Correct Answer !

    Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act. This act was passed by Congress in 1990 in an effort to provide further protection to the spiritual interests of Native American groups. Recognizing that Native Americans view all burial grounds, skeletal remains, and associated artifacts as sacred, the act calls for stricter provisions regarding the disposition of burial grounds, their illegal desecration, and the return of sacred remains and artifacts from public institutions to relevant tribes. The act also prompted the public funding of numerous research projects, including "Native American Burials and Cemeteries in Eastern Connecticut".
