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 Bess Bower Dunn 
Museum of Lake County, Libertyville, IL. The human remains and

    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 Bess 
Bower Dunn Museum of Lake County professional staff in consultation 
with representatives of Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe of the Cheyenne 
River Reservation, South Dakota; Flandreau Santee Sioux Tribe of South 
Dakota; Ho-Chunk Nation of Wisconsin; Iowa Tribe of Kansas and 
Nebraska; Lower Sioux Indian Community in the State of Minnesota; 
Peoria Tribe of Indians of Oklahoma; Ponca Tribe of Indians of 
Oklahoma; Sac & Fox Nation of Missouri in Kansas and Nebraska; Sac & 
Fox Nation, Oklahoma; Sac & Fox Tribe of the Mississippi in Iowa; 
Spirit Lake Tribe, North Dakota; Upper Sioux Community, Minnesota; and 
the Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska. The following Tribes were also invited 
to participate but were not involved in consultations: Citizen 
Potawatomi Nation, Oklahoma; Iowa Tribe of Oklahoma; Omaha Tribe of 
Nebraska; Otoe-Missouria Tribe of Indians, Oklahoma; Pawnee Nation of 
Oklahoma; Ponca Tribe of Nebraska; Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation 
(previously listed as the Prairie Band of Potawatomi Nation, Kansas); 
Prairie Island Indian Community in the State of Minnesota; Santee Sioux 
Nation, Nebraska; Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community of Minnesota; 
Sisseton-Wahpeton Oyate of the Lake Traverse Reservation, South Dakota; 
Three Affiliated Tribes of the Fort Berthold Reservation, North Dakota; 
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 removed from Decorah, Winneshiek County, IA. In 1957, 
the human remains were at the Moody Museum in McGregor, Clayton County, 
IA. On May 23, 1957, the human remains and the projectile point were 
sold to Robert Vogel of the Lake County History Museum, Wadsworth, IL. 
No known individuals were identified. The one associated funerary 
object is a projectile point.
    The projectile point was embedded in the skull at the time of 
death. The individual might have lived about six months after being 
struck by the projectile point, based on evidence of bone growth 
resulting from normal healing. Decorah, IA, is described by tribal oral 
tradition as belonging to the Ho-Chunk Nation of Wisconsin territory. 
Decorah, IA, is also part of the ``Neutral Ground'' included in land 
cessions by the Ho-Chunk Nation to the United States Government in 1832 
and 1846.

Determinations Made by the Bess Bower Dunn Museum of Lake County

    Officials of the Bess Bower Dunn Museum of Lake County 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(3)(A), the one object 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 the Ho-Chunk 
Nation of Wisconsin.

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 
support of the request to Diana Dretske, Bess Bower Dunn Museum of Lake 
County, 1899 West Winchester Road, Libertyville, IL 60048, telephone 
(847) 968-3400, email [email protected], by June 20, 2018. After that 
date, if no additional requestors have come forward, transfer of 
control of the human remains and associated funerary objects to Ho-
Chunk Nation of Wisconsin may proceed.
    The Bess Bower Dunn Museum of Lake County is responsible for 
notifying the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe of the Cheyenne River 
Reservation, South Dakota; Flandreau Santee Sioux Tribe of South 
Dakota; Ho-Chunk Nation of Wisconsin; Iowa Tribe of Kansas and 
Nebraska; Lower Sioux Indian Community in the State of Minnesota;
