    Reading Time:about 3 minutes

    In compliance with the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), the Milwaukee Public Museum has completed an inventory of human remains and associated funerary objects and identified them as culturally affiliated with certain Native American tribes. The museum plans to repatriate these items to the Menominee Indian Tribe of Wisconsin starting on or after January 29, 2025. If multiple repatriation requests are received, the museum will determine the most appropriate requestor. The National Park Service published this notice, but the determinations and responsibilities rest with the Milwaukee Public Museum.

    Simple Explanation

    The Milwaukee Public Museum is planning to give back some important items and bones that belong to Native American tribes, starting with the Menominee Indian Tribe. They checked everything carefully to know who these things belong to, but they didn’t say exactly how they decided who owns them or how they will handle it if more than one group asks for the same things.
