Consultation
A detailed assessment of the human
remains was made by the Sternberg
Museum of Natural History professional
staff in consultation with
representatives of Tohono O’odham
Nation of Arizona.
History and Description of the Remains
In 1928, human remains representing,
at minimum, two individuals were
removed from Nogales, in Santa Cruz
County, AZ. Two ollas, each of which
contained the cremated remains of one
individual, were uncovered during an
operation to lower and pave a street.
The two ollas were donated by Mr.
James W. Haddock of Nogales High
School in 1929. No known individuals
were identified.
According to a letter from Mr.
Haddock, Dr. Dean Cummings of the
University of Arizona supervised the
excavation of the ollas. Dr. Cummings
identified the ollas as belonging to the
‘‘Pithouse Indians and about 2000 years
old.’’ Mr. Peter Steere, Tribal Historic
Preservation Officer for the Tohono
O’odham Nation Cultural Center &
Museum, identified the ollas as
Hohokam plain ware vessels that date to
A.D. 1000–1400. The Hohokam are
regarded as the ancestors of the Tohono
O’odham, and the Nogales area of
Southern Arizona is within the
geographic area covered by the Tohono
O’odham Nation under NAGPRA
repatriation.
