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 under 
the control of the State Historical Society of Iowa, Iowa City, IA. The 
human remains were removed from the vicinity of Little Cheyenne River, 
ND.
    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. 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 State 
Historical Society of Iowa professional staff in consultation with 
representatives of the Assiniboine and Sioux Tribes of the Fort Peck 
Indian Reservation, Montana; Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe of the Cheyenne 
River Reservation, South Dakota; Crow Creek Sioux Tribe of the Crow 
Creek Reservation, South Dakota; Flandreau Santee Sioux Tribe of South 
Dakota; Lower Brule Sioux Tribe of the Lower Brule Reservation, South 
Dakota; Lower Sioux Indian Community in the State of Minnesota; Oglala 
Sioux Tribe (previously listed as the Oglala Sioux Tribe of the Pine 
Ridge Reservation, South Dakota); Prairie Island Indian Community in 
the State of Minnesota; Rosebud Sioux Tribe of the Rosebud Indian 
Reservation, South Dakota; Santee Sioux Nation, Nebraska; Shakopee 
Mdewakanton Sioux Community of Minnesota; Sisseton-Wahpeton Oyate of 
the Lake Traverse Reservation, South Dakota; Spirit Lake Tribe, North 
Dakota; Standing Rock Sioux Tribe of North & South Dakota; Upper Sioux 
Community, Minnesota; and the Yankton Sioux Tribe of South Dakota.

History and Description of the Remains

    At an unknown date, human remains representing, at minimum, one 
individual were placed in an envelope in a manuscript collection at the 
State Historical Society of Iowa research facility in Iowa City. The 
envelope contains human hair and on the outside has the following 
written description:

[[Page 13608]]

``Scalp Lock taken from the Indian who killed Capt. Jno Fielner Co A 
1st U.S.Cav Dakotah Ter by Henry N Berry.''
    On June 28, 1864, Captain John Feilner, 1st U.S. Cavalry, was 
killed on the Little Cheyenne River in Dakota Territory. Company A of 
the Dakota Cavalry soon arrived at the site and proceeded to seek and 
kill the three men of the Dakota Nation believed responsible for 
Feilner's death. This incident was reported the Dubuque Herald (July 
15, 1864) and the Sioux City Register (July 16, 1864), as well as in 
``The 1864 Sully Expedition, and the Death of Captain John Feilner,'' 
American Nineteenth Century History, Vol. 9, No. 2, June 2008, pages 
183-190.
    Henry N. Berry served in Company I of the Sixth Regiment of the 
Iowa Volunteer Cavalry, according to the Roster and Record of Iowa 
Troops in the Rebellion, Vol. 4. Company I was raised primarily from 
Johnson (Iowa City) and Scott (Davenport) counties. The muster roll 
provides the following information: ``Berry, Henry N. Age 18, Residence 
Iowa City, nativity Iowa. Enlisted September 25, 1862, as Second 
Sergeant, Mustered Feb. 2, 1863. Promoted Sergeant Major May 1, 1865. 
Mustered out Oct. 17, 1865, Sioux City, Iowa.''
    The Sixth Regiment of Iowa Volunteer Cavalry was commanded by 
Colonel D.S. Wilson from Dubuque, IA. The Sixth Iowa served in General 
Sully's punitive expedition against the Dakota following the 1862 
Dakota War in Minnesota. They served under Sully's command during the 
summer and fall campaign of 1864 (Report of the Adjutant General of 
Iowa, 1865, Vol. 2, pages 1358-1366). The Annals of Iowa (vol. 1864, 
no. 4, pp. 382-383) note H.N. Berry as one of several donors of ``war 
relic and specimens for the cabinet of natural history and 
curiosities.'' An 1867 catalog entry lists Henry N. Berry of Iowa City 
as donor of a ``collection of relics brought from the plains.'' The 
catalog entry goes on to describe some of the collection, but there is 
no specific mention of a scalp lock. It is reasonable to conclude that 
while not specifically mentioned in these early records, the source of 
the scalp lock was Henry N. Berry, and his service record places him in 
Dakota Territory at the time of the incident cited.

Determinations Made by the State Historical Society of Iowa

    Officials of the State Historical Society of Iowa have determined 
that:
     Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the human remains described 
in this notice represent the physical remains of one individual of 
Native American ancestry.
     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 the Assiniboine and Sioux Tribes of the Fort 
Peck Indian Reservation, Montana; Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe of the 
Cheyenne River Reservation, South Dakota; Crow Creek Sioux Tribe of the 
Crow Creek Reservation, South Dakota; Flandreau Santee Sioux Tribe of 
South Dakota; Lower Brule Sioux Tribe of the Lower Brule Reservation, 
South Dakota; Lower Sioux Indian Community in the State of Minnesota; 
Oglala Sioux Tribe (previously listed as the Oglala Sioux Tribe of the 
Pine Ridge Reservation, South Dakota); Prairie Island Indian Community 
in the State of Minnesota; Rosebud Sioux Tribe of the Rosebud Indian 
Reservation, South Dakota; Santee Sioux Nation, Nebraska; Shakopee 
Mdewakanton Sioux Community of Minnesota; Sisseton-Wahpeton Oyate of 
the Lake Traverse Reservation, South Dakota; Spirit Lake Tribe, North 
Dakota; Standing Rock Sioux Tribe of North & South Dakota; Upper Sioux 
Community, Minnesota; and the Yankton Sioux Tribe of South Dakota.

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 should submit a 
written request with information in support of the request to Jerome 
Thompson or NAGPRA Coordinator, State Historical Society of Iowa, 600 
East Locust, Des Moines, IA 50319, telephone (515) 281-4221, email 
jerome.thompson@iowa.gov, April 15, 2015. After that date, if no 
additional requestors have come forward, transfer of control of the 
human remains to the Assiniboine and Sioux Tribes of the Fort Peck 
Indian Reservation, Montana; Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe of the Cheyenne 
River Reservation, South Dakota; Crow Creek Sioux Tribe of the Crow 
Creek Reservation, South Dakota; Flandreau Santee Sioux Tribe of South 
Dakota; Lower Brule Sioux Tribe of the Lower Brule Reservation, South

the Lake Traverse Reservation, South Dakota; Spirit Lake Tribe, North 
Dakota; Standing Rock Sioux Tribe of North & South Dakota; Upper Sioux 
Community, Minnesota; and the Yankton Sioux Tribe of South Dakota may 
proceed.
    The State Historical Society of Iowa is responsible for notifying 
the Assiniboine and Sioux Tribes of the Fort Peck Indian Reservation, 
Montana; Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe of the Cheyenne River Reservation, 
South Dakota; Crow Creek Sioux Tribe of the Crow Creek Reservation, 
South Dakota; Flandreau Santee Sioux Tribe of South Dakota; Lower Brule
