Native American Graves & Repatriation Hardback
Edited by Kathy J. Bergmann
Hardback
Description
In November 1990, the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) was passed heralding a balance to the relationship between the Federal government, museums and the Native American community.
No longer would Indian tribes and Native Hawaiian organisations be unable to resolve control of Native American human remains and cultural items located in Federal agency repositories and museum collections around the country.
Instead, NAGPRA gave Indian tribes and Native Hawaiian organisations a process for seeking their return.
This book is an examination of the healing, revival and trust-building as tribes and Native Hawaiian organisations work with museums and Federal agencies on mutual understanding and respect for Native communities, values traditions and ancestors.
