How can archaeologists continue to study ancient remains without infringing on the rights of Native Americans?

Sagot :

Most archaeologists  follow The Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act. Many of the archeologists have obtained memos of understanding with the tribes and consult with them before excavating. 

Therefore the rule when you find human remains is to back off, backfill, locate the site and call the tribe.
