Rick Link,an Amateur Archaeologist in Idaho,uncovered Artifacts from a Native

Rick Link,an amateur archaeologist in Idaho,uncovered artifacts from a Native American NezPerce burial ground that was several hundred years old and belonged to the tribe.Ancestors of the present-day tribe had made the artifacts and buried them with their dead.The tribe asked a court to award to it custody of the property,which included burial pots,ornaments,and pottery.Link claimed that the property had been abandoned and that he could therefore claim title to the goods because he had taken possession of them.A court would most likely hold for Link because the property was abandoned.
