History and Description of the Cultural Items In 1940 or 1941, one lot of beans was removed from Santa Clara Pueblo in Rio Arriba County, NM. At that time, George F. Carter collected the beans from representatives of the East Delaware Indians of Okla., a term used for the modern Delaware Tribe of Indians. The exact breed of bean is unknown. The one object of cultural patrimony is one vial of beans.
In c. 1900, one hank of wampum was removed from an unknown location in Nebraska. It was collected by Frank B.
Hutchens from Indians who were being relocated by the government. The items were made of shell, and the place of manufacture was recorded as New Jersey. The one object of cultural patrimony is a hank of wampum consisting of 27 strands of cylindrical shell beads.
In 1904, 1,895 funerary objects were removed from the vicinity of Abbott Farm in Mercer County, NJ. These items were collected by Ernest Volk as part of his annual excavations in the area and sent to the University of California. The items collected were from funerary sites south of Trenton that stretch along Crosswicks Creek, from the Delaware River to Yardville, NJ. The 1,895
unassociated funerary objects are: 842
items described as lithics and pottery;
three sets of faunal remains; 62 items described as hammerstones and flakes; 511 lithics; 21 items described as lithics and mica; 27 items described as lithics, pottery, and bone; 115 items described as lithics, pottery, and charcoal; 93 items described as lithics, pottery, antler, and pipe; 220 items described as lithics, pottery, bone, charcoal and botanical remains; and one piece of pottery.
Determinations Made by the University of California, Berkeley Officials of the University of California, Berkeley have determined that:
Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 30013B, the 1,895 cultural items collected from New Jersey and 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. 30013D, the two cultural items collected from
