collection of several hundred beads of various sizes and materials.
Cultural Affiliation
The human remains and associated funerary objects in this notice
are connected to one or more identifiable earlier groups, tribes,
peoples, or cultures. There is a relationship of shared group identity
between the identifiable earlier groups, tribes, peoples, or cultures
and one or more Indian Tribes or Native Hawaiian organizations. The
following types of information were used to reasonably trace the
relationship: biological information, geographical information,
historical information, kinship, other relevant information, and expert
opinion.

Pursuant to NAGPRA and its implementing regulations, and after
consultation with the appropriate Indian Tribes and Native Hawaiian
organizations Folsom History has determined that:
<bullet> The human remains described in this notice represent the
physical remains of one individual of Native American ancestry.
<bullet> The one lot of objects described in this notice 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.
<bullet> There is a relationship of shared group identity that can
be reasonably traced between the human remains and associated funerary
objects described in this notice and the Shingle Springs Band of Miwok
Indians, Shingle Springs Rancheria (Verona Tract), California.
