I'm an archaeologist who works regularly with a couple of tribes and federal agencies on issues related to archaeological sites, burials, and development and environmental restoration in the context of the National Historic Preservation Act. What are your thoughts on the "federal trust responsibility" generally, or in the context of burials and archaeological resources?

I know it's kind of a specific issue, but I am always very interested in the answer from a native perspective. Thanks!

Edit: Typo.

It's not worth arguing about for any number of scientific reasons. Classifying humans remains that old as "European" or "Asian" is universally recognized as asinine in the genetic research and archaeological communities.
