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 Field Museum professional staff in consultation with representatives of the Hopi Tribe of Arizona and the Zuni Tribe of the Zuni Reservation, New Mexico. History and Description of the Remains In 1899, human remains representing, at minimum, 20 individuals were removed from Homolovi I in Navajo County, AZ. The individuals were excavated by J. A. Burt, an employee of the Field Museum, as part of an excavation occurring in the winter of [[Page 53088]] 1899-1900 sponsored by the Museum. No known individuals were identified. The 24 associated funerary objects are two mugs, three vases, eight bowls, one selenite disc, one circular stone, one stalagmite piece, and eight points. Homolovi I was occupied from around A.D. 1285 to 1390. Based on archeological research, scholarly research, consultation, and museum records, Homolovi I is affiliated with the Hopi Tribe of Arizona and the Zuni Tribe of the Zuni Reservation, New Mexico. In 1899, human remains representing, at minimum, 33 individuals were removed from Homolovi II in Navajo County, AZ. The individuals were excavated by J. A. Burt, an employee of the Field Museum, as part of an excavation occurring in the winter of 1899-1900 sponsored by the Museum. No known individuals were identified. The 49 associated funerary objects are seven faunal remains, 29 bowls, four awls, one selenite sheet, one bone whistle, one bone bead, one ladle, two water vessels, two jars, and one cloth fragment. Homolovi II was occupied from around A.D. 1350 to 1400. Based on archeological research, scholarly research, consultation, and museum records, Homolovi II is affiliated with the Hopi Tribe of Arizona and the Zuni Tribe of the Zuni Reservation, New Mexico. In 1899, human remains representing, at minimum, three individuals were removed from Homolovi I or Homolovi II in Navajo County, AZ. The individuals were excavated by J. A. Burt, an employee of the Field Museum, as part of an excavation occurring in the winter of 1899-1900 sponsored by the Museum. No known individuals were identified. No associated funerary objects are present.

Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(A), the 73 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 Hopi Tribe of Arizona and the Zuni Tribe of the Zuni Reservation, New Mexico.
