NAGPRA panel issues recommendation
Final recommendations from the NAGPRA panel
holding hearings for the last three days re burial artifacts in the
Advertiser
here
and the
Star-Bulletin
here.Basically,
the panel made a nonbinding recommendation criticizing how the 83 "Forbes Cave"
cultural artifacts were handled five years ago by Hui Malama, but stopping short
of asking that the objects be recalled, and just urging Bishop Museum to seek a
solution with all 13 groups that have pressed a claim to the
objects.
