Description
In 1954, human remains representing,
at minimum, one individual were
removed from site 23PL1, commonly
referred to as the Renner Site, in Platte
County, MO. These human remains
(catalogue number: I.1995.268 (part of
2000.7)) were excavated with the private
landowner’s permission during an
archeological project conducted jointly
by the Kansas City Museum, the
University of Missouri, and the Kansas
City Archaeological Society. The human
remains—skull fragments—belong to a
subadult of unknown sex. No associated
funerary objects are present.
Cultural Affiliation
The human remains and associated
funerary objects in this notice are
connected to one or more identifiable
earlier groups, tribes, peoples, or
cultures. There is a relationship of
shared group identity between the
identifiable earlier groups, tribes,
peoples, or cultures and one or more
Indian Tribes or Native Hawaiian
organizations. The following types of
information were used to reasonably
trace the relationship: geographical,
historical, and expert opinion.

Description
The four cultural items listed in this
notice were removed from a site along
the American River (CA–SAC–157) in
Sacramento County, CA.
In 1981, as a part of an archeology
course, Richard Burrill, Cordova Senior
High School, removed archeological
items from CA–SAC–157. Subsequently,
these items were donated to the Folsom
Historical Society, and in 2016, they
were transferred to the UC Davis Shields
Library. The items include two lots of
unassociated funerary objects, only one
of which is present and accounted for in
the UC Davis collections. The
unassociated funerary objects are one lot
consisting of abalone shells and one lot
consisting of projectile points, flakes, a
scraper, a net weight, and a clamshell
disc bead.
On February 16, 1942, Jeremiah B.
Lillard, Harry Wanzer, and the
Sacramento County Board of Education
gifted archeological items from CA–
SAC–157 to the Phoebe A. Hearst
Museum at the University of California,
Berkeley. These items include one lot of
unassociated funerary objects consisting
of sinkers, mortars, and pestles.
On June 3, 1938, the Phoebe A. Hearst
Museum of Anthropology at the
University of California, Berkeley,
acquired archeological items from CA–
SAC–157 that were excavated by Robert
Fleming Heizer and the University of
California Field Party. These items
include one lot of objects of cultural
patrimony consisting of awls, ulnas,
points, pestles, mortars, shells, and
flakes.
Cultural Affiliation
The cultural items in this notice are
connected to one or more identifiable
earlier groups, tribes, peoples, or
cultures. There is a relationship of
shared group identity between the
identifiable earlier groups, tribes,
peoples, or cultures and one or more

Indian Tribes or Native Hawaiian
organizations. The following types of
information were used to reasonably
trace the relationship: anthropological,
archeological, folkloric, geographical,
historical, kinship, linguistic, oral
traditional, and other relevant
information or expert opinion.
Determinations
Pursuant to NAGPRA and its
implementing regulations, and after
consultation with the appropriate
Indian Tribes and Native Hawaiian
organizations, UC Davis and UC
Berkeley have determined that:
• The three lots of cultural items
described above are reasonably believed
to have been placed with or near
individual human remains at the time of
death or later as part of the death rite
or ceremony and are believed, by a
preponderance of the evidence, to have
been removed from a specific burial site
of a Native American individual.
• The one lot of cultural items
described above has ongoing historical,
traditional, or cultural importance
central to the Native American group or
culture itself, rather than property
owned by an individual.
• There is a relationship of shared
group identity that can be reasonably
traced between the cultural items and
the Wilton Rancheria, California.

this notice to a requestor may occur on
or after July 10, 2023. If competing
requests for repatriation are received,
UC Davis and UC Berkeley must
determine the most appropriate
requestor prior to repatriation. Requests

items are considered a single request
