History and Description of the Remains
In October and November 2006,

is described as a dense scatter of lithic
and ceramic artifacts, associated with
the pre-European contact Native
American Alachua and St. Johns
cultures of the area (circa A.D. 700 to

archeological monitoring during the
development of Ficke Gardens at the
University of Florida. The archeologists
that found the remains contacted the
State Archaeologist. Based on
consultation with the State
Archaeologist, the district medical
examiner was asked to investigate the
discovery. The district medical
examiner, with assistance from the C.A.
Pound Human Identification Laboratory
and Dr. John Krigbaum, University of
Florida, Department of Anthropology,
determined that the remains were
Native American. On August 11, 2008,
the remains were transferred to the
Florida Department of State/Division of
Historical Resources. The remains of
this individual are 12 bone and tooth
fragments. No known individual was
identified. No associated funerary
objects are present.
In June 2007, human remains
representing a minimum of two
individuals were removed from site
8DA5918 at the White Rock Mine, in
Miami-Dade County, FL. Archeological
site 8DA5918 is described as a multicomponent black earth midden deposit
on a relict Everglades tree island,
associated with the Archaic and Glades
cultures of the area. The human remains
are believed to be from the Glades
period (circa 500 B.C. to A.D. 1500). The
remains of these two individuals are 28
bone and tooth fragments. No known

as a deep black earth midden with
material dating from several periods,
dominated by the pre-European contact
Native American St. Johns II culture of
the area (circa A.D. 900 to 1250). The
area where the human remains were
found may be a remnant burial mound
or cemetery. The remains of this
individual were transferred by the
consulting archeologist to the Florida
Department of State/Division of
Historical Resources for identification
pending reburial. Additional remains
were located in the same area during
subsequent investigation by another
archeological consultant, but left in
place. No known individual was
identified. No associated funerary
objects are present.
In July 2008, human remains
representing a minimum of two
individuals were removed from site
