NAGPRA Human Remains Inventory: Making Our Work More Vsible

Author(s): Lourdes Henebry-DeLeon

Year: 2016

Summary

In 2008, Central Washington University NAGPRA Program and the Columbia Plateau Tribes created a more visible, participatory osteobiography process. CWU let go of the “culture of secrecy” around our NAGPRA human remains documentation process and found the benefits outweigh fears. The change showed the tribes what we really do and generated research questions from Tribal representatives.
