The Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act of 1990 provides a legal framework within which Native Americans can seek the repatriation of human remains and certain categories of cultural objects from federally funded institutions. This book analyzes the ways in which religious discourse is used to articulate repatriation claims.
