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 

funerary objects under the control of the 

Bowers Museum, Santa Ana, CA. The 

human remains and associated funerary 

objects were removed from the Kilowatt 

Mound near Wasco, in Kern County, 

CA. 

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 Bowers 

Museum professional staff in 

consultation with representatives of the 

Santa Rosa Indian Community of the 

Santa Rosa Rancheria, California. The 

Santa Rosa Indian Community of the 

Santa Rosa Rancheria, California, has 

provided written documentation 

including a map, a journal article, a 

Smithsonian bulletin, and images 

supporting their claim over the remains 

and burial objects. 

History and Description of the Remains 

Between 1927 and 1935, human 

remains representing, at minimum, one 

(1) individual were removed from the 

Kilowatt Mound near Wasco, Kern 

County, CA. The human remains were 

removed by an amateur archeologist and 

eventually donated to the Bowers 

Museum. The human remains are 17 

bone fragments. No known individuals 

were identified. The 32 associated 

funerary objects are 2 sets of shell beads, 

1 set of stone beads, 16 shell ornaments, 

1 stone implement, 4 potsherds, 5 burnt 

basketry textiles, 2 burial pole 

fragments, and 1 bird bone with paint 

and textile fragments. 

Based on the location in which they 

were found, the Bowers Museum has 

determined that the human remains are 

‘possibly Yokut.’ Along with the 

location, the funerary objects in the 

museum’s possession (i.e. burnt cloth, 

shells, etc.) that were buried with the 

individual appear to be in accordance 

with the practices of the Yokut at the 

time per the documentation provided by 

the Santa Rosa Indian Community of the 

Santa Rosa Rancheria, California. While 

a level of certainty cannot be 

determined because of the age of the 

remains, our records indicate they are 

‘‘possibly Yokut’’ because of the origin 

of the burials. 

Determinations Made by the Bowers 

Museum 

Officials of the Bowers Museum have 

determined that: 

• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the 

human remains described in this notice 

represent the physical remains of at 

least one (1) individual of Native 

American ancestry. 

• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(A), 

the thirty-two (32) 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 Santa Rosa Indian Community 

of the Santa Rosa Rancheria, California, 

based on the information provided by 

the tribe. 

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 Julie Perlin Lee, Vice 

President of Collections and Exhibition 

Development, Bowers Museum, 2002

History and Description of the Cultural 

Item 

In the early 1920s, a totem pole was 

removed by John Barrymore from 

Tuxican in Alaska, on the west coast of 

Prince of Wales Island. In 1981, it was 

given to Honolulu Museum of Art by 

Vincent and Mary Grant Price, who had 

obtained it from the estate of Barrymore. 

The one object of cultural patrimony is 

a Henya Tlingit totem pole, circa 1900, 

redwood with traces of polychrome, 

height 243⁄4 ft. 

In a letter dated January 21, 2013, Don 

Nickerson, Jr. wrote to Stephan Jost of 

Honolulu Museum of Art requesting to 

consult on the object. As President of 

the Klawock Cooperative Association, 

the federally recognized IRA tribe of the 

Henya Tlingit people of Klawock, AK, 

Mr. Nickerson stated that one of their 

traditional villages was Tuxican, AK, on
