Reservation, Arizona; Hopi Tribe of 

Arizona; and the Salt River PimaMaricopa Indian Community of the Salt 

River Reservation, Arizona. 

History and Description of the Remains 

In December of 1939, human remains 

representing, at minimum, seven 

individuals were removed from site AZ 

T:12:3(PGM)/AZ T:12:9(ASM)/SRVSS 

Site 6/Villa Buena, located within the 

boundaries of the Gila River Indian 

Reservation, Maricopa County, AZ, by 

personnel from the Salt River Valley 

Stratigraphic Survey (SRVSS) working 

out of PGM. These excavations were 

permitted by the U.S. Department of the 

Interior. The human remains have been 

housed in the collections of PGM since 

they were excavated. Some of them 

were not identified until 2018, when 

they were encountered during a review 

of the faunal collection. The human 

remains represent two inhumations and 

five cremations. The decedents range in 

age from child to adult and all are of 

indeterminate sex. No known 

individuals were identified. The 16 

associated funerary objects are one 

miniature red-on-buff jar, one palette, 

one shell bracelet fragment, two 

turquoise fragments, one burnt daub 

fragment, one burnt insect nest, two lots 

of faunal bone, six lots of shell and/or 

botanicals, and one lot of stone and 

shell. 

Site AZ T:12:3(PGM)/AZ 

T:12:9(ASM)/SRVSS Site 6/Villa Buena 

contained ballcourts, house mounds, 

and a compound. Based on ceramic 

types and architectural forms present, 

the site was likely occupied during the 

Sweetwater-Civano phases of the 

Hohokam cultural sequence (A.D. 550– 

1450). 

In October of 1939, human remains 

representing, at minimum, three 

individuals were removed from site AZ 

U:9:15(PGM)/AZ U:9:13(ASM)/SRVSS 

Site 23, located within the boundaries of 

the Salt River Indian Reservation, 

Maricopa County, AZ, by personnel 

from the SRVSS working out of PGM. 

These excavations were permitted by 

the U.S. Department of the Interior. The 

human remains have been housed in the 

collections of PGM since they were 

excavated. The human remains 

represent two inhumations and one 

cremation. The decedents range in age 

from adolescent to old adult and all are 

of indeterminate sex. No known 

individuals were identified. The 10 

associated funerary objects are two shell 

ornaments, one lot of shell fragments, 

two lots of faunal bones, one polishing 

stone, and four lots containing 

plainware and buffware sherds.

Site AZ U:9:15(PGM)/AZ 

U:9:13(ASM)/SRVSS Site 23 contained 

trash mounds, burials, and a canal. 

Based on ceramic types present, the site 

was likely occupied during the EstrellaCivano phases of the Hohokam cultural 

sequence (A.D. 450–1450). 

In November of 1939, human remains 

representing, at minimum, one 

individual were removed from site AZ 

U:9:16(PGM)/SRVSS Site 24, located 

within the boundaries of the Salt River 

Indian Reservation, Maricopa County, 

AZ, by personnel from the SRVSS 

working out of PGM. These excavations 

were permitted by the U.S. Department 

of the Interior. The human remains have 

been housed in the collections of PGM 

since they were excavated. They were 

not identified until 2018, when they 

were encountered during a review of the 

faunal collection. The fragmentary 

remains belong to a middle-aged adult 

of indeterminate sex. No known 

individual was identified. No associated 

funerary objects are present. 

Site AZ U:9:16(PGM)/SRVSS Site 24 

contained a compound, a house mound, 

trash mounds, and a burial area. Based 

on material culture and architectural 

forms present, the site was likely 

occupied during the Estrella-Civano 

phases of the Hohokam cultural 

sequence (A.D. 450–1450). There is also 

evidence for later occupation during 

historic times (A.D. 1800–1939). 

