Repatriations | Native Village of Unalakleet

In July of 2000 the Museum repatriated one human remain to the Native Village of Unalakleet, Alaska. The remains were recovered in 1969 from an archaeological excavation east of Kouwegok Slough near Unalakleet conducted by the University of Pennsylvania. Throughout the process of repatriation the Museum consulted with the Native Villages of Unalakleet, Shaktoolik and St. Michael, the Stebbins Community Association, and the Bering Straits Native Foundation.
