	Bishop Museum prepared to contest claims to artifacts - The Honolulu Advertiser - Hawaii's Newspaper
		The Bishop Museum has adopted a more activist role in contesting Native Hawaiian claims on cultural artifacts in its possession by asserting that it, too, qualifies as a "Native Hawaiian organization" under federal law.
		The museum's new stance is drawing fire from some in the Hawaiian community who say the policy defeats the intent of federal law enabling the return to native people of cultural treasures held by museums.
		The "interim and proposed final guidance" document, which has been approved by the museum board but will be refined after public comment, has been posted online at the museum Web site (the link is found at the bottom of the home page, www.bishopmuseum.org).
