Amid efforts to find unidentified victims of the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre in Oklahoma, a forensic anthropologist discovered that one of three sets of remains exhumed last week included a victim with a gunshot wound
The remains were uncovered at an excavation site in the Oaklawn Cemetery this year while crews were working to find additional victims, according to a news release from the city of Tulsa. “During lab work, a bullet core was removed from the victim’s skull,” the release said. “At this time, experts believe the victim to be an adult male, though no definitive information on race or potential relation to the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre can be confirmed at this time.
However, only 26 death certificates were issued in 1921 for Black victims of the massacre, according to the city – 21 of which were reportedly buried in Oaklawn Cemetery. After an excavation in the cemetery last year resulted in 19 exhumations, the city began a second excavation on October 26. Since then, 26 burials have been found and four sets of remains have been exhumed and taken to an on-site osteology lab, Tulsa officials said.
