    This notice is published as part of the National Park Service's 
administrative responsibilities under NAGPRA, 25 U.S.C. 3003(d)(3). The

previously identified as culturally unidentifiable were re-evaluated in 
consultation and determined to be culturally affiliated. Based on 
consultation and review of the original field records, associated 
funerary objects were added. Transfer of control of the items in this 
correction notice has not occurred.
