DESTROYING BURIAL GROUNDS AND SACRED SITES
At Ataid Y. Lake's Hogan site, Peabody coal began bulldozing a burial ground. Ataid stopped them but not before a jaw and leg bone were unearthed. A couple of days later, Navajo Nation officials along with Office of Surface Mining officials arrived and inspected the area. The next day the bones disappeared without any notification to Ataid Y. Lake. So far the where abouts of the bones is unknown.
There is no doubt that the area is an archeological site because of the abundance of broken pottery all around .
