SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Abstract

    The Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act 
(NAGPRA), requires museums to compile certain information (summaries, 
inventories, and notices) regarding Native American cultural items in 
their possession or control. Museums must provide that information to 
lineal descendants; likely interested Indian tribes and Native Hawaiian 
organizations; and the National NAGPRA Program (acting on behalf of the 
Secretary of the Interior, housed in the National Park Service) to 
support consultation in the process of publishing notices that 
establish rights to repatriation. The summaries are general 
descriptions of the museum's Native American collection. The summaries 
are sent to all possibly interested tribes to disclose the collection, 
should the tribe desire to consult on items and present a claim. The 
inventories are item-by-item lists of the human remains and their 
funerary objects, upon which the museum consults with likely affiliated 
tribes to determine cultural affiliation, tribal land origination, or 
origination from aboriginal lands of Federal recognized tribes.
    Consultation and claims for items require information exchange 
between museums and tribes on the collections. Notices of Inventory 
Completion (published in the Federal Register) indicate museum 
decisions of rights of lineal descendants and tribes to receive human 
remains and funerary objects. Notices of Intent to Repatriate 
(published in the Federal Register) indicate the agreements of museums 
and tribes to transfer control to tribes of funerary objects, sacred 
objects, and objects of cultural patrimony. Museums identify NAGPRA 
protected items in the collection through examination of museum records 
and from consultation with tribes.
    The National NAGPRA Program maintains the public databases of 
summary, inventory, and notice information to support consultation. In 
the first 25 years of the administration of NAGPRA, approximately 
50,000 Native American human remains, of a possible collection of over 
200,000 individuals, have been listed in NAGPRA notices. Information 
collected in previous years is of lasting benefit, and creates 
diminishing efforts in future years.
