    Reading Time:about 3 minutes

    In line with the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), the Florida Museum of Natural History has created an inventory of human remains and associated objects. These items have been linked culturally to Native American groups, namely the Seminole Tribe of Florida and The Muscogee (Creek) Nation. The remains and artifacts come from two Florida sites—Waddell's Mill and Marine Street. Repatriation of these items is scheduled to begin after February 18, 2025, with formal requests considered by the museum.

    Simple Explanation

    The Florida Museum of Natural History found some old bones and cool things that belong to the Seminole Tribe and the Muscogee Nation, and now they are planning to give them back to these tribes next month. This is all part of a special rule that helps make sure things are returned to the right people.

    The U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Nebraska National Forests and Grasslands plans to transfer the remains and an associated ceremonial object of a Native American individual, found in Sioux County, Nebraska, to the Oglala Sioux Tribe. This intent follows the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) guidelines. Claims for the remains and object need to be submitted by January 16, 2026; otherwise, they will be considered unclaimed. Disposition may occur after February 18, 2025, unless competing claims arise, in which case the most suitable claimant will be chosen.

    Simple Explanation

    The government wants to give back a Native American person's bones and a special object that were found in Nebraska to the Oglala Sioux Tribe, and if nobody else claims them by January 16, 2026, they're going ahead with this plan. They will decide who gets them if more than one group asks for them, and if nobody does, they'll figure out what to do next.
