Consultation
A detailed assessment of the human

History and Description of the Remains
In 1988, human remains representing,
at minimum, one individual were
removed from an undisclosed location
overlooking the Deschutes River in
Deschutes County, OR. An unnamed
family discovered the human remains
and turned them over to the BLM
without disclosing the exact location of
the site from which the human remains
were removed. No known individual
was identified. No associated funerary
objects are present.
According to the account of recovery
of these human remains, the skeletal
elements were discovered in a
rockshelter along the bank of the
Deschutes River. Rocks had fallen from
the ceiling of the shelter and covered
most of the human remains. Analyses by
the Bureau of Land Management
archeologist and authorities with the
Deschutes County Sheriff Office
determined that the skeletal remains
were Native American and preEuropean contact in date. The general
location of the discovery is well within
the ceded ancestral lands of the
Confederated Tribes of the Warm
Springs Reservation of Oregon.
