of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia in 1921. In 1936, the human remains 
were loaned to the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and 
Anthropology. In 1997, the remains were formally gifted to the

No known individuals were identified. No associated funerary objects 
are present.
    Museum and collector documentation indicate that the human remains
