a Herenberg site have been
unsuccessful. The one associated
funerary object is one eagle bone
whistle.
Based on the information available,
human remains representing, at least,
one individual have been reasonably
identified. In December 1991, the
individual was permanently transferred
from the Doty Cabin Museum in
Neenah, WI to UWO. The burial was
originally identified as ‘‘Doty Cabin
Museum Burial #2’’ when reported in
the UWO 1995 NAGPRA Inventory. A
card packed with the individual states
that the burial was found ‘‘along the
west shore of Little Lake Butte de
Morts’’, which is located in Winnebago
County, WI. No associated funerary
objects are present.

Abstract of Information Available
Human remains representing, at least,
58 individuals have been identified. The
80 associated funerary objects are bone
awls, bone beads, one possible bone
bead, bone pins, one incised bone,
modified bone, possibly modified bone,
one shark tooth, one sting ray spine, one
turtle shell, lithic bifaces, one lithic
blade, one possible boatstone, lithic dart
points, lithic debitage, red ochre (74
grams), marine shell, one modified
shell, and shell pendants. The remains
and associated funerary objects are
associated with the 1990–1991 and
1997–1998 Houston Archaeological
Society archaeological investigations of
41FB3, the Bowser Site, in Fort Bend
County, Texas. The burials and objects
were donated by the land owner to CAR
in 2016. The land owner retained most
of the grave goods. The remains consist
of 13 adult females, 25 adult males, five
adults of indeterminate sex, 13
juveniles, and two individuals of
indeterminate age and sex. The burials
represent Native Americans from the
Late Archaic Period, 2500 BC–AD 600/
700, based on dates of two burials
obtained by the original investigators.
Recovered point types, including
Pedernales, Marshall, Gary, Kent,
Morhiss, Ensor, and Ellis, are consistent
with the time period. No known
hazardous substances were used to treat
the remains or objects.
