I don't know if anyone has mentioned the situation at the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History, where the Chumash are buried in a crypt at the museum respecting the descendents' wishes, complying with NAGPRA, and keeping the possibility of future study open. This seems to be one of the few situations where everyone was happy.
