In 1983, human remains representing
a minimum of one individual were
removed from archeological site CASDI–4358 (W–108/954), Carlsbad
(Encinitas Quadrangle), San Diego
County, CA, as part of an archeological
excavation performed in compliance
with the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA). On June 29, 2007,
the collection was accessioned by the
San Diego Archaeological Center, and
was assessed for objects eligible for
repatriation in accordance with
NAGPRA. No known individual was
identified. No associated funerary
objects are present.
In 1987 and 1988, human remains
representing a minimum of one
individual were removed from
archeological site CA-SDI–4609 within
Sorrento Valley, San Diego (Del Mar
Quadrangle), San Diego County, CA, as
part of an archeological excavation
performed in compliance with the
California Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA). On June 29, 2007, the
collection was accessioned by the San
Diego Archaeological Center, and was
assessed for objects eligible for
repatriation in accordance with
NAGPRA. No known individual was
identified. The three associated funerary
objects are soil samples.
No lineal descendants have been
identified. Geographic affiliation is
consistent with the historically
documented Kumeyaay Nation
traditional tribal area. The burials have
been attributed to the proto-historic
period that has been associated with the
cultural antecedents of the Kumeyaay
Nation in the region.

Notice.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
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
in the possession of Texas Parks and
Wildlife Department, Austin, TX. The
human remains and associated funerary
objects were removed from Lake
Quitman, Wood County, TX.
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.
A detailed assessment of the human
remains was made by Texas Parks and
Wildlife Department professional staff
in consultation with representatives of
the Caddo Nation of Oklahoma.
In the 1960s, human remains
representing a minimum of one
individual were removed from a known
Caddo cemetery site (41WD60), at the
Quitman Lake Dam area in Wood
County, TX, by person(s) unknown. At
some point thereafter, the collection
came into the possession of the Wood
County Commissioners Court. On
January 14, 1976, the Wood County
Commissioners Court donated the
collection to the Texas Parks and
Wildlife Department. No known
individual was identified. The 22
associated funerary objects are 19

ceramic vessels, 2 arrow points, and a
group of ceramic sherds (approximately
2,249).
The Caddo Indians historically
occupied northeast Texas, northwest
Louisiana, southwest Arkansas, and
southeast Oklahoma. The Caddo have a
long history in northeast Texas, with the
earliest identifiable Caddo sites dating
to around A.D. 800, and developed
directly out of the Woodland period
populations of this region. The Caddo
Indians were forcibly removed from
Texas in the 19th century.
On July 6 and 7, 2005, Texas Parks
and Wildlife Department archeologists
and Caddo Nation representatives made
an assessment of the human remains
and associated funerary objects and
found the human remains and
associated funerary objects are affiliated
with the Caddo. Aside from one
untyped vessel, the complete vessels in
this collection have been identified as
LaRue Neck Banded (n=1), Womack
Engraved (n=1), McKinney Plain (n=2),
and Ripley Engraved (n=14), each of
which are associated with the Late
Caddo Period in northeast Texas.
Specifically, LaRue Neck Banded
ceramics have been dated to A.D.1430–
1680. Ripley Engraved ceramics date to
A.D. 1430–1680 and are typical of the
Titus Phase in northeast Texas. Perttula
(2004:401- 404) identifies Ripley
Engraved as a common ceramic in Titus
Phase burials and since these are
complete vessels (although in some
cases reconstructed) lends itself to this
interpretation. LaRue Neck Banded
ceramics are generally considered
utilitarian vessels, although better
examples of this ceramic type may have
been traded. Although LaRue Neck
Banded and McKinney Plain ceramics
are not specifically singled out as
mortuary items, their being relatively
intact and removed from what has been
identified as a Caddo cemetery indicate
that they were intentionally interred,
probably as a mortuary offering.
Officials of the Texas Parks and
Wildlife Department have determined
that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (9–10),
the human remains described above
represent the physical remains of at
least one individual of Native American
ancestry. Officials of the Texas Parks
and Wildlife Department also have
determined that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C.
3001 (3)(A), the 22 objects described
above 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. Lastly, officials of the Texas
Parks and Wildlife Department have
determined that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C.
3001 (2), there is a relationship of
