Clearly Pre-American Indian. When do they come forward wanting their land back and reparations?

re: Elites in the culture.
Why is it that these 'researchers' try and apply todays culture on ancients?
Is it all possible it was just a fisherman lucky enough to find a gold nugget and took the time to work it up into a wear-pretty?

Isn't it more likely that the gold was a store of wealth — rather than simple adornment? It's not like there were safe-deposit boxes, or on-line savings accounts back then.

Okay, let’s just play pretend here.
If there were skeletal remains from which DNA could be extracted, and DNA tests show there are direct descendants to this person, hence the necklace, could direct decedents put claims on these artifacts?

Gold necklace found is 'oldest in Americas'Ooooh, you found my necklace!
