Description
Human remains representing, at
minimum, one individual were removed
from Santa Fe County, NM. In the spring
of 1914, Willard Yager purchased these
human remains from Abraham
Spiegelberg, a Santa Fe antiquities
dealer. Spiegelberg told Yager the
human remains belonged to a Ute
Indian. When Yager died in 1929, he left
these human remains to Hartwick
College. The human remains consist of
a scalp lock and belong to an individual
of indeterminate age. No associated
funerary objects are present.

Indio by Thomas King. (UCR NAGPRA
Repatriation Coordinator Megan
Murphy contacted King, but he did not
remember the excavation. King
suggested that the excavation might
have been an unplanned salvage project
requested by an Indian Tribe—perhaps
the Torres Martinez Desert Cahuilla
Indians, California—when the Tribe
heard that a cremation had been
disturbed by nearby construction.)
Markings on the bags from the
excavation indicate that this cremation
was removed from ‘‘48th + Jefferson—
Indio,’’ which UCR NAGPRA Program
Staff believe connotes the crossing of
Avenue 48 and Jefferson Street in Indio.
The site identification, ‘‘CV–126,’’ is
consistent with the system used by the
UCR Archaeological Research Unit in
1970s for work in the Coachella Valley.
The collection is identified as accession
#47 in the UCR Archaeological Curation
Unit. The four lots of associated
funerary objects are one lot consisting of
shells, one lot consisting of charcoal,
one lot consisting of soil and sand, and
one lot consisting of geological
materials.
Human remains representing, at
minimum, two individuals were
removed from Riverside County,
California. In 1972, the cremated human
remains belonging to two Native
American juveniles, together with
associated funerary objects, were
removed from archeological site CA–
RIV–273 (CV–139) during an
investigation by the UCR Archaeological
Research Unit led by Phillip Wilke. This
site was reported to have been located
near the historic village of Toro, to
which many living members of the
Torres Martinez Desert Cahuilla Indians,
California can trace direct ancestry.
Tribal members of the Torres-Martinez
reservation had reportedly been long
aware of a surface scatter of objects that
they identified as funerary in nature.
According to ethnographic accounts and
archeological evidence, the burials
likely date to the early 19th century.
Although the human remains were
reportedly reburied by the Agua
Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians in
1990, Wilke and the UCR Anthropology
Department did not transfer the
associated funerary objects, and they
remained at UCR. The 1,922 associated
funerary objects are 43 bobcat
phalanges, three animal bone beads, one
ceramic spindle whorl, 1,276 ceramic
sherds, one clay bead, one piece of
fabric, two samples of floral material,
three pieces of cordage, one fiber
basketry fragment, two fiber carrying net
fragments, 35 glass seed beads, 20 firecracked stones, eight flaked stone tools,

two ground stone tools, one steatite
arrow shaft straightener, one stone bead,
four metal objects, two lots consisting of
charred seeds, two faunal elements, one
sandal, 512 Olivella shell beads, and
one reconstructed clay olla.
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: archeological,
geographical, historical, kinship, oral
traditional, and expert opinion.
Determinations
Pursuant to NAGPRA and its
implementing regulations, and after
consultation with the appropriate
Indian Tribes and Native Hawaiian
organizations, the University of
California, Riverside has determined
that:
• The human remains described in
this notice represent the physical
remains of one individual of Native
American ancestry.
• The 1,926 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 part of the death rite or
ceremony.
• There is a relationship of shared
group identity that can be reasonably
traced between the human remains and
associated funerary objects described in
this notice and the Torres Martinez
Desert Cahuilla Indians, California.
Requests for Repatriation
Written requests for repatriation of the
human remains and associated funerary
objects in this notice must be sent to the
Responsible Official identified in
ADDRESSES. Requests for repatriation
may be submitted by:
1. Any one or more of the Indian
Tribes or Native Hawaiian organizations
identified in this notice.
2. Any lineal descendant, Indian
Tribe, or Native Hawaiian organization
not identified in this notice who shows,
by a preponderance of the evidence, that
the requestor is a lineal descendant or
a culturally affiliated Indian Tribe or
Native Hawaiian organization.
Repatriation of the human remains
and associated funerary objects in this
notice to a requestor may occur on or
after August 7, 2023. If competing
