    In accordance with the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), the United States Marine Corps at Marine Corps Base Hawaii intends to return human remains found on their property to the appropriate Native Hawaiian organizations or lineal descendants. The remains, which are identified as belonging to 57 Native Hawaiian individuals, were discovered between 1999 and 2023 mainly due to construction and natural occurrences like flooding. Eligible parties for claiming the remains include the listed Native Hawaiian organizations or any other not listed that can prove their claim. If no claims are received by March 18, 2026, the remains will be considered unclaimed.

    Simple Explanation

    The U.S. Marine Corps in Hawaii found some old bones on their land and wants to give them back to the right Native Hawaiian families or groups. They have until next year to find out who the bones belong to, or else they will be left unclaimed.

    The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has completed an inventory of human remains and determined a cultural connection between the remains and the Confederated Tribes of the Warm Springs Reservation of Oregon under the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA). The human remains, found in 1962 and currently housed at the University of Oregon's Museum of Natural and Cultural History, are those of one Native American individual. Repatriation of these remains may begin on or after April 17, 2025, to the interested tribes, descendants, or organizations, with BLM responsible for resolving any competing claims.

    Simple Explanation

    The Bureau of Land Management has found some old bones that belonged to a Native American person, and they're working to give them back to the original Native American tribes related to them. After April 17, 2025, they can start returning the bones, but if different groups want them, the BLM will decide who gets them.
