History and Description of the Remains
At an unknown date, human remains
representing, at minimum, two
individuals were removed from Smyth
County, VA. Writing on one of the
skeletal elements (a cranium) states
‘‘Found in a dry cave near Saltville,
Smyth Co. VA.’’ The exact site is
uncertain but is possibly Site
44SM0028. The human remains have
been in the possession of William and
Mary’s Anthropology Department since
the 1960s and might have been acquired
by the College in 1963. Collectively, the
two individuals are represented by one
cranium, one cranial vault, and a set of
teeth embedded in soil. No known
individuals were identified. No
associated funerary objects are present.
The Monacan Indian Nation of
Virginia and the Cherokee Tribes
including Cherokee Nation, Eastern
Band of Cherokee Indians, and United
Keetoowah Band of Cherokee Indians,
consider Smyth County to encompass
their ancestral and historic territory.
This oral traditional information is
supported by archival, ethnographic,
archeological, and oral history studies.

History and Description of the Remains
In 1976, human remains representing,
at minimum, five individuals were
removed from the Puerco River Valley
(north of Interstate 40) in Bernalillo
County, NM, and given to the Maxwell
Museum by a surveyor for a proposed
water line by the Westland Corporation,
who owned the land at that time. The
only burial information provided by the
surveyor are general directional
distinctions. The human remains belong
to five adults of indeterminate sex. No
known individuals were identified. The
36 associated funerary objects are two
pottery sherds, one ground stone, one
charcoal fragment, two faunal bones, 12
beads, one lithic core, one lithic flake,
one faunal bone, one lot of faunal bone,
one ceramic sherd, one lithic biface,
three lithic flakes, and nine pottery
sherds.
The undecorated grayware ceramic
fragments associated with these
individuals suggest a date range for
these human remains between A.D. 750
and 1600. The combination of the
grayware pottery sherds, flaked lithics,
and beads show that these human
remains are Native American. Based on
geographical information, these human
remains and associated funerary objects
are culturally affiliated with the Pueblo
of Isleta, New Mexico; Pueblo of Sandia,
New Mexico; and the Ysleta del Sur
Pueblo (previously listed as Ysleta Del
Sur Pueblo of Texas).
