Tribes ask for
new hearing on
Kennewick Man
PORTLAND (AP) - Attorneys for
four Northwest tribes are asking for a
new hearing in the ongoing dispute
about whether scientists should be al
lowed to study the bones of the an
cient Kennewick Man skeleton.
Attorneys with the Nez Perce,
Umatilla, Yakama and Colville tribes say
a three-judge appeals court panel made
mistakes last month in deciding to al
low scientists to study the remains, in
stead of turning the 9,300-year-old
bones over to the tribes for burial.
They want the decision considered
by a larger panel of the 9th U.S. Cir
cuit Court of Appeals.
The U.S. Justice Department, a de
fendant in the lawsuit filed by eight
anthropologists seeking to study the
skeleton, did not ask the appeals court
for a rehearing. The agency still has
about six weeks to decide whether to
appeal the case to the U.S. Supreme
Court.
"No determination has been made
as to whether such an appeal will be
filed," said Blain Rethmeier, a Justice
Department spokesman.
In a request filed last week, the tribes
said the panel erred in defining "Na
tive American" and in interpreting the
Native American Graves Protection
and Repatriation Act.
In a Feb. 4 decision written by Judge
Ronald M. Gould, the three judges
upheld a 2002 ruling by Magistrate John
Jelderks of the U.S. District Court in
Portland. Gould said there was no sub
stantial evidence that Kennewick Man's
remains are Native American as de
fined by the act, and there was no evi
dence "that Kennewick Man and mod
ern tribes share significant genetic or
cultural features." Kennewick Man, a
collection of 380 bones and bone frag
ments, is stored in the University of
Washington's Burke Museum in Seattle.
