Description

Explore the complex relationships between indigenous peoples and the archaeological establishment in this significant study by Laurajane Smith. This book provides a detailed survey of the difficulties arising from these cultural clashes and offers a way to move forward from current points of tension. Through lucid appraisals of major debates, the text examines key issues such as NAGPRA, the Kennewick Man case, and the repatriation of Tasmanian artefacts. Smith dissects the nature and consequences of these disputes, providing a deep look at how different cultures interact regarding historical remains. Readers will gain insight into how indigenous communities in the USA and Australia have challenged the pre-eminence of archaeological theory and discourse. The book focuses on how these communities manage and care for the material remains of their past, making it an essential read for those interested in museum studies, heritage management, and the politics of archaeology.
