Just the tip of the iceberg. Wait a few months. Native Americans may demand Geronimo's skull be returned.

Geronimo's skull is trivial.
What is not is the qualitative implications of this line of reasoning:

The Louisiana Purchase.
The Purchase of Alaska.
The Gadsen Purchase.

Etc.

You obviously are not Native American. I happen to be one-quarter myself. What do you think would happen if it were discovered that Yale had Frederick Douglas' bones hidden? The whole campus would have been burned during the late 1960's.

You are correct. Many seem to confuse the resolution of ending a war as being a rape of one side by the other.

The Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo seems to get ignored by those living west of Texas in their state history education.
