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 Neville Public 
Museum of Brown County, Green Bay, WI. The human remains and associated 
funerary objects were removed from an unknown location in South Dakota.
    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 Neville 
Public Museum of Brown County professional staff in consultation with 
representatives of the Yankton Sioux Tribe of South Dakota.

History and Description of the Remains

    Prior to 1970, human remains representing, at minimum, one 
individual were acquired by James Dobry Sr. from an unknown area of 
South Dakota, as part of a 36'' long necklace identified by him as 
being ``authentic Sioux with claws, beads, and teeth.'' In 1970, the 
human remains were donated to the Neville Public Museum of Brown 
County. No known individuals were identified. The 94 associated 
funerary objects which are all part of the necklace include 43 raptor 
claws and mammal canines, 20 glass and clay beads, 29 shells, and two 
non-human phalanges. Trade beads indicate this is an historic period 
necklace.

Determinations Made by the Neville Public Museum of Brown County

    Officials of the Neville Public Museum of Brown County have 
determined that:
     Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the human remains described 
in this notice represent the physical remains of 1 individuals of 
Native American ancestry.
     Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(A), the 94 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 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 and associated 
funerary objects should submit a written request with information in

Brown County, 210 Museum Place, Green Bay, WI 54303, telephone (920) 
448-7845, email [email protected], by December 17, 2015. 
After that date, if no additional requestors have come forward, 
transfer of control of the human remains and associated funerary 
objects to Yankton Sioux Tribe of South Dakota may proceed.

notifying the Yankton Sioux Tribe of South Dakota that this notice has
