History and Description of the Cultural
Items
On March 15, 2011, unassociated
funerary objects from site CA–SAC–16
in Sacramento County, CA, were listed
in a Notice of Intent to Repatriate
published in the Federal Register (76
FR 14049–14050, March 15, 2011).
Subsequently, these unassociated
funerary objects were repatriated to the
Shingle Springs Band of Miwok Indians,
Shingle Springs Rancheria (Verona
Tract), California.
Following repatriation of the objects
listed in the 2011 notice, 290 additional
unassociated funerary objects were
found in the Anthony Zallio collection.
Zallio, a local amateur archeologist who
collected in the area during the 1920–
30s, donated his collection to California
State University, Sacramento. The 290
unassociated funerary objects are 269
shell beads, four shell ornaments, and
17 projectile points.
Following repatriation of the objects
listed in the 2011 notice, three
additional unassociated funerary objects
were found among the materials
recovered during the 1953 Sacramento
State College excavations directed by
Dr. Richard Reeve. The three
unassociated funerary objects are three
shell beads.

Following repatriation of the objects
listed in the 2011 notice, two additional
unassociated funerary objects were
found among the materials recovered
during the 1960s American River
College excavations directed by Charles
Gebhardt. This collection was
transferred from American River College
to California State University
Sacramento at an unknown date. The
two unassociated funerary objects are
one worked shell with ochre and one
modified bone.
Following repatriation of the objects
listed in the 2011 notice, an additional
98 unassociated funerary objects were
found among the materials recovered
during the 1971 Sacramento State
College excavations led by Ann Peak.
The 98 unassociated funerary objects are
89 vertebrate remains, one shell bead,
one invertebrate remain, one
groundstone fragment, one thermally
altered rock, one lot of charcoal, one
obsidian projectile point, one modified
bone, and two pieces of baked clay.
Temporally diagnostic artifacts
recovered from CA–SAC–16 indicate
that the site was used from the Middle
Horizon until the early Historic Period.
Linguistic evidence suggests that
ancestral-Penutian speaking groups
related to modern day Miwok, Nisenan,
and Patwin groups occupied the region
during the Middle (550 B.C.–A.D. 1100)
and Late (A.D. 1100–Historic) Horizons.
Ethnohistoric and ethnographic sources
indicate that the site was most likely
historically occupied by Nisenanspeaking groups. In summary, officials
of California State University,
Sacramento reasonably believe that the
ethnographic, historical, and
geographical evidence indicates that the
historic burials and cultural items
recovered from Site CA–SAC–16 are
most closely affiliated with
contemporary descendants of the
Nisenan and are more distantly related
to neighboring groups, such as the
Plains Miwok and Patwin.
Determinations Made by California
State University, Sacramento
Officials of the California State
University, Sacramento have
determined that:
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(B),
the 393 cultural items described above
are reasonably believed to have been
placed with or near individual human
remains at the time of death or later as
part of the death rite or ceremony and
are believed, by a preponderance of the
evidence, to have been removed from a
specific burial site of a Native American
individual.
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(2), there
is a relationship of shared group

identity that can be reasonably traced
between the unassociated funerary
objects and the Shingle Springs Band of
Miwok Indians, Shingle Springs
Rancheria (Verona Tract), California.
Additional Requestors and Disposition
Lineal descendants or representatives
of any Indian Tribe or Native Hawaiian
organization not identified in this notice
that wish to claim these cultural items
should submit a written request with
information in support of the claim to
Dr. Dianne Hyson, California State
University, Sacramento, 6000 J Street,
Sacramento, CA 95819, telephone (916)
278–6504, email [email protected], by
October 27, 2021. After that date, if no
additional requestors have come
forward, transfer of control of the
unassociated funerary objects to the
Shingle Springs Band of Miwok Indians,
Shingle Springs Rancheria (Verona
Tract), California may proceed.
California State University,
Sacramento is responsible for notifying
the Shingle Springs Band of Miwok
Indians, Shingle Springs Rancheria
(Verona Tract), California that this
notice has been published.
Dated: September 21, 2021.

Manager, National NAGPRA Program.
