Diego State University, San Diego, CA

AGENCY: National Park Service, Interior.

ACTION: Notice.

Notice is hereby given under the

Native American Graves Protection and

Repatriation Act, 43 CFR 10.10(a)(3), of

the intent to repatriate cultural items in

the possession of the San Diego State

University, San Diego, CA that meet the

definition of ‘‘unassociated funerary

object’’ under Section 2 of the Act.

This notice is published as part of the

National Park Service’s administrative

responsibilities under NAGPRA, 43 CFR

10.2(c). The determinations within this

notice are the sole responsibility of the

The National Park Service is not

The minimum of 3,000 cultural items

consists of cores, faunal material, flakes,

manos, and shell.

In 1978, these cultural items were

recovered from a burial at the La Fleur

site, SDSU–0093, SDI-6153, Jamul, CA.

No records from this excavation of

collection exist. The human remains

recovered with these cultural items are

no longer in the San Diego State

University collection.

Based on material culture, site

location, ethnographic information,

continuity of occupation, and

consultation evidence, the burial from

the La Fleur site has been identified as

American. Officials of the San Diego
