Native American Art
I'm not sure about transferring employees around, but I do know from my art law class that Indians can make requests such as this and the museum has to comply or not handle the piece. The museum would probably need to either hire another male to work with handling the piece or not accept it. The requests sometimes get more difficult. Some of the religious pieces aren't supposed to be seen by women. Imagine the difficulty with housing and storing a sacred object like that.
