the remains were found ‘‘along the Gila 

Cliff Dwellings NM Trail, mid-way up a 

flight of steps and at the base of a large

In the Federal Register of September 

26, 1996 (61 FR 50505–50506, 

September 26, 1996) paragraph number 

6 is corrected by substituting the 

following paragraph: 

Based on the above mentioned 

information, officials of the National 

Park Service have determined that, 

pursuant to 43 CFR 10.2 (d)(1), the 

human remains listed above represent 

the physical remains of 47 individuals 

of Native American ancestry. Officials of 

the National Park Service have also 

determined that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C 

3001 (3)(A), the 15 objects listed 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 National Park 

Service have determined that, pursuant 

to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (2), there is a 

relationship of shared group identity 

which can be reasonably traced between 

these Native American human remains 

and associated funerary objects and the 

Hopi Tribe of Arizona; Pueblo of 

Acoma, New Mexico; Pueblo of Laguna, 

New Mexico; and Zuni Tribe of the Zuni 

Reservation, New Mexico. Further, 

officials of the National Park Service 

recognize that there is a relationship of 

shared group identity which can be 

reasonably traced between these Native 

American human remains and 

associated funerary objects and the PiroManso-Tiwa, a non-Federally 

recognized Indian group. 

Representatives of any other Indian 

tribe that believes itself to be culturally 

affiliated with the human remains and 

associated funerary objects should 

contact Steve Riley, superintendent, 

Gila Cliff Dwellings National
