History and Description of the Remains
Sometime during the 1920s and the
1930s, human remains representing, at
minimum, 114 individuals were
removed from unknown locations most
likely located within Sacramento and
Yolo Counties, CA. The remains were in
the possession of Anthony Zallio, a
private collector, who posthumously
donated his collection in 1951 to the
Department of Anthropology at
Sacramento State College, CA (now
California State University,
Sacramento).
Information regarding the site location
for the human remains and funerary
objects does not exist; however, research
done by professional staff at California
State University, Sacramento indicates
the human remains were most likely
removed from site locations in
Sacramento or Yolo counties, CA. No
known individuals were identified. The
11 associated funerary objects are two
shell beads, one lot of slate drills, two
projectile points, one shell, and five
Haliotis shell ornaments.
Anthony Zallio lived in Sacramento
during the 1920s and 1930s. He was
employed by Sacramento City College as
an instructor of several disciplines
including anthropology. Zallio
excavated archaeological sites in order
to obtain items for his private collection;
his documented area of interest
surrounded the Lower Sacramento
PO 00000
Frm 00084
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
Valley and the Delta Regions in
Sacramento and Yolo counties in CA.
Zallio also travelled internationally, and
collected objects and human remains
from around the world. Zallio
demarcated these items from the rest of
his collection by indicating the place of
origin in his personal ledger or upon the
object. It is believed that objects that
have not been marked or otherwise
noted in his personal ledger were
considered less noteworthy, and were
most likely removed from the lower
Sacramento Valley region.
Sometime during the 1920s and
1930s, human remains representing, at
minimum, one individual were removed
from an unknown location in Amador
County, CA. The exact location is
currently unknown. The human remains
were in the possession of Anthony
Zallio, a private collector, who
posthumously donated his collection in
1951 to the Department of Anthropology
at Sacramento State College, CA (now
California State University,
Sacramento). No known individuals
were identified. No associated funerary
objects are present.
Sometime during the 1920s and
1930s, human remains representing, at
minimum, one individual were removed

the possession of Anthony Zallio, a
private collector, who posthumously
donated his collection in 1951 to the
Department of Anthropology at

were identified. No associated funerary
objects are present.
Sometime during the 1920s and

approximately 3.5 miles southeast of Elk
Grove, in central Sacramento County,
CA. The human remains were in the
possession of Anthony Zallio, a private
collector, who posthumously donated
his collection in 1951 to the Department
of Anthropology at Sacramento State
College, CA (now California State
University, Sacramento). No known
individuals were identified. The four
associated funerary objects are Haliotis
shell ornaments.
Sometime during the 1920s and
1930s, human remains representing, at

original Zallio Collection or if they were
incorporated into the collection
sometime after it was donated. No
known individuals were identified. No

History and Description of the Remains
Sometime during the 1920s and the 1930s, human remains
representing, at minimum, 114 individuals were removed from unknown
locations most likely located within Sacramento and Yolo Counties, CA.
The remains were in the possession of Anthony Zallio, a private
collector, who posthumously donated his collection in 1951 to the
Department of Anthropology at Sacramento State College, CA (now
California State University, Sacramento).
Information regarding the site location for the human remains and
funerary objects does not exist; however, research done by professional
staff at California State University, Sacramento indicates the human
remains were most likely removed from site locations in Sacramento or
Yolo counties, CA. No known individuals were identified. The 11
associated funerary objects are two shell beads, one lot of slate
drills, two projectile points, one shell, and five Haliotis shell
ornaments.
Anthony Zallio lived in Sacramento during the 1920s and 1930s. He
was employed by Sacramento City College as an instructor of several
disciplines including anthropology. Zallio excavated archaeological
sites in order to obtain items for his private collection; his
documented area of interest surrounded the Lower Sacramento Valley and
the Delta Regions in Sacramento and Yolo counties in CA. Zallio also
travelled internationally, and collected objects and human remains from
around the world. Zallio demarcated these items from the rest of his
collection by indicating the place of origin in his personal ledger or
upon the object. It is believed that objects that have not been marked
or otherwise noted in his personal ledger were considered less
noteworthy, and were most likely removed from the lower Sacramento
Valley region.
Sometime during the 1920s and 1930s, human remains representing, at
minimum, one individual were removed from an unknown location in Amador
County, CA. The exact location is currently unknown. The human remains
were in the possession of Anthony Zallio, a private collector, who
posthumously donated his collection in 1951 to the Department of
Anthropology at Sacramento State College, CA (now California State
University, Sacramento). No known individuals were identified. No
associated funerary objects are present.
Sometime during the 1920s and 1930s, human remains representing, at

Zallio, a private collector, who posthumously donated his collection in

approximately 3.5 miles southeast of Elk Grove, in central Sacramento
County, CA. The human remains were in the possession of Anthony Zallio,
a private collector, who posthumously donated his collection in 1951 to

ornaments.

Determinations Made by the California State University, Sacramento
Officials of the California State University, Sacramento have
determined that:
Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the human remains described
in this notice are Native American based on physical and dental
morphology, the condition of the human remains, and the funerary
objects found in association.
Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the human remains described
in this notice represent the physical remains of 146 individuals of
Native American ancestry.
Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(A), the 16 objects described
in this notice are reasonably believed to have been placed with or near
individual human remains at the time of death or later as part of the
