History and Description of the Remains 

On March 30, 2009, human remains 

representing, at minimum, one 

individual were recovered in 

association with looting activity at 

Ferdinand State Park in Dubois County, 

IN. Conservation officers were 

contacted, and the Indiana Department 

of Historic Preservation and 

Archaeology (DHPA) assigned 

accidental discovery number 2009019 to 

the looting area and associated 

materials. An archeologist from the 

Indiana Department of Natural 

Resources, Division of Forestry, was 

then contacted to assess the looting. 

Based on the archeologist’s assessment, 

no other information could be 

determined, and it appeared that the 

looters quickly deposited/discarded the 

material as they were retreating. In July 

2013, the human remains were 

transferred to the ISMHS.

Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 108 / Tuesday, June 8, 2021 / Notices 30473 

The human remains consist of two 

teeth—a lower left molar and right first 

molar. The roots were gone 

taphonomically. The wear patterns 

indicate that teeth belong to an adult. 

Determinations of sex, pathology or 

other traits were not possible. No known 

individuals were identified. No 

associated funerary objects are present. 

At the ISMHS, staff from the 

University of Indianapolis assessed the 

human remains and determined that 

they could be Native American. Taking 

into account the archeological history of 

the area, the ISMHS has determined that 

the human remains are more likely than 

not Native American.

State Museum and Historic Sites 

Corporation, State of Indiana 

Officials of the Indiana State Museum 

and Historic Sites Corporation, State of 

Indiana have determined that:

Native American human remains and 

any present-day Indian Tribe.

Executive Orders, indicate that the land 

from which the Native American human