In March of 1939, human remains 

representing, at minimum, two 

individuals were removed from site AZ 

U:9:14(ASM)/SRVSS Site 25, located 

within the boundaries of the Salt River 

Indian Reservation, Maricopa County, 

AZ, by personnel from the SRVSS 

working out of PGM. These excavations 

were permitted by the U.S. Department 

of the Interior. The human remains have 

been housed in the collections of PGM 

since they were excavated. They were 

not identified until 2021, when they 

were encountered during a review of the 

faunal collection. The fragmentary 

remains belong to a child and an adult; 

both are of indeterminate sex. No 

known individuals were identified. No 

associated funerary objects are present. 

Site AZ U:9:14(ASM)/SRVSS Site 25 

contained a compound, a house mound, 

a trash mound, and burial areas. Based 

on ceramic types and architectural 

forms present, the site was likely 

occupied during the Santa Cruz-Civano 

phases of the Hohokam cultural 

sequence (A.D. 800–1450). 

In May of 1939, human remains 

representing, at minimum, one 

individual were removed from site AZ 

U:9:28(PGM)/SRVSS Site 62, located 

within the boundaries of the Salt River 

Indian Reservation, AZ, by personnel 

from the SRVSS working out of PGM. 

These excavations were permitted by 

the U.S. Department of the Interior. The 

human remains have been housed in the 

collections of PGM since they were 

excavated. They were not identified 

until 2018, when they were encountered 

during a review of the faunal collection. 

The individual fragmentary remains 

belong to an adult of indeterminate sex. 

No known individual was identified. No 

associated funerary objects are present. 

Site AZ U:9:28(PGM)/SRVSS Site 62 

contained house mounds, trash mounds, 

and possibly a ballcourt. Based on 

ceramic types present, the site was 

likely occupied during the Santa CruzSacaton phases of the Hohokam cultural 

sequence (A.D. 800–1150). 

In January of 1940, human remains 

representing, at minimum, one 

individual were removed from site AZ 

U:9:35(PGM)/SRVSS Site 95, located 

within the boundaries of the Gila River 

Indian Reservation, AZ, by personnel 

from the SRVSS working out of PGM. 

These excavations were permitted by 

the U.S. Department of the Interior. The 

human remains have been housed in the 

collections of PGM since they were 

excavated. They were not identified 

until 2021, when they were encountered 

during a review of the faunal collection. 

The fragmentary remains belong to an 

adult of indeterminate sex. No known 

individual was identified. The two 

associated funerary objects are one 

palette and one figurine. 

Site AZ U:9:35(PGM)/SRVSS Site 95 

contained trash mounds and cremation 

areas. Based on ceramic types present, 

the site was likely occupied during the 

Sweetwater-Sacaton phases of the 

Hohokam cultural sequence (A.D. 550– 

1150). 

In 1963, human remains representing, 

at minimum, one individual were 

removed by a citizen from the 

‘‘Snaketown area,’’ which most likely is 

site AZ U:13:1(ASM), located within the 

boundaries of the Gila River Indian 

Reservation, Maricopa County, AZ. The 

human remains and an associated 

funerary object were transferred to PGM 

sometime prior to 1995. The human 

remains have been housed in the 

collections of PGM since they were 

excavated. They were not identified 

until 2018, when they were encountered 

during a review of the faunal collection. 

The fragmentary remains belong to an 

adult of indeterminate sex. No known 

individual was identified. The one 

associated funerary object is one lot of 

mixed shell and lithics. 

Site AZ U:13:1(ASM) was a large 

village containing canals, plazas, 

ballcourts, house groups, and a calichecapped mound. Based on ceramic types, 

architectural forms, and other material 

culture attributes present, the site was 

likely occupied during the SnaketownSacaton phases of the Hohokam cultural 

sequence (A.D. 600–1150). 

