    The Field Museum in Chicago plans to return 17 sacred cultural items to appropriate Native American Tribes or Native Hawaiian organizations, in line with the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act. These items, which include objects like baskets and a medicine charm, were originally collected in 1901 from California counties. Repatriation is scheduled to occur on or after January 13, 2025, unless challenges or competing requests arise. The National Park Service oversees the administrative processes under NAGPRA but is not responsible for the determinations made by the Field Museum.
