based on the overall condition of the

Great Oasis habitation site (BP2162). 

At an unknown date, an unknown 

individual collected material from 

13LE136, Lee County, IA. In 1979, the 

unknown individual donated the 

collection to the Office of the State 

Archaeologist, University of Iowa 

(BP2167). In 1980, human remains from 

this site had been reported on and 

reburied by the Office of the State 

Archaeologist. In 2007, a small fragment 

of tooth enamel was found, and 

determined to be human, and to 

represent one individual. No known 

individual was identified. No associated 

funerary objects are present. 

The human remain from 13LE136 has 

been identified as Native American 

based on the possible association of the 

tooth enamel with the earlier reburied 

human remains (BP2167). These human 

remains cannot be dated or identified 

with an archeological context. 

The Native American human remains 

described above fall into two main 

categories – known archeological 

manifestations (Archaic, Woodland, and 

Great Oasis) and general prehistoric. 

Because of the antiquity of the human 

remains and the lack of identifiable or 

traceable cultural continuity, no tribal 

affiliation could be established for the 

Archaic, Woodland, or Great Oasis 

period human remains. The general 

prehistoric human remains are either 

from known sites lacking diagnostic 

materials, archeological context, or 

insufficient osteological evidence; or 

they are from unknown locations. 

Officials of the Office of the State 

Archaeologist, University of Iowa have 

determined that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 

3001 (9–10), the human remains 

described above represent the physical 

remains of a minimum of 329 

individuals of Native American 

ancestry. Officials of the Office of the 

State Archaeologist, University of Iowa 

also have determined that, pursuant to 

25 U.S.C. 3001 (3)(A), the 100 objects 

described above 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. Lastly, officials of the 

Office of the State Archaeologist, 

University of Iowa have determined 

that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (2), a 

relationship of shared group identity 

cannot be reasonably traced between the 

Native American human remains and 

associated funerary objects and any 

present-day Indian tribe. 

The Office of the State Archaeologist, 

University of Iowa administers the 

provisions in the Code of Iowa that 

provide for any human remains over 

150 years old to be reburied in a state 

cemetery. The Office of the State 

Archaeologist, University of Iowa and 

the State Historical Society of Iowa have 

in their possession the human remains 

of 329 Native American individuals 

from Iowa whose cultural affiliation is 

unknown, and 100 associated or 

possibly associated funerary objects. 

These human remains are considered 

‘‘culturally unidentifiable’’ under 

NAGPRA, 43 C.F.R 10.10 (g). Federal 

regulations currently preclude 

disposition of culturally unidentifiable 

human remains absent an overriding 

legal requirement or a recommendation 

from the Secretary of the Interior, 43 

C.F.R 10.9 (e)(6). In 2004, the Iowa 

Office of the State Archaeologist started 

to develop a process, in consultation 

with tribes with a historic interest in 

Iowa, for the disposition of culturally 

unidentifiable human remains from 

Iowa. The Native American Graves 

Protection and Repatriation Review 

Committee (Review Committee) is 

responsible for recommending specific 

actions for disposition of culturally 

unidentifiable human remains. 

In October 2004, the Iowa Office of 

the State Archaeologist, University of 

Iowa, the State Historical Society of 

Iowa, and the Office of the State 

Archaeologist Indian Advisory Council 

(a group composed of representatives of 

Native American tribes in and from 

Iowa) hosted a tribal conference where 

21 Federally-recognized tribes and 1 

non-federally recognized tribe were 

invited to develop the process for 

disposition of culturally unidentifiable 

human remains and associated funerary 

objects from Iowa in possession of the 

Office of the State Archaeologist, 

University of Iowa, and the State 

Historical Society of Iowa, in 

accordance with Iowa law (Code of Iowa 

263B.8). Final drafting of the process 

was conducted through on-going tribal 

consultation involving phone calls, 

mail, and email. 

On May 30–31, 2006, the process 

developed through consultation was 

considered by the Review Committee. A 

June 14, 2006, letter on behalf of the 

Review Committee from the Designated 

Federal Officer provisionally authorized 

the Iowa Office of State Archaeologist to 

proceed with the development of the 

process for disposition. In 2007, the 

Iowa Office of State Archaeologist and 

the tribes completed the NAGPRA 

process document. A March 25, 2008, 

letter from the Assistant Secretary for 

Fish and Wildlife and Parks, as the 

designee for the Secretary of the 

Interior, transmitted the authorization 

for the disposition according to 

provisions of the Code of Iowa 263B.8 

and the NAGPRA process document, 

subject to publication of a Notice of 

Inventory Completion in the Federal 

Register. This notice fulfills that 

requirement. 

Representatives of any other Indian 

tribe that believes itself to be culturally 

affiliated with the human remains and 

associated funerary objects should 

contact Shirley Schermer, Burials 

Program Director, Office of the State 

Archaeologist, 700 Clinton Street 

Building, University of Iowa, Iowa City, 

IA 52242, telephone (319) 384–0740, or

objects eligible for repatriation in 

accordance with NAGPRA. No known 

individual was identified. The one 

associated funerary object is an olla. 

Site CA-SDI–6669 is located on the 

U.S. Geological Survey topographic map 

of Poway, at the intersection of Sabre 

Springs Parkway and Poway Road near 

the City of Poway. This site falls within 

traditional Kumeyaay territory, and

1750. Feature 4, locus B had 

radiocarbon dates establishing 

occupation at 1000 B.C. 

From 1978 to 1981, human remains

from the collection were repatriated. In 

2006, reassessment of the collection was 

performed and the human remains from 

this site were identified. No known

individuals of Native American 

ancestry. Officials of the San Diego 

Archaeological Center also have 

determined that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C.
