  • Great Basin Region Revised 2020
    Smithsonian Institution, National Museum of Natural History Repatriation Office Case Report Summaries Great Basin Region Revised 2020 Great Basin Bannock, 1992 INVENTORY AND ASSESSMENT OF NATIVE AMERICAN HUMAN Paiute, REMAINS FROM THE WESTERN GREAT BASIN, NEVADA Shoshone, SECTOR, IN THE NATIONAL MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY Washoe This is the first of two reports that will document the human remains in the National Museum of Natural History (NMNH) from the Great Basin region. This report focuses on the western half of the Great Basin, providing an inventory and assessment of the skeletal remains in the museum from the region circumscribed by the modern political boundaries of the state of Nevada. Documentation of the human remains from the western Great Basin was initiated in November 1991 in response to an earlier request from the Pyramid Lake Paiute of northwestern Nevada for the return of any historic Paiute skeletal remains and associated artifacts from their territory. In addition to the Pyramid Lake Paiute, other native peoples potentially affected by the findings of this report include other sub-groups of the Northern Paiute, the Shoshone, the Bannock, and the Southern Paiute. A total of 56 sets of remains in the Physical Anthropology division of the NMNH were identified as having come from the western half of the Great Basin, which is defined for purposes of this report as the state of Nevada. Forty of these skeletal lots were determined to date to the historic period, while 16 sets of remains are prehistoric in origin. In compliance with Public Law 101-185, these remains were evaluated in terms of their probable cultural affiliation.

The Escalante Valley SEZ American Indian study area includes plant and animal communities, geological features, water sources, historic events and the trails that would have connected these features. Southern Paiute and Goshute representatives maintain that, in order to understand Numic connections to the SEZ, it must be placed in context with neighboring connected places including the Milford Flats South and Wah Wah Valley SEZs and their associated cultural resources found in the larger study areas.

DAVIES* ABSTRACT It has been long recognized that a deep tension pervades federal American Indian law. The foundational principles of the field—on the one hand, the notion that tribes keep their inherent right of sover- eignty and, on the other, that the federal government has a power and duty to protect them—clash on their face. Despite years of criti- cism of this conflict, the two principles continue to coexist, albeit un- comfortably. Using the example of the Skull Valley Band of Goshute Indians’ controversial proposal to store high-level nuclear waste on their land, this Article revisits the tension in these doctrines, weighs prior proposals attempting to reconcile them, and concludes that, ul- timately, sovereignty and the federal trust are not reconcilable.

  • Our Utah Native American Communities Need Your Help. Indian Country Has Been Hit Hard by COVID-19
    Our Utah Native American communities need your help. Indian Country has been hit hard by COVID-19. Utah Tribal COVID-19 Relief is a joint group that has come together to immediately assist Native American Tribes in Utah. There are 8 federally recognized tribal nations in Utah: Confederated Tribes of the Goshute Reservation, Navajo Nation, Northwestern Band of Shoshone Nation, Paiute Indian Tribe of Utah, San Juan Southern Paiute, Skull Valley Band of Goshute, Ute Mountain Ute Tribe, and Ute Indian Tribe. Native Americans are disproportionately impacted by COVID-19. Tribal communities face challenges that make it difficult to combat COVID-19, such as housing shortages, overcrowding, lack of medical providers in rural areas, and food and water insecurity. The Navajo Nation has been particularly impacted with 2,373 positive cases and 73 confirmed deaths (as of 5/2/20). You can make a difference today. We are putting together resource materials and collecting the following items for the Navajo Nation: Disposable masks and cloth/fabric Paper products (paper towels, toilet masks paper, and tissue) Cleaning supplies, including Non-perishable food disinfectant wipes and spray Bottled water Liquid hand soap and hand sanitizer Baby necessities, including formula, Toiletries diapers, and wipes Thermometers Children’s items (educational materials and learning games) Donations will be collected through Fri 5/15. No contact drop offs can be made at the following locations: Wed 5/6 and 5/13 from 3-5pm at Lear & Lear, 808 E.
