Sec. B6-16. Findings.

For countless years prior to arrival of the first European settlers, the Santa Clara Valley had a rich history of native American Indian life. Our valley floor and surrounding hillsides contain the burial sites for many generations of these early residents. It was of the greatest spiritual significance to them that one's remains be returned to and remain in the earth. A central theme of the Indian religious and cultural heritage, it is of no less concern to the many citizens of Indian descent who reside today in Santa Clara County.
