I would take it to an Archeological Dept. at a university. Tell them you found it while hiking years ago and you have been wondering about it for years. Let them figure it out. I myself would never take it to any Indian tribal counsel.

If you dug up an M-16 would you take to the police?

No offense, but I do not recommend using the 'found it while hiking' explanation. Odds are that the item will be seized from you immediately as an artifact found on public lands without a permit. Then the university will sell your find and pocket the money.
