Resources for Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation

The National Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) Program has announced their fiscal year 2014 grant guidelines.  Grants will be available to museums for documenting Native American human remains and cultural items in their care.  Monies will also be available for consultation with tribes regarding the control and treatment of NAGPRA-related human remains and objects.  More information is available at http://www.nps.gov/nagpra/GRANTS/FY2014/FY2014_NAGPRA_Grant_Guidelines.pdf.

Other resources from the National NAGPRA Program include online databases of inventoried items and tribal contacts, and videos that explain the consultation process.
