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. 

Cultural Affiliation 

Based on the information available 

and the results of consultation, cultural 

affiliation is reasonably identified by the 

geographical location of the human 

remains and associated funerary object 

described in this notice. 

Determinations 

UWO has determined that: 

• The human remains described in

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. 

Cultural Affiliation 

Based on the information available 

and the results of consultation, cultural 

affiliation is reasonably identified by the 

geographical location or acquisition 

history of the human remains and 

associated funerary objects described in 

this notice. 

Determinations 

The CAR has determined that: 

• The human remains described in 

this notice represent the physical 

remains of 58 individuals of Native 

American ancestry. 

• The 80 objects described in this 

notice are reasonably believed to have 

been placed intentionally with or near 

individual human remains at the time of 

death or later as part of the death rite 

or ceremony. 

• There is a connection between the 

human remains and associated funerary 

objects described in this notice and the 

Tonkawa Tribe of Indians of Oklahoma.
