ADDRESSES: Wayne Challoner, Superintendent, Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument, P.O. Box 39, Crow Agency, MT 59022, telephone (406) 638-3201, email [email protected]. 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 correction of an inventory of human remains and associated funerary objects under the control of the U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service, Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument, Crow Agency, MT. The human remains and associated funerary objects were removed from Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument, Big Horn County, MT. 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 Superintendent, Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument. This notice corrects the cultural affiliation published in a Notice of Inventory Completion in the Federal Register (64 FR 13034-13035, March 16, 1999). Information provided by the Cheyenne and Arapaho Tribes, Oklahoma indicated that the human remains may not represent a Cheyenne individual as originally determined. A cultural affiliation study was completed which has reasonably traced a shared group identity between the Native American human remains and associated funerary objects and the Crow Tribe of Montana. Transfer of control of the items in this correction notice has not occurred. Correction In the Federal Register (64 FR 13034, March 16, 1999), column three, paragraph one, sentence three, is corrected by substituting the following sentence: Lastly, officials of the National Park Service have determined that, pursuant to 43 CFR 10.2 (e), there is a relationship of shared group identity which can be traced between the Native American human remains and associated funerary objects and the Crow Tribe of Montana. 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 Wayne Challoner, Superintendent, Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument, P.O. Box 39, Crow Agency, MT 59022, telephone (406) 638-3201, email [email protected], by February 27, 2020. After that date, if no additional requestors have come forward, transfer of control of the human remains and associated funerary objects to the Crow Tribe of Montana may proceed.
