The Gilcrease Museum in Tulsa, Oklahoma, plans to return several cultural items to Native American tribes, in compliance with the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA). These items include four unassociated funerary objects and five objects of cultural patrimony, such as baskets, which have significant cultural connections to the Tule River Indian Tribe of the Tule River Reservation in California. The repatriation of these items can start on or after February 18, 2025. Competing claims for repatriation will be resolved by the museum, and the announcement is also open for any additional claims from descendants or affiliated tribes.
