Notice of Inventory Completion for

Native American Human Remains and

Associated Funerary Objects in the

Control of the Ojai Valley Historical

Society and Museum, Ojai, CA

AGENCY: National Park Service, Interior.

ACTION: Notice.

Notice is hereby given under

provisions of the Native American

Graves Protection and Repatriation Act,

25 U.S.C. 3003 (d), of the completion of

an inventory of human remains and

associated funerary objects from the site

designated CA-Ven 132 and currently in

the control of the Ojai Valley Historical

Society and Museum.

A detailed inventory and assessment

of the human remains and associated

funerary objects has been made by the

staff of the Ojai Valley Historical Society

and Museum in consultation with

representatives of the Santa Ynez Band

of Mission Indians.

The human remains consist of a

minimum of 180 individuals. There are

also 12,118 funerary objects, including

shell, stone, and trade beads and

pendants; projectile points; crystals;

stone bowls; scrapers; fish hooks;

copper pitcher; bone, wooden, and

metal awls; square iron nails; shark’s

teeth; metal bowl fragments; stone balls;

clay tiles; and pestle and mortars. The

human remains and associated funerary

objects were excavated in 1969 by

Robert O. Browne at CA-Ven 132

(Awhay village site), located on private

property near Ojai, CA. The human

remains and associated funerary objects

were accessioned into the collections of

the Ojai Valley Museum that same year.

CA-Ven 132 has been identified as

Awhay, a Chumash village occupied

during the historic period. All

archeological evidence indicates that

these human remains and associated

funerary objects were interred during

this historic period occupation of the

site. 11,599 of the objects were shell,

stone and trade beads believed to be

parts of necklaces and bracelets or other

objects of personal adornment placed

with the remains. Mortuary practices

documented by Mr. Browne are

consistent with those used by the

Chumash tribe during the historic

period. Genealogical evidence shows

that families from the Awhay village site

relocated to the Santa Inez Mission

during the Spanish period and are

presently members of the Santa Inez

Band of Mission Indians.

Inventory of the human remains and

review of the accompanying

documentation indicate that no known

individuals were identifiable. Based on

the above information, officials of the

Ojai Valley Historical Society and

Museum have determined that,

pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (2), there is

a relationship of shared group identity

which can be reasonably traced between

these human remains and associated

funerary objects and the Santa Ynez

Band of Mission Indians. Further,

officials of the Ojai Valley Historical

Society and Museum have determined

that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (2),

there is a relationship of shared group

identity which can be reasonably traced

between these human remains and

associated funerary objects and the

present-day Santa Ynez Band of Mission

Indians.

At the request of the Santa Ynez Band

of Mission Indians, the Ojai Valley

Historical Society and Museum has

transferred these human remains and

associated funerary objects to the

Repository for Archaeological and

Ethnographic Collections (RAEC),

Department of Anthropology, University

of California, Santa Barbara, CA. The

RAEC has accepted this collection for

curation under the condition that the

Santa Ynez Band of Mission Indians

retains control of this collection.

This notice has been sent to officials

of the Santa Ynez Band of Mission

Indians. Representatives of any other

Indian tribe which believes itself to be

culturally affiliated with these human

remains and associated funerary objects

should contact Mary K. Porter, Curator,

Ojai Valley Historical Society and

Museum, P.O. Box 204, Ojai, CA 93024,

telephone (805) 646–0445 before May

18, 1995. Repatriation of these human

remains and associated funerary objects

to the Santa Ynez Band of Mission

Indians may begin after that date if no

additional claimants come forward.

Dated: April 7, 1995.
