Repatriation and reburial of human remains

The repatriation and reburial of human remains is a current debate in archaeology. Various indigenous peoples around the world, such as Native Americans and Indigenous Australians have requested that human remains from their respective communities be repatriated for reburial. A famous case is that of the Kennewick Man in the United States. Similarly, contemporary Druids have requested the reburial of ancient human remains in the British Isles.〔(【引用サイトリンク】)"'' "> url = http://archaeological.livejournal.com/449932.html )〕
Repatriation in general seems to be concerned with objects, in the broadest sense of the word, ranging from human remains to art repatriation. But it actually is about people in the present and their perception of the past in the present. Repatriation claims are linked to politics, ethnic identity, and other debates or problems in contemporary society that have or claim to have a historical link to the object.
==Ethical considerations==

The controversy comes from the fact that some believe that it is disrespectful to the dead and to their contemporary descendants for their remains to be displayed in a museum or in other ways stored. A lot of the human remains are from archaeological excavations or old physical anthropological collections. They are mainly stored for scientific purposes in museums, medical collections and research facilities. Most of the research on human remains is done “In the name of science”. This expression has had magical and biblical power in the past, but less and less in the modern era. It is very difficult or even impossible to explain the use of archaeology for society. When discussing stakeholders and values in a repatriation case this has serious implications for the outcome of the claim. Comparing archaeological research with medical research one clearly sees a profound difference. Human life is held so precious that for this reason certain sacrifices are made, such as the use of human remains to save future human life. The most extreme case of violation is validated due to the results that can be attained in saving human life.〔Scarre and Scarre (2006). ''The ethics of archaeology : philosophical perspectives on archaeological practice'', p. 206-208. Cambridge University Press, Cambridge. ISBN 0-521-54942-6.〕 Archaeological benefit must be sought in the generation of ‘knowledge’ itself and the understanding of human kind.〔Scarre and Scarre (2006). ''The ethics of archaeology : philosophical perspectives on archaeological practice'', p. 207-210. Cambridge University Press, Cambridge. ISBN 0-521-54942-6.〕 The only question remains when does someone’s perception of ancestor desecration end, this can differ from person to person and from culture to culture.
