Consultation
A detailed assessment of the human
remains was made by the Georgia
Department of Natural Resources,
Historic Preservation Division
professional staff in consultation with
representatives of the Cherokee Nation;
Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians; The
Muscogee (Creek) Nation; The Seminole
Nation of Oklahoma; and the United
Keetoowah Band of Cherokee Indians in
Oklahoma (hereafter referred to as ‘‘The
Consulted Tribes’’).
History and Description of the Remains
In December 2018, human remains
representing, at minimum, one
individual were removed from site
9JK317 in Jackson County, GA. A series
of 56 rock piles were documented
during investigations from 2016 to 2018
conducted by Stratum Unlimited on
private property located within the
River Glen subdivision. During
excavations, human remains were
encountered at the base of Rock Pile 01.
Work was halted, and Stratum
Unlimited contacted the Georgia
Department of Natural Resources,
Historic Preservation Division. After
consultation, no further work was
conducted at 9JK317. In January 2019,
the human remains and associated
funerary objects were transferred to the
Georgia Department of Natural
Resources, Historic Preservation
Division. The human remains consist of
61 small long bone fragments. No age or
sex of individual could be identified. No
known individuals were identified. The
33 associated funerary objects are three
lithic bifaces, seven lithic debitage, 21
lithic flakes, one Wolfskin/Late Lamar
ceramic sherd, and one sample of
residual soil.
The presence of one Wolfskin/Late
Lamar ceramic sherd and the geographic
location of the burial within the
historically documented territory of The
Muscogee (Creek) Nation support a
cultural affiliation with The Muscogee
(Creek) Nation.
Determinations Made by the Georgia
Department of Natural Resources,
Historic Preservation Division
Officials of the Georgia Department of
Natural Resources, Historic Preservation
Division have determined that:
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the
human remains described in this notice
represent the physical remains of one
individual of Native American ancestry.
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(A),
the 33 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 death rite or ceremony.

History and Description of the Remains
In 1979, human remains representing,
at minimum, one individual were
removed from an unidentified site in
Stanley County, SD. The human
remains were collected by a fisherman
from the Missouri River north of Ft.
Pierre, SD, and were turned over to the
Stanley County Sheriff Department of
Criminal Investigations for examination.
The Department determined the human
remains were historic, and transferred
the human remains to the USACE,
Omaha District to be stored at the Oahe
Dam. In 1985 or 1986, the human
remains were transferred to SARC, as
the Oahe Dam could no longer house
them. In 1990, the SARC facility
transferred the human remains to the
University of Tennessee-Knoxville for
examination by a physical
anthropologist, who concluded that the
human remains, consisting of a
cranium, belong to a child. The human
remains were transferred back to SARC
in 1993, where they are currently
housed. No known individuals were
identified. No associated funerary
objects are present.
