The Menominee Tribe reburied 67 ancestral remains returned under NAGPRA, highlighting ongoing challenges in repatriating Native remains nationwide.
The Menominee Indian Tribe of Wisconsin reburied 67 ancestral remains recently, following decades of efforts under NAGPRA, a 1990 federal law requiring museums to return Native American human remains and cultural items to tribes.
The remains, excavated in the 1960s, had been held by the Milwaukee Public Museum.
While this repatriation marks progress, thousands of remains and artifacts still await return nationwide.
Tribal leaders and advocates emphasize the cultural and spiritual importance of the work, highlighting ongoing challenges in enforcing NAGPRA due to bureaucratic delays and inconsistent compliance.
