Description
In 1972, human remains representing,
at minimum, two individuals were
removed from the Trudeau Site (LMS
29–J–1) in West Feliciana Parish, LA, by
Jeffrey P. Brain as part of the Lower
Mississippi Survey Expedition. At that
time, the Survey Expedition was a
project of Harvard University. No
associated funerary objects are present.
Based on Native American ceramics,
glass beads, and European objects
recovered from LMS 29–J–1, the
Trudeau site is known to have been the
primary village and cemetery of the
Tunica people from 1731 through 1764.
Historical, ethnohistorical, and oral
historical evidence summarized by Mr.
Brain in his publication, Tunica
Archaeology, support the proposition
that the present-day descendants of the
18th century Tunica are the TunicaBiloxi Indian Tribe of Louisiana.
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: anthropological,
archeological, geographical, historical,
and oral tradition.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description
Between 1956 and 1957, human
remains representing, at minimum, one
individual were removed from the Jerry
Long Cave site in Ralls County, MO. In
1957, faunal remains from this site were
transferred to the Illinois State Museum
for analysis. During that analysis,
fragmentary human remains were
identified. No associated funerary
objects are present. These human
remains are likely pre-contact in date.
Between 1961 and 1962, human
remains representing, at minimum,
three individuals were removed from
the Tick Creek Cave site (23PH145) in
Phelps County, MO. In 1963, faunal
remains from this site were transferred
to the Illinois State Museum for
analysis. During that analysis,
fragmentary human remains were
identified. No associated funerary
objects are present. Tick Creek Cave
dates from the Late Archaic through the
Woodland period.
Sometime prior to 1967, human
remains representing, at minimum,
three individuals were removed from an

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description
Human remains representing, at
minimum, one individual were removed
from Riverside, CA. In 1980, members of
the UCR Archaeological Research Unit
and the Archaeological Resource
Management Corporation conducted
excavations ahead of the construction of
a flood channel in the La Quinta area of
the Central Coachella Valley. The sites
excavated included CA–RIV–1180, CA–
RIV–119, CA–RIV–158, CA–RIV–1174,
CA–RIV–1770, and CA–RIV–1838. CA–
RIV–1180, or the La Quinta Cove Site,
is an area well-known to contain
ancestral Cahuilla cremation burials.
The collections associated with the
excavations were subsequently curated
by the UCR Archaeological Curation
Unit. In 2021, during analysis of the
faunal skeletal remains in the
collections, human remains were
identified. Subsequent consultation
with tribal representatives from
multiple Cahuilla Bands resulted in the
identification of funerary objects within
the same collection. The 10 associated
funerary objects are one lot consisting of
ceramics, one lot consisting of lithics,
one lot consisting of metal, one lot
consisting of shell beads, one lot
consisting of animal bones, one lot
consisting of botanical material, one lot
consisting of fire-altered rock, one lot
consisting of geological materials, one
lot consisting of unmodified shells, and
one lot consisting of mineralogical
objects.
