Question 2

The courts ruled in the Kennewick Man case that the 9400-year-old human skeleton

a. was most likely a lineal descendant of the Umatilla, and should therefore be repatriated to the tribe for reburial.
b. was not Native American as defined under NAGPRA, and that even if he were, he could not be culturally affiliated with any of the tribes who claimed him.
c. was culturally affiliated with the Nez Perce, as evidenced by the abundant grave goods buried with the skeleton that are very similar to items made by the Nez Perce today.
d. could be culturally affiliated with multiple tribes on the basis of archaeology and oral traditions, and that therefore the tribes would have to decide amongst themselves who would receive the skeleton.
e. was a hoax and was actually less than 500 years old.
