The Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act, or NAGPRA, is an act that protects Native American artifacts, especially human remains, from exploitative or inappropriate use, especially in museums or laboratories. The Act says that all institutions that receive federal funding must return all Native American remains back to the tribe holding claim on them. NAGPRA also dictates that if a museum or laboratory holds a particularly sacred or important item in its collection, the tribe has the right to ask for it to be returned to them, or repatriated. Under NAGPRA, tribes also have the right to visit museums and their storage to ensure that they are properly storing their artifacts and properly displaying them. If they disagree with a museum's treatment of a particular object, they may begin the repatriation process.
Most modern archaeologists agree with the NAtive American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act, or NAGPRA. The loss of resources for study in museums is not as important as the proper treatment of Native American tribes, and due respect for their culture.
The Native American Grave Protection and Repatriation Act, or NAGPRA, was established in order to ensure that Native American artifacts, and specifically human remains, were treated with the proper respect. It came about after an incident in Iowa, when construction workers dug up over thirty human skeletons. Those of Caucasian people were quickly reinterred, but the Native American remains found were sent to a lab for study. NAGPRA also allows for artifacts to be given back to the tribe who lays claim to them, or repatriated. This part of NAGPRA applies especially to museums.
Yes, from the American War Graves Commission.
Generally speaking, they cannot. Our traditions (generally speaking) do not allow for their "study" of human remains, and burial contents of graves. It would be no different than me digging up your grandmother and dissecting her corpse in order to study your culture.
Pharaoh's graves are known as tombs.

Anthropologists and archaeologists learn about the lives of prehistoric people through the study of artifacts, ancient structures, burial sites, and other material remains. By analyzing these physical remnants and using techniques like carbon dating and DNA analysis, they can piece together information about aspects of daily life, social structures, diet, health, and more.
Archaeologists actively look for graves, because they provide small but valuable clues about the people and their cultures. However, no graves of the Anakim (or Anakites) have ever been found. The Anakim were mythical.
Tom Graves - American football - was born on 1955-12-18.
They often do, so yes. For research purposes and for knowledge of ancient civilisations.
It was an album of The Misfits. Michael Graves was the front man at the time and I believe it was his debut.
Both were American.
