Hello, Adam and All.. Does anyone know the legality of a Native American being able to gather and sell meteorites found on a reservation?

I am fortunate that my wife, who is 50% Cherokee Native American, shares similar interests to this day. She has never once complained about my fascination and spending on artifacts, meteorites and other collectables. She recently joked about collecting land. We will need it for the rock garden she has put together while spending a great deal of time with the new and improved Team LunarRock in the field.

Some of you may recognize this artifact from a "documentary" show dedicated a complete episode to the piece. I do not agree with the show host's interpretations, felt the urge to rescue it from his laboratory (studio) and purchased out from underneath them. Many of these shows have no respect for such things and are more concerned with shamelessly promoting themselves. I am onto a meteorite that weighs several times the amount of this artifact, is located on private property which is for sale and surrounded by lithic scatter meaning early man was drawn to it. It will definitely be a pallet buster like this piece!
