    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

    Indiana University has updated its inventory of human remains and funerary objects, previously published in the Federal Register, by correcting the number of individuals and items listed. If anyone from an Indian Tribe or Native Hawaiian organization not mentioned in the notice wants to claim these remains and objects, they must contact the Indiana University NAGPRA Office by March 1, 2021. If no new requests are made, the items may be transferred to the Three Affiliated Tribes of the Fort Berthold Reservation, North Dakota. This notice was part of the requirements under the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act.

    Simple Explanation

    The University of California, Riverside has completed an inventory under the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) identifying human remains and funerary objects connected to Native American tribes. The inventory found cultural affiliation with several tribes in California, including the Campo Band of Diegueno Mission Indians and others. Repatriation, the process of returning these remains and objects to the tribes, could start on January 29, 2025. If there are conflicting claims, the university will decide the rightful requestor.

This returning process can start at the end of January 2025, but if different tribes want the same items, the university will decide who gets them.
