Lattice QCD calculations are presented for the spectra of N* excited states with spins up to J = 7/2. Ambiguities of the standard method of spin identification are shown to be overcome by the use of lattice operators that transform according to SU(2) symmetry restricted to the lattice. Such operators are labeled by their continuum spins. Overlaps of the operators with the states obtained by diagonalizing matrices of correlation functions provide a clear link between continuum spins and lattice states, allowing spins to be identified. Evidence for an approximate realization of rotational symmetry in the N* spectrum is presented. In simulations with pion mass = 392 MeV, the low-lying excited states of lattice QCD are found to have the same quantum numbers as the states of SU(6)xO(3) symmetry. The lattice spectra are inconsistent with either a quark-diquark model or parity doubling of states and they suggest that the J = 1/2 Roper resonance may have a complex structure consisting of contributions from L=0, 1 and 2.
