After more than a decade of study, the bones of the so-called Tuqan Man were recently returned to San Miguel Island and buried by the Santa Ynez Band of Chumash Indians that had claimed him as their own.

"We made it a priority to ensure that our ancestor was laid to rest with a proper burial," tribal Chairman Kenneth Kahn said. "Protecting the final resting places of our ancestors is of paramount importance."
