The Reburial Controversy:
a general overview and exploration of a method for resolution of the ethical dilemma by Eric Pettifor at http://www.wynja.com/arch/reburial.html.
Bones of Contention, a transcript of a BBC TV episode of Horizon broadcast in the UK on January 23, 1995. The program examines the reburial issue, why American Indians want remains returned and some reasons why Indians don't trust the work of scientists.
This was a bit of info to enter. You can double check the data here as far as sites listed with the National Registry of Historic Places at the National Register Information System. Do a search by "State and Name". A number of these sites were found via a search of the NRHP database for the word "mound". Therefore, those sites which were not registered with "mound" in their name may not be found here until a more exhaustive check is completed.
Here's another place to search for information. The National Archaeological Database. View a map of archaeological site counts per county, inventoried between 1991 and 1993. Here's a map of archaeological site densities per county. A map of 1997 archaeological citation counts per county
