with Amy Covell-Murthy, Collection Manager, Archaeology and Head of the Section of Anthropology

Learn about the archaeology collection, its connection to local history, and how we care for cultural material at Carnegie Museum of Natural History. Amy Covell-Murthy (she/her) handles the Museum’s Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) compliance and studies the importance of Human Remains Policies in collecting institutions. Let’s talk about the intersectionality of cultural respect and research!
