SUMMARY:
Abstract of Information Available
Based on the information available,
human remains representing, at least,
six individuals have been reasonably
identified. No associated funerary
objects are present. Excavations were
conducted in 1992 prior to a FDOT
bridge replacement project along SR
A1A on Matanzas Inlet in St. Johns
County Florida. Fourteen burials were
identified during the original project
and pathological analysis was
conducted by Dr. Lisa Hoshower from
the University of Florida. It was
believed that all of the associated
remains had been repatriated in 1997,
however an ongoing collections and
curation project at FDOT has identified
additional remains from six of the
fourteen burials that were separated
from the original collection and,
therefore, not repatriated.
Cultural Affiliation
Based on the information available
and the results of consultation, cultural
affiliation is clearly identified by the
information available about the human
remains described in this notice.
