    Reading Time:about 2 minutes

    The U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Nebraska National Forests and Grasslands plans to transfer the remains and an associated ceremonial object of a Native American individual, found in Sioux County, Nebraska, to the Oglala Sioux Tribe. This intent follows the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) guidelines. Claims for the remains and object need to be submitted by January 16, 2026; otherwise, they will be considered unclaimed. Disposition may occur after February 18, 2025, unless competing claims arise, in which case the most suitable claimant will be chosen.

    Simple Explanation

    The government wants to give back a Native American person's bones and a special object that were found in Nebraska to the Oglala Sioux Tribe, and if nobody else claims them by January 16, 2026, they're going ahead with this plan. They will decide who gets them if more than one group asks for them, and if nobody does, they'll figure out what to do next.

    In a notice published by the National Park Service, the Peabody Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology at Harvard University announced it has identified cultural connections between human remains in its collection and several Native American tribes, including the Oglala Sioux Tribe. The remains, mainly consisting of hair clippings, were collected from various Indian schools and reservations between 1930 and 1933. Repatriation, or the return of these remains to the respective tribes or lineal descendants, can begin on or after May 12, 2025. The notice details the inventory of remains and the process for requesting their repatriation, in accordance with the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA).

    Simple Explanation

    The Peabody Museum found out which tribes some old hair clippings belong to, and they plan to give them back to the tribes, like the Oglala Sioux, starting in May 2025.
