## History and Description of the Remains

Sometime around 1915, human remains representing, at minimum, one individual were removed from the Bangs Burial Site (47-GL-0187), Green Lake County, WI, by J.W. Bangs. The human remains (47GL0187_BANGS.0001.HR.0001a through 47GL0187_BANGS.0001.HR.0005a) were reportedly taken from the side of a gravel pit, next to a gravely knoll. In 1991, William Bangs of Kingston, WI, donated the human remains to the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh. The human remains belong to a male, whose age is estimated to be older than 40 years. No known individual was identified. No associated funerary objects are present.
