History and Description of the Remains

    Between April 7, 1968 and January 8, 1969, human remains 
representing, at minimum, four individuals were removed from site W-340 
(aka CA-SDI-17391) in San Diego, CA, by Emma Lou Davis. Davis, an 
anthropologist, conducted reconnaissance and salvage excavations on 
behalf of the Museum of Us (formerly the Museum of Man) throughout San 
Diego County in the late 1960s and early 1970s. This museum-sponsored 
excavation focused on salvaging archeological information after the 
landowner reported having unearthed lithic artifacts during excavation 
for a development. No known individuals were identified. The 848 
associated funerary objects are one modified faunal bone, 97 unmodified 
faunal bones, five bifaces, 10 choppers, 44 cores, nine core tools, 
five projectile points, 14 scrapers, 50 utilized flakes, 288 unworked 
flake, 47 manos, one metate, one mortar, one groundstone abrader, four 
pestles, one insect cocoon, three organic plants, 105 ecofacts, two 
modified shells, 120 lots of unmodified shell, five soil samples, nine

piece of organic yellow ochre, and six pieces of organic red ochre.
    Between October 23 and November 4, 1968, human remains 
representing, at minimum, one individual, were removed by Emma Lou 
Davis from W-380, an archeological site located in Poway, San Diego 
County, CA. This museum-sponsored excavation focused on salvaging 
archeological information after the landowner reported having unearthed 
many metates in her backyard over the years and also having encountered 
``pothunters'' on her property. The age and sex of this individual are 
unknown. No known individual was identified. The 177 associated 
funerary objects are 11 unmodified faunal bones, one ceramic pendant, 
seven undecorated ceramic body sherds, two undecorated ceramic rim 
sherds, two bifaces, five choppers, 19 cores, 11 core tools, one ground

W-384B, two archeological sites located in Julian, San Diego County, 
CA. These sites are referred to as Lamp Site A and Lamp Site B (after 
the property owners, who consented to the museum-sponsored excavation). 
The limited extant documentation identifies the ``Culture Type'' at 
these sites as ``Diegue[ntilde]o,'' which, if true, would date their 
origins to approximately 1,300 years before present. No known 
individuals were identified. The 840 associated funerary objects are 
three modified faunal bones, 144 unmodified faunal bones, four ceramic 
pendants, five ceramic pipe fragments, three decorated ceramic body

unworked flakes, 56 unworked flakes, four lots of utilized flakes, 75 
utilized flakes, 20 manos, one metate, five ground stone pendants, one 
discoid, one pestle, three shaft straighteners, 73 pieces of historic 
period glass, three lots of historic period metal, 35 pieces of 
historic period metal, five pieces of historic period organic material, 
four lots of charcoal, 22 pieces of organic material, 37 pieces of 
plant material, 29 pieces of wood material, three ecofacts, two

individual were removed from archeological sites W-460 (aka CA-SDI-
6084) and W-461 (aka CA-SDI-6085) in Poway, San Diego County, CA, 
during a surface collection conducted at the Carmel Mountain East 
Housing Development. The limited extant documentation identifies the 
``Culture Type'' at these sites as ``San Dieguito II,'' which, if true, 
would date their origins to approximately 12,000-9,000 years before 
present. Additional documentation indicates that W-461 is ``a probable 
extension of W-460'' (the two sites lie near each other). No known 
individual was identified. The 79 associated funerary objects are six 
decorated ceramic body sherds, one undecorated ceramic body sherd, 
three undecorated rim sherds, nine bifaces, one projectile point, 12

funerary objects are one unmodified faunal bone fragment, two ceramic 
pipe fragments, three ceramic vessels, two lots of mixed ceramic 
sherds, six decorated ceramic body sherds, 10 decorated rim sherds, 14 
undecorated ceramic body sherds, 105 undecorated rim sherds, two

geographical, ethnographic, anthropological (burial practices), and 
oral historical information, all the above listed human remains are 
connected to the Kumeyaay. Today, the Kumeyaay are represented by The 
Tribes.

Native American ancestry.
     Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(A), the 4,073 objects
