Repatriation

It's been 6 years since the passage of the Repatriation Act, whereby
Native American remains and artifacts held by federally funded
institutions must be made available for reburial or return to Native
American groups.
I'm curious what the effect this has had on anthropologists and
archaeologists specialising in the study of Native American prehistory.
Overall, has this hindered/helped Anthropological studies? Has the NAGPRA
increased dialogue between Native Americans and Anthropologists?
