Abstract of Information Available Based on the information available, human remains representing, at least, one individual have been reasonably identified. No associated funerary objects are present. Site SDI-38 (San Diego Presidio) is located in San Diego County, CA and was excavated by SDSU in 1965-1975. SDSU received the individual in 1973; the individual was later accessioned as BIOANTH-002 in 2021 for NAGPRA-related reporting purposes. For unknown reasons, the individual was not accessioned with the cultural items and other individuals removed from the site (accessioned into SDSU's assemblage as CMP-SDSU-0400). Landscaping activities had previously taken place throughout the site including the use of nitrates, traces of which may be present with the individual. Cultural Affiliation Based on the information available and the results of consultation, cultural affiliation is reasonably identified by the geographical location or acquisition history of the human remains described in this notice. Determinations SDSU has determined that: • The human remains described in this notice represent the physical remains of one individual of Native American ancestry. • There is a reasonable connection between the human remains described in this notice and the Campo Band of Diegueno Mission Indians of the Campo Indian Reservation, California; Capitan Grande Band of Diegueno Mission Indians of California (Barona Group of Capitan Grande Band of Mission Indians of the Barona Reservation, California; Viejas (Baron Long) Group of Capitan Grande Band of Mission Indians of the Viejas Reservation, California); Ewiiaapaayp Band of Kumeyaay Indians, California; Iipay Nation of Santa Ysabel, California; Inaja Band of Diegueno Mission Indians of the Inaja and Cosmit Reservation, California; Jamul Indian Village of California; La Posta Band of Diegueno Mission Indians of the La Posta Indian Reservation, California; Manzanita Band of Diegueno Mission Indians of the Manzanita Reservation, California; Mesa Grande Band of Diegueno Mission Indians of the Mesa Grande Reservation, California; San Pasqual Band of Diegueno Mission Indians of California; and the Sycuan Band of the Kumeyaay Nation.
