Abstract of Information Available
Based on the information available, human remains representing, at
least, one individual have been reasonably identified. A single box
containing the individuals labeled ``Herenberg Site, Winnebago County''
in the course of creating the UWO 1995 NAGPRA Inventory. There are no
records of this site in the files of the Archaeology Laboratory at UWO
and efforts to locate
[[Page 73435]]
a Herenberg site have been unsuccessful. The one associated funerary
object is one eagle bone whistle.
Based on the information available, human remains representing, at
least, one individual have been reasonably identified. In December
1991, the individual was permanently transferred from the Doty Cabin
Museum in Neenah, WI to UWO. The burial was originally identified as
``Doty Cabin Museum Burial #2'' when reported in the UWO 1995 NAGPRA
Inventory. A card packed with the individual states that the burial was
found ``along the west shore of Little Lake Butte de Morts'', which is
located in Winnebago County, WI. No associated funerary objects are
present.
Cultural Affiliation
Based on the information available and the results of consultation,
cultural affiliation is reasonably identified by the geographical
location of the human remains and associated funerary object described
in this notice.
