    The Peabody Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology at Harvard University has completed an inventory of human remains under the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA). They determined a cultural link between the remains and several Native American Tribes or Native Hawaiian organizations, specifically the Shoshone-Bannock Tribes of the Fort Hall Reservation. The remains, consisting of hair clippings collected from a 19-year-old individual identified as "Bannock," were taken from the Flandreau Indian School in South Dakota in the early 1930s. Repatriation can take place starting April 18, 2025, once suitable requests are received and evaluated.

    Simple Explanation

    The Peabody Museum found out that some hair from a Native American student in the 1930s belonged to a tribe, and now they are giving it back to the tribe because it's the right thing to do.

    The National Park Service has announced a plan to return a culturally significant item, a Blackfeet Hairlock Shirt, to the Blackfeet Tribe of the Blackfeet Indian Reservation of Montana. This action is in line with the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) and acknowledges the shirt's importance to the tribe’s cultural heritage. The repatriation process will begin on or after April 18, 2025. If other tribes or descendants also request the shirt, the park will decide on the most suitable requestor for the repatriation.

    Simple Explanation

    The park is giving back a special shirt to a group called the Blackfeet Tribe because it's important for their history. This will start happening in April 2025, and if others want the shirt too, the park will choose who it thinks should have it.
