    The Peabody Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology at Harvard University plans to return cultural items to the Northern Arapaho Tribe from the Wind River Reservation, Wyoming, as outlined under the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA). These items include a medicine rattle and a headdress that originally belonged to Chief Yellow Calf and were acquired in 1931 before being donated to the museum in 1957. The repatriation can occur after May 30, 2025, and the museum will consider additional requests from Southern organizations with proven cultural ties to the items. The determination process is solely the museum's responsibility, and the National Park Service facilitates this announcement without being liable for these decisions.
