Although the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) was a major step forward for Indigenous rights in the United States, Indigenous conceptualizations of what constitutes burial objects often differ from the Euro-American perspectives that inevitably made their way into NAGPRA. As a result of this ontological discrepancy, well-meaning professionals following NAGPRA may not repatriate all the materials that have meaning for Indigenous descendants. Utilizing vibrant material assemblage theory (Bennett 2010) and ancestral agency (Crossland 2014), this research addresses the shortcomings of current burial material interpretations within museum collections and how these interpretations may affect the outcome of NAGPRA repatriations, specifically of burial mound assemblages. I explore this issue with a case-study: Cresap Mound, an Adena burial mound from West Virginia. I contrast how the material repatriation of Cresap Mound may be executed following NAPGRA's standard regulations and data from past burial mound repatriations with an alternative framework for interpretation rooted in materiality theory. The results show that before applying the alternative interpretations, Cresap Mound is at risk of only partial repatriation from an Indigenous ontological perspective. Following vibrant materiality, all the material contents of Cresap Mound including in any future repatriation inventory. These materials are vibrant members of the total assemblage and are essential for an expression of the Ancestral agency performed through the collection. This thesis demonstrates a method with which museums could further de-colonize the process of Indigenous burial repatriation. The interpretation of burial mound materials using new materiality can bridge the divide between Indigenous ontology and colonial archaeology to address the current colonial structure of American museums.
