NANC gets a new member!

Greenville Rancheria, a Federally Recognized Tribe, has joined the Native American NAGPRA Coalition. We would like to thank Douglas Mullen, NAGPRA/Cultural Coordinator; Nathan McNeal, Tribal Council Secretary; Michael DeSpain, Environmental/NAGPRA Project Director; Gabriel Gorbet, Tribal Administrator; and the entire tribe for standing up against the exclusion of Native Americans from processes that affect their ancestral remains and for demanding that Museums comply with both the letter and spirit of NAGPRA.
