Description
This is a two-page typed response by Oowah Nah Chasing Bear to an article written by Tom Kenny that appeared in Bloomington Monthly, December 1987. Chasing Bear criticizes the language and attitude of archeologists towards the desecration of Indian graves. She claims that they only care about the disturbance of archaeological data and care nothing about the pain caused to Native Americans and their ancestors through the looting of burial sites. She also expresses sadness for those Indians who have become assimilated and willingly collaborate with scientists at Indiana University.
