    The U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service at Aniakchak National Monument and Preserve, plans to transfer the human remains found on Federal or Tribal lands to the correct Native American families or groups, in line with the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA). The remains, discovered during an analysis at the Aniakchak Bay Village Site in Alaska, belong to at least one person of Native American ancestry and are currently stored in Anchorage, Alaska. The Chignik Bay Tribal Council and several other Native American communities have the first rights to claim these remains. If there are no valid claims by March 18, 2026, the remains will become unclaimed.

    The United States Army Corps of Engineers, Detroit District, issued a notice under the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) to return human remains to the appropriate Native American ancestors. The remains, belonging to a Native American individual, were found near historic Fort Wayne in Detroit, Michigan. Seven Native American tribes, including the Citizen Potawatomi Nation and others, have priority to claim the remains, but other descendants or tribes can also submit claims. If no claims are made by March 18, 2026, the remains will be considered unclaimed. Disposition of these remains is planned on or after April 17, 2025.

    Simple Explanation

    The Army wants to give back some bones they found that belong to Native American ancestors. They are letting Native American tribes or families claim them before next year; if no one does, they will be considered without any owner later.
