Scientists protest tribal control over ancient remains
By Matthew Daly
Washington, D.C. (AP) Scientists hoping to study the ancient skeleton known as Kennewick Man are protesting efforts on two fronts that they say could block them from examining one of the oldest and most complete ever found in North America. For the third time in four years, the scientists oppose a Senate bill that would allow federally recognized tribes to claim ancient remains even if they can’t prove a link to a current tribe. They also are contesting draft regulations issued by the Bush administration on disposing culturally unaffiliated remains. |
