In the 1960s and 1970s, American River Junior College (ARJC) conducted investigations at several sites in Placer and Yuba Counties (CA–PLA–2907, CA– PLA–2908, possibly PLA–38, and CA– YUB–05), which resulted in the collection of 12 cultural items. In 1977, the collections from these sites were transferred to California State University, Sacramento along with other ARJC collections. The 12 objects of cultural patrimony consist of the following individual lots: flaked stones; groundstones; modified bones; modified shells; modified stones; thermallyaltered rocks; unmodified stones; baked clay objects; floral remains; faunal remains; historic materials; and uncatalogued materials.

The object of cultural patrimony is one lot consisting of uncatalogued materials. Sometime during the 1920s and 1930s, Anthony Zallio, a private collector, collected two cultural items from sites in Placer County, CA. In 1951, Zallio’s collection was posthumously donated to the Department of Anthropology at Sacramento State College, CA (now California State University, Sacramento). The two objects of cultural patrimony are a flaked stone and a modified stone. In the 1970s, a cultural item was donated to the Anthropology Museum at California State University, Sacramento that was said to have been found on the North Fork of the American River, possibly near CA–PLA–34. The one object of cultural patrimony is a steatite pipe. In the 1970s, cultural items were collected from an unknown location near Bowman, CA, and at an unknown date, they were donated to California State University, Sacramento. The five objects of cultural patrimony consist of the following individual lots: flaked stones; modified shells; faunal remains; historic materials; and uncatalogued materials. In 1990, one cultural item was collected at historic Virginiatown, in Placer County, CA, during a California State University, Sacramento-sponsored field school.
