1995
The remains of more than 10,000 Native Americans unearthed at archaeological sites across the U.S. are in the possession of museums such as the Smithsonian.

In examining this debate, the program provides an excellent survey of Native American archaeology in the U.S. A BBC Production.Exclusion U
