Indian Hill Donation 1956

There is no report or documentation associated with these artifacts. Information on the original artifact bags state that the materials were collected from Mr. Paul Schmidt’s property on or near Indian Hill in Warrick County, Indiana, and donated by Mrs. William Ellerbusch of Newburgh, Indiana. The date, December 1956, may be either the date of collection or the date of donation.

The majority of items are human skeletal remains. Because of this, and because it is unknown how the single lithic artifact was found in relation to the human remains, the entire donation is being considered a Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation (NAGPRA)-related collection.

The digital materials in this collection were processed by the Veterans Curation Program (VCP), and include the artifact database, artifact report, and finding aid. Additional digital materials held by the VCP include the box inventory, card stock inserts, GBL artifact inventory, GBL catalog, document folder listing, and initial data collection. For additional information on these materials, refer to the Finding Aid.
