Check this out.........Notice that they had a LIST ACT...... Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (ANCSA) 1971 tm112munity.uaf.edu/unit-3/alaska-native-claims-settlement-act-ancsa-1971/ The Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act did not grant land to the tribes in Alaska, nor did it terminate their status as tribes as some thought that it did. There were years of confusion and debate after ANCSA’s passage before the Department of Interior clarified the matter by issuing the list of federally recognized tribes in 1993 and Congress confirming it through the List Act in 1994. The tribes roughly correspond to the villages organized under ANCSA. However, without a land base held in trust like Lower 48 reservations, the jurisdiction tribes in Alaska possess became subject to many court battles. AND.......... An interesting website, you are able to read short facts about settlement claims etc. and Tribal soveriegnty.................sound like same story US/State of Hawaii trying to do us: Federal Indian laws for Alaska Tribes tm112munity.uaf.edu/
