I suppose it would be rather uncomfortable to find the remains of someone from my tribe on display in a museum. On the other hand, it would help spread the education about my people and past by allowing our heritage to be put on display. Its a situation in which both the museum and the tribe are correct in wanting the body, they both have a real good reason to want it. However, the tribe should have final claim to it, this is the right thing.
