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 Heard Museum, 
Phoenix, AZ. The human remains and associated funerary objects were 
removed from the Grand Canyon area, Mohave County or Coconino County, 
AZ.
    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 Heard 
Museum professional staff in consultation with representatives of the 
Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe of the Cheyenne River Reservation, South 
Dakota; Hopi Tribe of Arizona; Hualapai Indian Tribe of the Hualapai 
Indian Reservation, Arizona; and Three

Affiliated Tribes of the Fort Berthold Reservation, North Dakota.

History and description of the remains

    Prior to 1991, human remains representing, at minimum, one 
individual were removed from the Grand Canyon area, Mohave County or 
Coconino County, AZ. In 1991, the human remains were found in the Heard 
Museum collection and assigned the catalog number NA-SW-PR-T-3. Through 
consultation, it was determined that the individual was a male aged 35-
40 years, from the time period around A.D. 700-800. No known 
individuals were identified. The eight associated funerary objects 
include one mano (grinding stone), six potsherds and one iron ore 
fragment.
    Ancestral Pueblo people began making pottery in the Grand Canyon 
area starting around A.D. 500. The Hopi Tribe claims cultural 
affiliation to prehistoric cultures who populated the Grand Canyon 
area, including the Pueblo culture. Based on the associated funerary 
objects, Hualapai Tribe representatives stated that the remains may 
have come from the Grand Canyon area.

Determinations made by the Heard Museum

    Officials of the Heard Museum have determined that:
     Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the human remains described 
in this notice represent the physical remains of one individuals of 
Native American ancestry.
     Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(A), the eight 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 the 
Havasupai Tribe of the Havasupai Reservation, Arizona; Hopi Tribe of 
Arizona; and Hualapai Indian Tribe of the Hualapai Indian Reservation, 
Arizona.

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 David Roche, Director/CEO, Heard Museum, 2301 
North Central Avenue, Phoenix, AZ 85004, telephone (602) 252-8840, 
email [email protected], by July 18, 2018. After that date, if no 
additional requestors have come forward, transfer of control of the 
human remains and associated funerary objects to the Havasupai Tribe of 
the Havasupai Reservation, Arizona; Hopi Tribe of Arizona; and Hualapai 
Indian Tribe of the Hualapai Indian Reservation, Arizona, may proceed.
    The Heard Museum is responsible for notifying the Havasupai Tribe 
of the Havasupai Reservation, Arizona; Hopi Tribe of Arizona; and 
Hualapai Indian Tribe of the Hualapai Indian Reservation, Arizona, that 
this notice has been published.