The Ak-Chin Indian Community 

[previously listed as Ak Chin Indian 

Community of the Maricopa (Ak Chin) 

Indian Reservation, Arizona]; Gila River 

Indian Community of the Gila River 

Indian Reservation, Arizona; Salt River 

Pima-Maricopa Indian Community of 

the Salt River Reservation, Arizona; and 

the Tohono O’odham Nation of Arizona 

comprise one cultural group known as 

the O’odham. Cultural continuity 

between the prehistoric Hohokam 

archeological culture and present-day 

O’odham peoples is supported by 

continuities in settlement pattern, 

architectural technologies, basketry, 

textiles, ceramic technology, and ritual 

practices. Oral traditions that are 

documented for the Ak-Chin Indian 

Community [previously listed as Ak 

Chin Indian Community of the 

Maricopa (Ak Chin) Indian Reservation, 

Arizona]; Gila River Indian Community 

of the Gila River Indian Reservation, 

Arizona; Salt River Pima-Maricopa 

Indian Community of the Salt River 

Reservation, Arizona; and the Tohono 

O’odham Nation of Arizona support 

their cultural affiliation with Hohokam 

archeological sites in central and 

southern Arizona. 

The Hopi Tribe of Arizona considers 

all of Arizona to be within traditional 

Hopi lands or within areas where Hopi 

clans migrated in the past. Oral 

traditions and material culture that are 

documented for the Hopi Tribe support 

their cultural affiliation with Hohokam 

sites in central and southern Arizona. 

Several Hopi clans and religious 

societies are derived from ancestors who 

migrated from the south, and likely 

identified with the Hohokam 

archeological culture. 

Migration from portions of the 

Southwest to present-day Zuni are 

documented in the oral traditions of 

kivas, priesthoods, and medicine 

societies of the Zuni Tribe of the Zuni 

Reservation, New Mexico. These 

traditions support their affiliation with 

the central and southern Arizona 

Hohokam archeological culture. 

Historical linguistic analysis also 

suggests interaction between ancestral 

Zuni and Uto-Aztecan speakers during 

the late Hohokam period.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is 

here given in accordance with the 

Native American Graves Protection and 

Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), 25 U.S.C. 

3003, of the completion of an inventory 

of human remains and associated 

funerary objects under the control of the 

University of California, Berkeley; 

Berkeley, CA, and the United States 

Army Corps of Engineers, San Francisco 

District, San Francisco, CA. The human 

remains and associated funerary objects 

were removed from around Humboldt 

Bay, Humboldt County, CA, and they 

are presently located at the University of 

California, Berkeley. 

This notice is published as part of the 

National Park Service’s administrative 

responsibilities under NAGPRA, 25 

U.S.C. 3003(d)(3). The determinations in 

this notice are the sole responsibility of 

the museum, institution, or Federal 

agency that has control of the Native 

American human remains and

Consultation 

A detailed assessment of the human 

remains was made by the University of 

California, Berkeley and the United 

States Army Corps of Engineers, San 

Francisco District professional staff in 

consultation with representatives of the 

Wiyot Tribe, California [previously 

listed as Table Bluff Reservation—Wiyot 

Tribe]. 

History and Description of the Remains 

In October 1953, human remains 

representing, at minimum, 20 

individuals were removed from CA– 

HUM–112 in Humboldt County, CA, by 

Albert B. Elsasser and James Allan 

Bennyhoff. The human remains had 

been discovered by F. Hodgkinson, the 

night editor for the Humboldt Times. 

The remains likely were exposed as a 

result of a United States Army Corps of 

Engineers, San Francisco District 

(USACE) project nearby, but whether 

they were removed from USACEcontrolled property is unclear. Some 

museum records suggest that they were 

under the control of the USACE, while 

others suggest that they were under the 

jurisdiction of the Humboldt County 

Sheriff. Because the matter of control is 

unclear, this notice is being submitted 

jointly by the University of California, 

Berkeley and the United States Army 

Corps of Engineers, San Francisco 

District. As most of the human remains 

were sorted by skeletal element, the age 

and the sex of the individuals were not
