Interested parties, including tribes and lineal descendants, can submit written requests for repatriation.

The Oregon Historical Society (OHS) has completed an inventory of human remains, identifying a cultural connection between the remains and certain Native American Tribes within Oregon, as noted in this Federal Register notice.

Competing repatriation claims will be assessed by OHS to determine the most appropriate recipient.
