The University of California, Berkeley is working on repatriating thousands of ancestral remains and sacred belongings to the Indigenous tribes they were taken from over a century ago.
The Wiyot tribe in northern California is one of hundreds of tribes now in the process of taking back what was stolen from them. So far, the tribe has received more than 20 remains of their ancestors, according to tribe chairman Ted Hernandez. “Those people who think this is not a big deal or doesn’t matter: Imagine someone goes to your cemetery, digs up your ancestors, packs them in boxes and puts them on a shelf.
“When we bought our ancestors back, we held a ceremony for them, and that’s an important part of our healing process. As Wiyoti people, we are known as the world-people, which is bringing balance into the world,” Hernandez said. “By bringing our ancestors home, that’s part of bringing back balance, not to just the Wiyot people, but to the rest of the world.
