    The University of Georgia, Laboratory of Archaeology intends to return two culturally significant baskets to the Washoe Tribe of Nevada & California. These baskets, which are considered objects of cultural patrimony, were originally from the Carson Valley and Lake Tahoe areas, dating back to the first half of the 20th century. The repatriation is conducted in alignment with the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) and is scheduled to occur on or after January 29, 2025. If other groups wish to claim the items, they must provide evidence of their cultural connection by the repatriation date.

    The University of California, Riverside has inventoried human remains and funerary objects and identified that they belong to Native American tribes, specifically the Morongo Band of Mission Indians and the Yuhaaviatam of San Manuel Nation. These findings are in accordance with the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA). The human remains and objects were discovered during a 1978 archaeological excavation and were misidentified as animal bones at first. Repatriation to the tribes will begin on or after January 29, 2025, and the university is responsible for managing any requests for repatriation details.

    Simple Explanation

    The University of California found some bones from a long time ago and realized they belonged to Native American tribes, not animals. They are working to give them back to the tribes starting January 29, 2025.
