Consultation
A detailed assessment of the human
remains was made by Michigan State
University professional staff in
consultation with representatives of the
Seminole Tribe of Florida (previously
listed as Seminole Tribe of Florida
(Dania, Big Cypress, Brighton,
Hollywood & Tampa Reservations)) and
The Seminole Nation of Oklahoma,
hereafter referred to as ‘‘The Consulted
Tribes.’’
An invitation to consult was extended
to the Miccosukee Tribe of Indians,
hereafter referred to as ‘‘The Invited
Tribe.’’
History and Description of the Remains
In 1965, human remains representing,
at minimum, one individual were
removed from the Cedar Key State
Museum site, Levy County, FL. The
human remains (3383.1) were removed
by a Mr. Thompson from the grounds of
what would become the Cedar Key
Museum State Park. Until his death in
1959, this real estate was owned by St.
Clair Whitman. His family retained
ownership of the property until 1991,
when they donated it to the State of
Florida. In 1968, Mr. Thompson
donated the human remains and a lot of
associated funerary items to the
Michigan State University Museum. No
known individual was identified. The
one associated funerary object is a lot of
ceramic sherds (3383.2).
On an unknown date, human remains
representing, at minimum, one
individual were removed from Palma
Sola, shell mound cemetery, Manatee
County, FL. The human remains (6506
CW) were acquired by Eugene Davis. On
an unknown date, Mr. Davis donated
the human remains to the Chamberlain
Memorial Museum, founded in 1916 by
Mr. Edward K. Warren and located in
Three Oaks, Michigan. In September of
1952, Michigan State College Museum
(now the Michigan State University
Museum) acquired the contents of the
Chamberlain Memorial Museum from
Fred P. Warren, President of the Board
of Trustees of the E. K. Warren
Foundation. In 2019, the human
remains in this notice, which were
included in the 1952 acquisition, were
discovered in the Michigan State
University Forensic Anthropology
Laboratory. No known individual was

evidence, expert opinion, geographical
evidence, historical evidence, and oral
tradition.
