NIOBRARA Neb. (KTIV) - The unearthed remains of nine Native American children, who died more than a century ago at a government-run school in Pennsylvania, are on their way home to South Dakota.
Friday morning, the caravan with the remains stopped at Ohiya Casino Resort in Niobrara, Nebraska, where members of the Santee Sioux and Rosebud Sioux tribe gathered for a ceremony with prayers and songs to honor the deceased students. Santee Sioux members say this was a big moment. Whenever you can recover the remains of your relatives that were deceased in another area, I consider that a victory said Roger Trudell, Chairman of the Santee Sioux.
