History and Description of the Remains On June 11, 2020, human remains representing, at minimum, one individual was removed from Hancock County, MS. The individual was discovered during maintenance dredging of the navigation channel at the mouth of Bayou Cadet, which flows into the Bay of Saint Louis. The U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers, which oversaw the dredging, retained control of the human remains until May of 2021, when it transferred them to the Mississippi Department of Archives and History. No known individual was identified. No associated funerary objects are present.
The Mississippi Department of Archives and History has determined that the remains of this individual are Native American through the geographical and archeological circumstances of their discovery, as well as through the observance of biological markers that are consistent with Native American ancestry. According to the geographical and archeological evidence, the individual was removed within 500 feet of the Lakeshore Midden Site 22HA502, which dates within the Woodland Period A.D. 1000.
Evaluation of the skeletal elements by the Mississippi State Medical Examiners office concluded that they bore biological markers consistent with Native American ancestry. The presentday Indian Tribes affiliated with the earlier group connected to these human remains include The Tribes.
