(also known as Cook Ranch #6), CA–
CAL–198 (also known as Canal Cave),
CA–CAL–217 (also known as Hagar

listed above during surveys and
excavations conducted in the 1950s and
1960s prior to the inundation of
Camanche Reservoir under the direction
of California State University,
Sacramento faculty and students
William Beeson, Jerald Johnson, Louis
Payen, William Hansen, and David
Boloyan. They have since been housed
at the California State University,

425, and 81–194.

two individuals have been reasonably
identified. On November 28, 1994, the
human remains were found by Public
Works employees who were checking
the area for storm related debris on

The coroner’s report states that the
individuals were found with one square
nail, but the one square nail was not
removed with the individuals. On
March 22, 1995, the Sacramento County
Coroner donated the individuals to the
Anthropology department at American
River College, one of four campuses
within LRCCD. No associated funerary
objects are present.
Based on the information available,

four individuals have been reasonably
identified. On an unknown date, the
human remains were removed from the
Sacramento area by Jeremiah B. Lillard
who was the president of Sacramento
Junior College, now Sacramento City
College, between 1923 and 1940.
Sacramento City College is one of four
campuses within LRCCD. In January
2024, the individuals were located in
the Sacramento City College Geology
