potentially hazardous substances used
to treat the unassociated funerary
objects.
In 1984, Bill Kilmer collected 26
lithics and indigenous ceramics from
9BR26 in Bartow County, Georgia. The
material currently housed at the
University of Georgia Laboratory of
Archaeology was collected by Bill
Killmer in 1984. These objects were
noted as being collected above the
burial and are being considered
unassociated funerary objects. No
known research has been conducted on
these objects. There is no record of any
potentially hazardous substances used
to treat the unassociated funerary
objects.
In 1991, a collection that is believed
to be from 9BR57, Garfield in Bartow
County, Georgia was transferred to the
University of Georgia, Laboratory of
Archaeology. It is unclear who
transferred the collection. James
Chapman’s name is associated with the
material housed at the UGA Laboratory
of Archaeology. The one lot (1983.9)
faunal remains are included here as
unassociated funerary objects for the
proveniences that contain ancestral
remains. It is not known what, if any
additional research has been done on
these objects. There is no record of any
potentially hazardous substances used
to treat the unassociated funerary
objects.
In 1951, Mary Kellog surface collected
five lithics, sherdlets, and unmodified
slate fragment from 9BR195, in Bartow
County, Georgia. Due to proximity of
proveniences with ancestors, these
objects are considered unassociated
funerary objects. It is not known what,
if any additional research has been done
on these objects. There is no record of
any potentially hazardous substances
used to treat the unassociated funerary
objects.
In 1951, Arthur Kelly and Mary
Kellog excavated 59 indigenous
ceramics, lithics, mica, faunal,
botanical, shell bead, and eroded garnet
from 9BR199, Cora Harris Cave in
Bartow County, Georgia. Because of the
nature of disturbance from looting at the
site, these objects are considered
unassociated funerary objects to the
ancestors excavated at the site. It is not
known what, if any additional research
has been done on these objects. There is
no record of any potentially hazardous
substances used to treat the
unassociated funerary objects.
In 1951, Arthur Kelly and Mary
Kellog excavated 329 indigenous
ceramics, lithics, faunal, glass, burnt
clay, botanicals, faunal, and shell from
9BR201, Raines Cave No. 2 in Bartow
County, Georgia. Because of the nature

of disturbance from looting at the site,
these objects are considered
unassociated funerary objects to the
ancestors excavated at the site. It is not
known what, if any additional research
has been done on these objects. There is
no record of any potentially hazardous
substances used to treat the
unassociated funerary objects.
From 1988–1990, one bird effigy pipe
fragment was removed from 9BR2
Leake, a site in Bartow County. The
collection including 31 burials were
excavated by University of Georgia
during those years and then housed at
the University of Georgia, Laboratory of
Archaeology. While much research has
occurred at this site, it does not appear
that any research has occurred on this
pipe fragment. There is no record of any
potentially hazardous substances used
to treat the unassociated funerary
objects.
From 1968 to 2009, 391 indigenous
ceramics, lithics, soil, burnt clay, faunal
including drum fish teeth, and flotation
samples were collected from various
periods of excavations and surface
collections were made at 9GO4,
Thompson, in Gordon County, Georgia.
These objects are considered
unassociated funerary objects due to
their proximity to ancestor remains.
There is no record of any potentially
hazardous substances used to treat the
unassociated funerary objects.
In 1968, WW Scheppler surface
collected 1,813 indigenous ceramics,
lithics, faunal, and shell at 9GO8,
Baxter, in Gordon County, Georgia.
These objects are considered
unassociated funerary objects due to
their proximity to ancestor remains.
There is no record of any potentially
hazardous substances used to treat the
unassociated funerary objects.
Pursuant to NAGPRA and its
implementing regulations, and after
consultation with the appropriate
Indian Tribes and Native Hawaiian
organizations, University of Georgia,
Laboratory of Archaeology has
determined that:
• The 2,739 cultural items described
above are reasonably believed to have
been placed with or near individual
human remains at the time of death or
later as part of the death rite or
ceremony and are believed, by a
preponderance of the evidence, to have
been removed from a specific burial site
of a Native American individual.
• There is a relationship of shared
group identity that can be reasonably
traced between the cultural items and
The Muscogee (Creek) Nation.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Abstract of Information Available
Based on the information available,
human remains representing at least
three individuals have been identified
from three archaeological sites. The
approximately 17,056 associated
funerary objects include lithic tools,
faunal bone and shell tools and ecofacts,
shell beads/pendants, post-contact
historic materials, samples: charcoal,
seeds, vegetal materials, ceramics and
pipe fragments, and crystals were
removed from 13 archaeological sites.
The human remains were removed from
sites in San Diego County near the Cities
of Julian (CA–SDI–4586), Poway (CA–
SDI–6669), and Santee (CA–SDI–20778).
The associated funerary objects were
removed from sites throughout San
Diego County, including near the Cities
of Alpine (CA–SDI–14283), Campo (CA–
SDI–15908), Del Mar (CA–SDI–4609),
Julian (CA–SDI–4586), Poway (CA–SDI–
525; CA–SDI–4606; CA–SDI–6669), San
Diego (CA–SDI–39; CA–SDI–14152),
and Santee (CA–SDI–20778). These
collections were brought to the San
Diego Archaeological Center between
1998 and 2015 for long-term curation.
The human remains and associated
funerary objects were unknown at the
time of delivery. They were identified
while preparing the collection for
permanent curation. The human
remains and associated funerary objects
were placed in the Center’s secure
NAGPRA Vault, awaiting Tribal
notification, consultation, and
repatriation. The project reports state
that these sites fall within the
traditional Kumeyaay territory. No
known potentially hazardous substances
have been used to treat any of the
human remains nor associated funerary
objects.
