    The Prescott National Forest is planning to transfer human remains found on federal or tribal lands to Native American groups through a process outlined by the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA). The remains, discovered in the Strickland Wash area of Arizona, are determined to belong to a Native American individual. Several tribes, including the Hopi, Hualapai, Yavapai-Apache, Yavapai-Prescott, and Zuni, have priority for claiming the remains. If no claim is made by January 20, 2026, the remains will be considered unclaimed.

    Simple Explanation

    The Prescott National Forest found some old bones that belong to a Native American person, and they are trying to give them back to the right Native American group, but if nobody claims them by next year, they won't know what to do with them.

    The St. Joseph Museums, Inc. in Missouri plans to return 67 cultural items that are considered sacred and of cultural significance to certain Native American Tribes under the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA). These items were donated by collectors over the years and include necklaces, baskets, weapons, and a cradleboard doll, among others. The repatriation is scheduled to take place on or after February 18, 2025, and involves the Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska, with opportunities for other tribes or descendants to submit claims if they can demonstrate cultural affiliation. This process is overseen by the National Park Service, which is responsible for notifying all relevant parties.

    Simple Explanation

    The St. Joseph Museums in Missouri wants to give back 67 special things, like necklaces and dolls, to Native American tribes because they are very important to them. These special things will be returned to the tribes, starting with the Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska, and this is happening thanks to a law that helps protect Native American cultural items.
