SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is
here given in accordance with the
Native American Graves Protection and
Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), 25 U.S.C.
3003, of the completion of an inventory
of human remains and associated
funerary objects that are, variously,
under the control of the University of
California, Berkeley, Berkeley, CA, and
the California Department of Parks and
Recreation, Sacramento, CA. The human
remains and associated funerary objects
were removed from Marin County, CA.
This notice is published as part of the
National Park Service’s administrative
responsibilities under NAGPRA, 25
U.S.C. 3003(d)(3). The determinations in
this notice are the sole responsibility of
the museum, institution, or Federal
agency that has control of the Native
American human remains and
associated funerary objects. The
National Park Service is not responsible
for the determinations in this notice.
Consultation
A detailed assessment of the human
remains was made by the University of
California, Berkeley and the California
Department of Parks and Recreation
professional staff in consultation with
representatives of the Federated Indians
of Graton Rancheria, California and the
Guidiville Rancheria of California.
History and Description of the Remains
In March of 1955, human remains
representing, at minimum, 43
individuals were removed from sites
CA–MRN–80 and CA–MRN–78 in Marin
County, CA, by Adam Treganza. These
actions appear to have been undertaken
at the behest of Robert Power, a
PO 00000

restaurateur and collector. Power
divided the collection from these sites
between California State Parks and the
Lowie Museum, now the Phoebe A.
Hearst Museum of Anthropology. There
is no record of whether the collection
was intended to be managed by each
recipient separately or by both parties
jointly. Additional collections from CA–
MRN–80 were made by Fritz A. Riddell
on December 29, 1955, and by Albert B.
Elsasser in the spring of 1956. No
known individuals were identified. No
associated funerary objects are present.
In 1952 and 1953, human remains
representing, at minimum, 12
individuals were removed from site CA–
MRN–284, located in Tomales Bay State
Park, Marin County, CA, under the
auspices of the University of California
Archaeological Survey, by Aubrey
Neasham and Clement W. Meighan. No
known individuals were identified. The
21 associated funerary objects are one
lot of beads, one lot of buttons, one lot
of cartridge shells, one lot of
charmstones and charmstone fragments,
one lot of crystals, one lot of faunal
remains, one lot of figurines and
figurine fragments, one lot of glass
fragments, one lot of metal fragments,
one lot of mortars and pestles, one lot
of nails, one lot of pendants, one lot of
pestles, one lot of pipe fragments, one
lot of plant matter, one lot of porcelain
fragments, one lot of saws, one lot of
shells, one lot of sinkers, one lot of
stones, and one lot of worked stones and
stone tools/objects.
On February 15, 1955, human remains
representing, at minimum, one
individual were removed from an
unknown location on Angel Island in
Marin County, CA, by Ada´n Eduardo
Treganza and Albert B. Elsasser. No
known individuals were identified. The
two associated funerary objects are one
lot of buttons and one lot of wood
fragments.
Marin County has been the ancestral
territory of the Coast Miwok since time
immemorial. Based on geographical,
kinship, archeological, linguistic,
folkloric, oral traditional, and historical
information evidence, the present-day
Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria
are culturally affiliated with the Coast
Miwok in Marin County.
Determinations Made by the University
of California, Berkeley and California
Department of Parks and Recreation
Officials of the University of
California, Berkeley and California
Department of Parks and Recreation
have determined that:
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the
human remains described in this notice
represent the physical remains of 56

individuals of Native American
ancestry.

the 23 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

A detailed assessment of the human

Indians; Quapaw Nation (previously
listed as The Quapaw Tribe of Indians);
The Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma; and
The Muscogee (Creek) Nation (hereafter
referred to as ‘‘The Consulted Tribes’’).
History and Description of the Remains
In 1925, human remains representing,
at minimum, one individual were
removed from unidentified ‘‘mounds
near Pioneer’’ in West Carroll Parish,
LA. Subsequently, they were given to
the Louisiana State Museum. In 1926,
the Louisiana State Museum, under
Director Robert Glenk, donated the
human remains and associated cultural
items to The Charleston Museum, where
they have been curated since March of
1926. The human remains, consisting of
four skeletal elements, were examined
in 2019 by Dr. Suzanne Abel in
consultation with The Choctaw Nation
of Oklahoma. Dr. Abel determined that
these human remains probably belong to
a single individual. No known
individual was identified. The 37
associated funerary objects are five clay
poverty point objects, 16 pottery
fragments, three portions of pottery
vessels, six stone tools or projectile
points, four stone plummets or gorget
fragments, one stone net sinker, and two
rubbing stones.
Based on consultation with the Office
of State Archaeologist for Louisiana, the
clay objects and plummets are typical
Poverty Point period cultural materials
(1700–1300 BC). Seven pottery sherds
are likely from a single engraved, shelltempered vessel, probably Plaquemine
or Mississippian in age (after A.D.
1000). Eight sherds, Coles Creek Incised
or Mazique Incised, are dated A.D. 800–
1200. Three grog-tempered sherds
probably date to after A.D. 700. A nearly
complete shell tempered vessel, the
neck of a water bottle, and a partial
hybrid Coles Creek vessel all date to
sometime after A.D. 1000.
Information on the actual site location
and collection history is limited to a
single letter to The Charleston Museum
from the Louisiana State Museum in
1926. Determination of the cultural
affiliation of the human remains and
associated funerary objects is based
upon geographical, kinship, biological,
archeological, linguistic, oral
traditional, and historic information.
Determinations Made by The
Charleston Museum
Officials of The Charleston Museum
have determined that:
