phase) occupations identified. The
human remains include adults,
juveniles and children of both sexes. No
known individuals were identified. The
4,711 associated funerary objects
include 1 stone adze; 1 biface fragment;
17 bone awls; 1 bone fish hook; 1 stone
celt; 2 Little Bear Creek projectile
points; 1non-cortical flake; 2
unidentified projectile points; 4,680
shell beads; 3 shell gorgets/pendants; 1
stone discoidal; and 1 turtle shell net
gage.
From September of 1938 to January of
1939, human remains representing, at
minimum, 84 individuals were removed
from the Laws site (1MS100) on Pine
Island in Marshall County, AL, after
TVA purchased the land on April 21,
1937. Excavations began at the levee
adjacent to the river and proceeded by
both vertical slicing and horizontal
excavations. There appear to have been
at least four occupations at this site,
including a pre-ceramic period with
steatite vessels; a village using
limestone-tempered pottery during the
Flint River phase (A.D. 500–1000); a late
Mississippian occupation using shelltempered ceramics and rectilinear wall
trench structures (Crow Creek phase,
A.D. 1500–1700); and burials with EuroAmerican trade goods circa A.D. 1670–
1715. The human remains include
adults, juveniles and infants of both
sexes. No known individuals were
identified. The 249 associated funerary
objects include 1 bone awl; 1 canine
bone; 2 pieces of fired clay; 1 graphite
nodule; 1 modified bone; 241 shell
beads; 1 shell ear plug; and 1 shell
pendant.
From October to November of 1937,
human remains representing, at
minimum, 11 individuals were removed
from site 1MS121 on Pine Island in
Marshall County, AL, after TVA
purchased the site on April 19, 1937.
There were excavations in both the
village and adjacent mound. There are
no radiocarbon dates for this site.
Artifacts recovered from the site
indicate both a Woodland and
Mississippian occupation. The human
remains include adults, juveniles and
infants of both sexes. No known
individuals were identified. No
associated funerary objects are present.
At the time of the excavation and
removal of these human remains and
associated funerary objects, the land
from which the human remains and
associated funerary objects were
removed was not the tribal land of any
federally recognized Indian tribe. On
May 2, 2017, TVA consulted with all
federally recognized Indian tribes who
are recognized as aboriginal to the area
from which these Native American
VerDate Sep<11>2014

human remains and associated funerary
objects were removed. These tribes are
the Cherokee Nation, Eastern Band of
Cherokee Indians, and the United
Keetoowah Band of Cherokee Indians in
Oklahoma. None of these Indian tribes
agreed to accept control of the human
remains and associated funerary objects.
After further consultation, TVA has
decided to transfer control of the human
remains and associated funerary objects
to the Alabama-Coushatta Tribe of Texas
(previously listed as the AlabamaCoushatta Tribes of Texas); AlabamaQuassarte Tribal Town; Coushatta Tribe
of Louisiana; and The Muscogee (Creek)
Nation.

the time of excavation of the human
