Kennwick Man update

Tribes have announced that they will not ask the Supreme Court to take the Kennwick Man case (Bonnichsen, et al. v. United States). That decision, as I blogged earlier, held that a skeleton found on federal land is not automatically a “Native American” simply because it predates the arrival of Columbus.

Much more info at the Friends of America’s Past website.
