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 Western Washington University, 

Department of Anthropology, 

Bellingham, WA. The human remains 

were removed from archeological site 

45–SK–37, east of Dry Slough on Fir 

Island, Skagit County, WA. 

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. 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 Western 

Washington University, Department of 

Anthropology professional staff in 

consultation with representatives of the 

Swinomish Indian Tribal Community 

[previously listed as the Swinomish 

Indians of the Swinomish Reservation of 

Washington]. 

History and Description of the Remains 

On May 7, 1960, human remains 

representing, at minimum, three 

individuals were removed from site 45– 

SK–37 in Skagit County, WA, by faculty 

member Herbert C. Taylor. Taylor was 

supervising a field school excavation for 

Western Washington State College, now 

known as Western Washington 

University. No known individuals were 

identified. No associated funerary 

objects are present. 

The human remains have been 

determined to be Native American 

based on ethnographic, geographic, and 

archeological evidence. Suttles and 

Lane’s ethnography of the Southern 

Coast Salish is particularly relevant, as 

it contains a map featuring some of the 

larger villages in the region (Suttles and 

Lane, 1990: Figure 1). Comparison of the 

location of site 45–SK–37 with Suttles 

and Lane’s map indicates that it is in an 

area associated with Nookachamps, 

Kikiallus, and Swinomish. Many 

descendants of these cultural entities 

are today associated with the 

Swinomish Indian Tribal Community 

[previously listed as the Swinomish 

Indians of the Swinomish Reservation of 

Washington]. 

Determinations Made by Western 

Washington University, Department of 

Anthropology 

Officials of Western Washington 

University, Department of Anthropology 

have determined that: 

• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the 

human remains described in this notice 

represent the physical remains of three 

individuals of Native American 

ancestry. 

• 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 the Swinomish Indian 

Tribal Community [previously listed as 

the Swinomish Indians of the 

Swinomish Reservation of Washington]. 

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 should submit 

a written request with information in 

support of the request to Dr. Sarah 

Campbell, Western Washington 

University, Department of 

Anthropology, Arntzen Hall 315, 516 

High Street, Bellingham, WA 98225, 

telephone (360) 650–4793, email 

campbsk@wwu.edu, by May 23, 2022. 

After that date, if no additional 

requestors have come forward, transfer 

of control of the human remains to the 

Swinomish Indian Tribal Community 

[previously listed as the Swinomish 

Indians of the Swinomish Reservation of 

Washington] may proceed. 

The Western Washington University, 

Department of Anthropology is 

responsible for notifying the Swinomish 

Indian Tribal Community [previously 

listed as the Swinomish Indians of the 

Swinomish Reservation of Washington] 

that this notice has been published.

burden for this collection of 

information, including the validity of 

the methodology and assumptions used. 

(3) Ways to enhance the quality, 

utility, and clarity of the information to

(4) How might the agency minimize 

the burden of the collection of 

information on those who are to 

respond, including through the use of 

appropriate automated, electronic, 

mechanical, or other technological 

collection techniques or other forms of 

information technology, e.g., permitting 

electronic submission of response.

committee to evaluate all aspects of that 

institution’s animal care and use. To be 

in compliance, the NPS is responsible 

for managing and maintaining an 

Institutional Animal Care and Use 

Committee (IACUC) that has the 

experience and expertise necessary to 

assess and approve all research, testing, 

or training activities involving 

vertebrate animals on NPS managed 

lands and territories. All research, 

testing, or training projects involving 

animals taking place on NPS territories

3003, of the completion of an inventory 

of human remains under the control of 

the Maryland Center for History and

representative of the Pawnee Nation of 

Oklahoma, Elizabeth Blackowl, and 

archeologists Ronald Thomas and Tyler 

Bastian. 

History and Description of the Remains 

At an unknown date, human remains 

representing, at minimum, three 

individuals were removed from an 

unknown site in Nebraska. 

Subsequently, they entered the 

archeological collection of the Maryland 

Academy of Sciences. In 1975, the 

Maryland Academy of Sciences donated 

these human remains to the predecessor 

of the Maryland Center for History and 

Culture (the Maryland Historical 

Society) as part of a much larger 

collection of archeological artifacts. The 

accession ledger corresponding to these 

human remains reads, ‘‘Donated to Md. 

Hist. Soc. In box marked ‘Pawnee Bones 

from Nebraska.’ ’’ The fragmentary 

human remains are represented by 

crania, arm and leg bones, and belong to 

two adults and one juvenile. No known 

individuals were identified. No 

associated funerary objects are present. 

Determinations Made by the Maryland 

Center for History and Culture 

Officials of the Maryland Center for 

History and Culture have determined 

that: 

• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the 

human remains described in this notice 

represent the physical remains of three 

individuals of Native American 

ancestry. 

• 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 the Pawnee 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 should submit 

a written request with information in 

support of the request to Vivien Barnett,

by May 23, 2022. After that date, if no 

additional requestors have come 

forward, transfer of control of the 

human remains to the Pawnee Nation of 

Oklahoma may proceed. 

The Maryland Center for History and 

Culture is responsible for notifying the 

Pawnee Nation of Oklahoma that this 

notice has been published.
