In 1956, the human remains were transferred to Dr. Theodore Kazamiroff, NYU College of Dentistry. No known individuals were identified. No associated funerary objects are present. The age of the human remains cannot be determined from the available information. Forensic examination revealed diagnostic features of an individual with Native American ancestry.

History and Description of the Remains

    At an unknown date, human remains representing, at minimum, one 
individual were removed from an unknown site in Shinnecock Hills, 
Suffolk County, NY. In 1926, the town of Southampton donated the human 
remains, which consist of the cranial fragments of one adult, to the 
Museum of the American Indian, Heye Foundation. They were accessioned 
into the collection of the Department of Physical Anthropology of the 
Museum of the American Indian, Heye Foundation that same year. In 1956, 
the human remains were transferred to Dr. Theodore Kazamiroff, NYU 
College of Dentistry. No known individuals were identified. No 
associated funerary objects are present. The age of the human remains 
cannot be determined from the available information. Forensic 
examination revealed diagnostic features of an individual with Native 
American ancestry. Without any information about the site or age of the 
remains, no identifiable earlier group can be determined.
    Shinnecock Hills, which lies near the northeastern end of Long 
Island, is not included in any treaties, Acts of Congress, or Executive 
Orders that establish aboriginal land. The area is, however, within 
territory that was long recognized by the tribe, the town of
