DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR 

National Park Service 

Notice of Intent to Repatriate Cultural 

Items: Northwest Museum of Arts & 

Culture, Spokane, WA 

AGENCY: National Park Service, Interior. 

ACTION: Notice. 

Notice is here given in accordance 

with the Native American Graves 

Protection and Repatriation Act 

(NAGPRA), 25 U.S.C. 3005, of the intent 

to repatriate cultural items in the 

possession of the Northwest Museum of 

Arts & Culture, aka Eastern Washington 

State Historical Society, Spokane, WA, 

that meet the definition of unassociated 

funerary objects under 25 U.S.C. 3001. 

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 cultural 

items. The National Park Service is not 

responsible for the determinations in 

this notice. 

The funerary objects described below 

were excavated by Donald Collier, 

Alfred E. Hudson and Arlo Ford due to 

the construction of the Grand Coulee 

Dam and its reservoir (Lake Roosevelt) 

whose waters would soon cover the 

area. This undertaking was known as 

‘‘The Columbian Basin Archaeological 

Survey’’ or the ‘‘Collier, Hudson, and 

Ford Project.’’ It was a multiinstitutional venture involving the 

Eastern Washington State Historical 

Society (now Northwest Museum of 

Arts & Culture), University of 

Washington, and the State College of 

Washington (now Washington State 

University). It was also a multi-agency 

venture involving the Bureau of 

Reclamation, Bureau of Indian Affairs, 

Civilian Conservation Corps, and the 

Works Project Administration 

(including the National Youth 

Administration). In 1940, the Eastern 

Washington State Historical Society 

became the repository for the collection, 

as mandated by the Bureau of 

Reclamation. Portions of the land from 

which the funerary objects derive were 

non-Federal lands, and other portions 

were Federal lands at the time of 

removal. Moreover, the Federal lands 

fell under the management authority of 

several different agencies. 

Consequently, there has been a question 

of control over the collection. After 

several years of research, the Northwest 

Museum of Arts & Culture has been 

unable to determine additional specifics 

regarding the control of each site. 

Therefore, absent additional 

information, the Northwest Museum of 

Arts & Culture is assuming 

responsibility under NAGPRA with 

regard to publishing this Notice and 

repatriating the unassociated funerary 

objects to the culturally affiliated tribe. 

During the period July 1939 - 

September 1940, funerary objects were 

systematically removed from Site 2 (45– 

LI–27), Lincoln County, WA, by Donald 

Collier, Alfred E. Hudson and Arlo Ford 

due to the construction of the Grand 

Coulee Dam and its reservoir (Lake 

Roosevelt), and they were accessioned 

by the museum in 1940 (EWSHS 

Accession ι1027). The three 

unassociated funerary objects are one 

abalone pendant and two projectile 

points. 

During the period July 1939 - 

September 1940, funerary objects were 

systematically removed from Site 7A 

(45–FE–7), Ferry County, WA, by 

Collier, Hudson and Ford due to the 

construction of the Grand Coulee Dam 

and its reservoir (Lake Roosevelt), and 

they were accessioned by the museum 

in 1940 (EWSHS Accession #1027). The 

42 unassociated funerary objects are 7 

beaver tooth dice, 1 bone awl pendant, 

27 dentalia beads, 4 copper pendants, 1 

copper bracelet, 1 projectile point and 1 

bone awl. 

During the period July 1939 - 

September 1940, funerary objects were 

systematically removed from Site 24 

(45–FE–24), Ferry County, WA, by 

Collier, Hudson and Ford due to the 

construction of the Grand Coulee Dam 

and its reservoir (Lake Roosevelt), and 

they were accessioned by the museum 

in 1940 (EWSHS Accession #1027). The 

92 unassociated funerary objects are 7 

wooden burial markers , 1 dentalia 

fragment, 5 glass beads, 9 perforated 

bear claws, 1 carved beaver tooth, 3 

copper bells, 1 lot of burial fill, 22 

dentalia beads, 2 buckskin or leather

fragments, 2 antler digging sticks, 1 

abalone shell pendant, 2 scrapers, 2 

bone awls, 1 piece of matting, 1 flake, 

2 dentalia necklace fragments, 1 small 

box of dentalia beads, 1 bone needle, 1 

copper pendant, 18 rolled copper beads, 

6 dentalium, 1 piece of cordage, 1 long 

jadeite celt and 1 chipped flint 

fragment. 

During the period July 1939 - 

September 1940, funerary objects were 

systematically removed from Site 46 

(45–Stevens–46), Stevens County, WA, 

by Collier, Hudson and Ford due to the 

construction of the Grand Coulee Dam 

and its reservoir (Lake Roosevelt), and 

they were accessioned by the museum 

in 1940 (EWSHS Accession #1027). The 

78 unassociated funerary objects are 6 

pieces worked bone, 1 jadeite chip, 1 

jadeite celt, 44 bone implements, 3 

stone pipes, 3 projectile points, 3 schist 

scrapers, 1 mussel shell, 1 antler wedge, 

1 slate needle, 1 slate pendant, 1 pipe 

fragment, 1 bone awl, 1 slate object, 1 

lot of turgite paint material, 1 arrow 

shaft smoother, 2 hematite pieces, 3 

knives, 1 spear point, 1 antler and 1 

antler horn implement. 

