SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 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 under the 
control of the Illinois Historic Preservation Agency, Springfield, IL, 
that meet the definition of objects of cultural patrimony 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 Native 
American cultural items. The National Park Service is not responsible 
for the determinations in this notice.

History and Description of the Cultural Item(s)

    In or around 1918, one cultural item were removed from Tama, in 
Tama County, IA. The item was given to Mr. John Hauberg by a member of 
the Meskwaki tribe. In 1939, this cultural item was donated to the 
Hauberg Indian Museum in Rock Island, IL, by Mr. John Hauberg. The 
object has remained in the collection of the museum since, and is now 
under the control of the Illinois Historic Preservation Agency at the 
Black Hawk State Historic Site. The one object of cultural patrimony is 
one Bear Claw Necklace.
    Through consultation with Mr. Johnathan L. Buffalo, a 
representative of the Meskwaki Nation and the Sac & Fox Tribe of the 
Mississippi in Iowa, it has been shown that the Bear Claw Necklace is 
an object of cultural patrimony, owing to its use as a symbol of tribal 
governance within the tribe. Mr. Buffalo has demonstrated that this 
object holds political, social, and ceremonial significance for the 
Meskwaki, and has ongoing historical, traditional and cultural 
importance to the tribe. Therefore, it has been determined that the 
Bear Claw Necklace falls under the definition of objects of cultural 
patrimony for the purposes of repatriation under NAGPRA.

Determinations Made by the Illinois Historic Preservation Agency

    Officials of the Illinois Historic Preservation Agency have 
determined that:
     Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(D), the one cultural items 
described above have ongoing historical, traditional, or cultural 
importance central to the Native American group or culture itself, 
rather than property owned by an individual.
     Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(2), there is a relationship of 
shared group identity that can be reasonably traced between the object 
of cultural patrimony and the Sac & Fox Tribe of the Mississippi in 
Iowa.

Additional Requestors and Disposition

    Lineal descendants or representatives of any Indian tribe or Native 
Hawaiian organization not identified in this notice that wish to claim 
these cultural items should submit a written request with information 
in support of the claim to Ryan Prehn, Illinois Historic Preservation 
Agency, 313 South Sixth
