TUESDAY, JULY 10, 2001 Tribal leaders from South Carolina and other states are asking Secretary of Interior Gale Norton for her help in repatriating a number of human remains currently in the custody of the state. The remains date to 800 to 1500 A.D. and were dug up when a company created a lake in the Keowee-Toxaway Basin in 1967. Because a number of tribes, including the Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma, have ancestral ties to the region, the bones could be related to all or any one of them. Get the Story:
