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 Phoebe A. Hearst Museum of Anthropology, University of 
California, Berkeley, Berkeley, CA, that meet the definition of 
cultural item 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 Items

    In 1913, three cultural items were removed from a location near 
Korbel, Humboldt County, CA. The 3 cultural items are 2 sharpened hazel 
wood sticks (31 and 20 centimeters in length respectively) and 1 
sharpened, forked sprig of redwood (29 centimeters in length). These 
cultural items were removed from a redwood tree by L.L. Loud while 
conducting ethnological research for the University of California. 
Evidence presented by the consulting Indian tribes and ethnographic 
sources support the use of the tree and the cultural items to mark the 
boundary between Wiyot and Chilula territories.
    The cultural affiliation of the three cultural items is to the 
Wiyot, Whilkut, and Chilula as indicated by museum records, 
ethnographic sources, and consultation with tribal representatives.

Determinations Made by the University of California

    Officials of the University of California have determined that:
     Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001, the 3 cultural items described 
above meet the definition of cultural item and are subject to 
repatriation under NAGPRA.
     Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(2), there is a relationship of 
shared group identity that can be reasonably traced between the 3 
cultural items and the Bear River Band of the Rohnerville Rancheria, 
California; Blue Lake Rancheria, California; Cher-Ae Heights Indian 
Community of the Trinidad Rancheria, California; Hoopa Valley Tribe, 
California; and Wiyot Tribe, California (previously listed as the Table 
Bluff Reservation-Wiyot 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 claim 
these cultural items should submit a written request with information 
in support of the claim to Jordan Jacobs, Phoebe A. Hearst Museum of 
Anthropology, 103 Kroeber Hall, University of California, Berkeley, 
Berkeley, CA 94720-3712, telephone (510) 643-8230, email [email protected] by November 2, 2016. After that date, if no 
additional claimants have come forward, transfer of control of the 
cultural items to the Bear River Band of the Rohnerville Rancheria, 
California; Blue Lake Rancheria, California; Cher-Ae Heights Indian 
Community of the Trinidad Rancheria, California; Hoopa Valley Tribe, 
California; and Wiyot Tribe, California (previously listed as the Table 
Bluff Reservation-Wiyot Tribe), may proceed.

notifying the Bear River Band of the Rohnerville Rancheria, California; 
Blue Lake Rancheria, California; Cher-Ae Heights Indian Community of 
the Trinidad Rancheria, California; Hoopa Valley Tribe, California; and 
Wiyot Tribe, California (previously listed as the Table Bluff
