AGAWAM, MASSACHUSETTS (WWLP) - Workers installing a fence on Saturday came across something unusual. Human remains were found and have been identified by a Massachusetts State Archeologist as those of a Native American from more than 2,000 years ago. In a statement to 22News, Jong Peters, Junior Executive Director of the Massachusetts Commission of Indian Affairs said, “We try to respect the final resting place of our ancestors and try to negotiate with the land owner to find out if it’s possible to leave that person in their final resting place.”
