fragmentary skeleton of 

an adult of indeterminate sex, 35–50 

years old; two fragmentary skeletons of 

adults greater of indeterminate sex, each 

more than 50 years old; and one 

fragmentary set of teeth belonging to an 

adult of indeterminate sex and age. No 

known individuals were identified. 

The 1,103 associated funerary objects 

are: Four Avery Engraved type ceramic 

bowls, one Avery Engraved type 

ceramic bottle, 162 Avery Engraved type 

potsherds, two Emory Punctate type 

ceramic jars with castellated rims, one 

Simms Engraved type ceramic carinated 

bowl, 61 Simms Engraved type ceramic 

potsherds, six decorated ceramic bowls, 

one decorated ceramic jar, one 

decorated ceramic bottle, one decorated 

ceramic vessel with four applique nodes 

with rattles, one decorated ceramic 

vessel with four animal effigies on the 

rim, four undecorated ceramic bowls, 

one undecorated ceramic jar, one 

undecorated ceramic red olla vessel, 

two ceramic rattle fragments, 390 

decorated potsherds, 352 undecorated 

potsherds, three ceramic pipe fragments, 

31 small corner-notched projectile 

points, two Gary type projectile points, 

one chipped stone flake, one fragment of 

fire cracked rock, one stone celt, four 

pigment stones, one unmodified stone, 

two copper covered shell earspools, four 

faunal bone fragments, 17 shell beads, 

one engraved shell gorget, four engraved 

shell fragments, 26 shell fragments, four 

wood fragments, five charred corn cob 

fragments, one seed bead with sediment, 

two soil samples with possible textile 

matting, one charcoal sample from a 

vessel, and one daub fragment. 

While the Clement 1 site (34Mc8) 

includes both historic and prehistoric 

components, all the human remains and 

associated funerary objects listed in this 

notice belong to the prehistoric 

component. Based on an analysis of the 

diagnostic cultural materials from the 

site (chipped and ground stone, 

ceramics, bone tools, and ornaments), as 

well as radiocarbon dates obtained from 

more recent investigations there, the 

prehistoric component of the site dates 

to A.D. 1200–1500. Archeological, oral 

traditional, and post-contact European 

historical information reasonably show 

that a cultural affiliation exists between 

the earlier group connected to the 

human remains and associated funerary 

objects at the Clement I site and the 

present-day Caddo Nation of Oklahoma. 

Determinations Made by the Sam Noble 

Oklahoma Museum of Natural History 

Officials of the Sam Noble Oklahoma 

Museum of Natural History have 

determined that: 

• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the 

human remains described in this notice 

represent the physical remains of 10 

individuals of Native American 

ancestry. 

• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(A), 

the 1,103 objects described in this 

notice 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. 

• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(2), there 

is a relationship of shared group 

identity that can be reasonably traced 

between the Native American human 

remains and associated funerary objects 

and the Caddo Nation of Oklahoma. 

Additional Requestors and Disposition 

Lineal descendants or representatives 

of any Indian Tribe or Native Hawaiian 

organization not identified in this notice 

that wish to request transfer of control 

of these human remains and associated 

funerary objects should submit a written 

request with information in support of 

the request to Dr. Marc Levine,
