The program, titled \u201cRace, Science, and Burials: The Impacts of NAGPRA on Mesa Verde,\u201d begins at 7 p.m. at the Far View Lodge in Mesa Verde National Park, and is free to the public.<\/p>\n
The passage of the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act served as a catalyst for a change in relations between the Native American nations, archaeologists, museums and federal agencies. Mesa Verde National Park illustrates those changes on a world stage in which visitors experience the results of more than two decades of consultation.<\/p>\n