During the period July 1939 - 

September 1940, funerary objects were 

systematically removed from Site 47 

(45–ST–47), Stevens County, WA, by 

Collier, Hudson and Ford due to the 

construction of the Grand Coulee Dam 

and its reservoir (Lake Roosevelt), and 

they were accessioned by the museum 

in 1940 (EWSHS Accession #1027). The 

64 unassociated funerary objects are 1 

copper bracelet, 7 projectile points, 6 

bone combs, 1 bone implement, 1 bone 

spearpoint, 2 bone whistles, 27 bone 

awls, 2 copper and shell pendants, 1 

spear point, 1 carved stone pipe, 1 

jadeite celt, 1 jadeite adze, 2 bone 

ornaments (possible combs), 1 bone 

flute fragment, 1 coiled basket, 1 

turquoise pendant, 1 dentalia, 2 abalone 

pendants, 3 glass beads and 1 arrow 

shaft smoother. 

The unassociated funerary objects 

described above are consistent with 

cultural items typically found in context 

with Native American burials in eastern 

Washington State. Furthermore, 

accession numbers, as well as field 

notes and journal entries, indicate that 

the cultural items were found in 

connection with human remains. 

Extensive museum documentation, the 

geographic locations of the sites, burial 

patterns, and consultation from the 

Confederated Tribes of the Colville 

Indian Reservation, Washington, verify 

that the cultural items were removed 

from sites that are within the aboriginal 

territory of the bands of Indians that 

now make up the Confederated Tribes of 

the Colville Indian Reservation, 

Washington. 

Officials of the Northwest Museum of 

Arts & Culture have determined that, 

pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(B), the 

279 cultural items 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 and are 

believed, by a preponderance of the 

evidence, to have been removed from a 

specific burial site of a Native American 

individual. Officials of the Northwest 

Museum of Arts & Culture also have 

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

3001(2), there is a relationship of shared 

group identity that can be reasonably 

traced between the unassociated 

funerary objects and the Confederated 

Tribes of the Colville Indian 

Reservation, Washington. 

Representatives of any other Indian 

tribe that believe themselves to be 

culturally affiliated with the 

unassociated funerary objects should 

contact Mr. Michael Holloman, 

Northwest Museum of Arts & Culture, 

Spokane, WA 99201, telephone (509) 

363–5337, before October 25, 2010. 

Repatriation of the unassociated 

funerary objects to the Confederated 

Tribes of the Colville Indian 

Reservation, Washington, may proceed 

after that date if no additional claimants 

come forward. 

The Northwest Museum of Arts & 

Culture is responsible for notifying The 

Confederated Tribes of the Colville 

Indian Reservation, Washington, that 

this notice has been published.

Notice of Intent to Repatriate Cultural 

Items: American Museum of Natural 

History, New York, NY 

AGENCY: National Park Service, Interior. 

ACTION: Notice. 

Notice is here given in accordance 

with the Native American Graves 

Protection and Repatriation Act 

(NAGPRA), 25 U.S.C. 3005, of the intent 

to repatriate cultural items in the 

possession of the American Museum of

meets the definition of unassociated

U.S.C. 3003(d)(3). The determinations in 

this notice are the sole responsibility of

this notice. 

In 1902, human remains representing 

a minimum of one individual were 

collected by Dr. Ales Hrdlicka from a 

cave in the vicinity of Sacaton, Pinal 

County, AZ, while Dr. Hrdlicka was a 

member of the Hyde Expedition, 

sponsored by the American Museum of 

Natural History. No 

known individual was identified. 

This individual has been identified as 

Native American based on the American 

Museum of Natural History’s catalog 

entry describing the remains as a ‘‘Pima 

... medicine man.’’ The two associated 

funerary objects were a pair of metal 

spurs. 

In 2006, the human remains and the 

metal spurs were repatriated to the Gila 

River Indian Community. Subsequently, 

the American Museum of Natural 

History discovered among its collections 

additional funerary objects associated 

with this repatriated individual, but not 

previously reported. Therefore, these 

additional funerary objects are now 

considered to be unassociated. The 32 

unassociated funerary objects are 

elements of 1 percussion musket (a 

barrel and trigger and a percussion 

lock); 1 leather bullet pouch and its 

contents (12 metal ball bullets, 3 spent 

percussion caps, 1 shell casing, 3 glass 

marbles, 1 piece of cloth and 1 lot of 

paper scraps); 1 metal flask; 1 teacup; 1 

saucer; 1 pressed metal spoon; 2 blue 

glass beads; 2 claws and 1 piece of sewn 

rawhide. 

The metal flask is painted green and 

has a knotted cloth plug. The tea cup 

and saucer are white glazed ceramic. 

The two beads are made of blue glass. 

The two claws are from a jaguar. The 

rawhide piece is sewn with a rawhide 

thong. 

The geographic location is consistent 

with the post-contact territory of the 

Pima, who are represented by the Ak 

Chin Indian Community of the 

Maricopa (Ak Chin) Indian Reservation, 

Arizona; the Gila River Indian 

Community of the Gila River Indian 

Reservation, Arizona; and the Salt River 

Pima-Maricopa Indian Community of 

the Salt River Reservation, Arizona. The 

presence of items such as metal spurs, 

a rifle and white ceramic teacup suggest 

a post-contact date for this burial. 

Officials of the American Museum of 

Natural History have determined that,
