This volume brings together Indigenous and non-Indigenous
repatriation practitioners and researchers to provide the reader
with an international overview of the removal and return of
Ancestral Remains. The Ancestral Remains of Indigenous peoples are
today housed in museums and other collecting institutions globally.
They were taken from anywhere the deceased can be found, and their
removal occurred within a context of deep power imbalance within a
colonial project that had a lasting effect on Indigenous peoples
worldwide. Through the efforts of First Nations campaigners, many
have returned home. However, a large number are still retained. In
many countries, the repatriation issue has driven a profound change
in the relationship between Indigenous peoples and collecting
institutions. It has enabled significant steps towards resetting
this relationship from one constrained by colonisation to one that
seeks a more just, dignified and truthful basis for interaction.
The history of repatriation is one of Indigenous perseverance and
success. The authors of this book contribute major new work and
explore new facets of this global movement. They reflect on nearly
40 years of repatriation, its meaning and value, impact and effect.
This book is an invaluable contribution to repatriation practice
and research, providing a wealth of new knowledge to readers with
interests in Indigenous histories, self-determination and the
relationship between collecting institutions and Indigenous
peoples.
