Jenkins –

Gasser –

Jenkins - Freedom vs. privacy our problem.

Kintigh - How phrased; if say yes or no met with resistance. But if ask for comments, more chance to see materials.

Downum - What is correct?

Kintigh - Reviewer can stop publication.

Downum - Treat review seriously.

Mills - Different kinds of information that are useful. Depends on research questions, what data collected. Lots to draw from.

Downum - Sticky - copyrights, royalties. What kind of relationship have, formal or informal?

Dongoske - Comes back to researchers giving back to the tribe rather than personal gain.

Downum - Reciprocity, big issue especially with films and big works.

Jenkins - Major effort on Hopi is cultural preservation and protection, not only include individual rights, but traditional cultural properties. Continue legal proprietorship of information. Working out problems. Prepare for internally to recognize that transition happening and have to develop sophisticated tribal/village authority; ordinance. Exploitation of Hopi Tribe without Hopi permission. Hopi to have a draft ordinance.

Ferguson - Each tribe takes own perspective.

Dongoske - Informant has rights. Tribe too has rights to insure rights of its members and that sacred tribal information not given out.

Jenkins - Somethings worked out internally as to what will or will not be given out.

Mills - Native Americans should have co-authorship with archaeologists.

Kintigh - No one questioned legitimate knowledge, tribal rights. Accommodate native world views in archaeology. Maybe no archaeology.

Ferguson - Acceptance, process of archaeology. Want to be able to continue.
