Description
Human remains representing, at
minimum, four individuals were
removed from an unknown county or
counties in California (Accession #s
AHUR 116A (Unknown Site), AHUR
116B (Unknown Site), AHUR 117
(Unknown Site), AHUR 118A (‘‘Arroyo
Rockshelter Site’’)). While the ancestral
remains of one of these individuals are
attributed to a named site, we are unable
to identify this site and, consequently,
we are unable to identify the county or
counties from which the human remains
were removed. The 10 associated
funerary objects are four moccasins (two
pairs), one lot consisting of faunal
bones, one lot consisting of pottery
sherds, an Elko side-notched point, a
Parowan point, one lot consisting of
stone flakes, and one lot consisting of
shells.
