Consultation
A detailed assessment of the human

professional staff in consultation with
representatives of the Agua Caliente

Caliente Indian Reservation, California.
History and Description of the Remains
In 1955, human remains representing,
at minimum, one individual were
removed from site RIV–156 in Riverside
County, CA. During a survey in Deep
Canyon, east of Palm Springs, Gordon
Redfeldt removed human remains and
cultural materials. In the Spring of 1956,
Redfeldt and Charles Rozaire donated
this collection to the UCLA Archaeology
Collections. No known individual was
identified. The 392 associated funerary
objects are 368 pieces of pottery (some
of which appear to be fire affected and
two are painted), four ceramic disc
fragments, one hammerstone, two core
tools, six scrapers, one projectile point
tip, one unmodified burned carnivore
mandible fragment, one unmodified
burned deer metapodial, and eight
unmodified burned faunal bone
fragments.
Determinations Made by the Fowler
Museum at the University of California,
Los Angeles

University of California, Los Angeles
have determined that:
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the

represent the physical remains of one
individual of Native American ancestry.
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(A),

remains at the time of death or later as

Reservation, California.
